The criminal underworld has taken notice, though for the longest time the supposed Lunar Legionaire was nothing but an urban legend. A story told to scare criminals into second-guessing themselves. Perhaps it’s still true. But there are people who believe the stories that the thugs and gangsters that stalk New York at night tell about a moon-crazed lunatic that hunts down the worst and the weird. It is a reality that Moon Knight enjoys. Sometimes a little too much.

This version of Marc Spector is a few separate ideas brought together in this fresh universe, not focusing entirely on the Khonshu mythology but more identifying a broken shell of a man who has been trying to achieve his mission to protect others from the wicked and the weird no matter the personal cost. And Marc at this point has achieved a lot of cost throughout his dealings with his traditional rogues gallery, cults, and secret societies who wish the urban legend great harm. He’s lost pretty much everyone who dedicated themselves to his mission. A deep regret Marc has is that he put people in harm’s way that should’ve never been involved in the first place. In New York City he’s committed himself to carrying on in spite of his loss. In this game I will explore a older Marc Spector who has more experience than some of the other heroes around him and is struggling with the ambiguity of Khonshu, his own emotional and mental wounds, and how he chooses to push forward. Stories will jump around as needed in a loose format jumping from pulpy serialized moments and great hints at narrative. There will be room for collaboration with other New York heroes, but right now I want to get one foot in the door.

For it is Khonshu who whispers in my ear often, alluding to things that persist yet do not persist at the same time. Reality becomes hard to discern beyond the cries of people in the night, but somehow I’m at peace with it. In recent weeks there’s been a dream where there’s flashes of water. Tar-like water. Water that consumes and engulfs. But it isn’t water. It’s something else. Khonshu is rarely clear to me, as his whims are not orders but vague murmurs and prophecies. Metaphors and glimpses. Scenes are out of order with no color or sound yet distorted and loud. It’s enough to drive a normal man insane a dozen times over. But fortunately for me, I was already insane in the first place when Khonshu began to unravel my brain like a ball of twine. Somehow I have lived over a decade piecing together the madness and the truth. Somehow my brain and body are still here. Partially. Heh. But unlike the dogs from a few days ago, I can’t remotely place the water or its meaning. Could be just a dream that has nothing to do with Khonshu. That’s happened before. But I don’t think that’s what’s happening here. Maybe I need more time to piece it together. Khonshu you enlightened bastard, work with me for once. Then again? There's no time to squabble with the voices in my head. I've got a date with a creepy schmuck who lives in the dark.[/indent][/indent] [INDENT][B][SUP][SUB][color=gray][H3]P O S T C A T A L O G:[/H3][/color][/SUB][/SUP][/B][/INDENT][hr][INDENT][INDENT][i]A list linking to your IC posts as they're created.
