I know I'm a little late but Dustin is by himself (with a lampost, near an alleyway)

Hi there! Mind if I join?
And, if so, which would work better for this RP, ice-related powers or the ability to command/communicate with animals? I don't know if that second one would be too overpowered or not. Ice is my backup if so.

[KatherinWinter]

@SephietheEvil either would be acceptable.

Katherin came inside the restaurant.

Appearance:

Name: Maxie Lynette

Age: 18

Power: Creature Manipulation- Can communicate with animals, and control them as long as she has the energy to do so

Bio: Ever since she was little, Maxie had been defined as "different" from all those around her. The girl suffered from social anxiety, and found it much harder to interact with other human beings than normal people would. She spent most of her time with animals wherever she was, whether it be a friend's house, relative's house, or her own house. It there weren't any animals around for her to be with, she'd stay eerily quiet, and sit in whichever place had the least people in it. When she was a young child, her parents wrote it off as "cute", but as she grew older, they started tiring of her odd behavior. They accused her of acting so cold just to get out of talking to people and so on. So, Maxie did what she thought was easiest.
Maxie ran away. Straight into the wilderness. In all honesty, she felt more at home there than she ever had back in her home.
By the time night fell on the first day of her journey, Maxie stopped under a tree in order to rest, but noticed something odd sticking out of the bark. It was what looked like a jagged piece of glass, glowing faintly in the dark like the eye of a cat. Maxie brought her hand forward to run a finger over the smooth side of the shard, to further investigate it, but when she touched it, the glow concentrated around where the had touched it, then faded away. The shard disappeared with it. Maxie was a little creeped out, especially when a sudden wave of whispers flooded her mind, but she figured it was just fatigue and stress eating at her anxious mind. She ignored the whispers as much as she could and fell asleep.
The next day, she awoke to find that several different animals were gathered around her. This didn't bother her at all, and in fact brought her great joy at first to have them around her, following wherever she went. Then....the people came. When people from the nearby city entered the wild, she suddenly felt...bad. Her senses tightened on the humans, and she felt this animal instinct take over. Voices were commanding her to kill those on her territory. She had no problem listening, and sending her little pack of animals after them.
That was only about two weeks ago. Maxie has since then taken to living in dark alleys, wherever stray or wild animals are hanging around. Every once in awhile she takes a walk in the wilderness, but the lack of supplies out there keeps her living in the city.

@SephietheEvilI have two problems with her.
1. I don't understand this and found it leagues harder to interact with other human beings than normal people would.
2. If she lives in the wilderness how is she going to interact with the othrrs?

@KatherinWinter

Oh! Okay, sorry. Well, the best way I can explain the first one is that she's just really bad at social interaction. She can talk to people, but she's sort of afraid of them at the same time. "leagues harder" is just another way to say "super difficult".
As for the second thing, I was thinking about that too today (I wrote that CS at about 3 in the morning last night <XD). There's a couple things I could do to remedy the situation. I could make it so that she refuses to hunt/eat the animals around her, and needs to find food elsewhere. That, or I could just have her live in alleys with stray cats XD Whichever works better for you!

[KatherinWinter]

@SephietheEvil
Ok. I suppose the first one makes sense it's just worded weirdly. Secondly it's fine if she lives in the woods. But she is going to be very limited on how and when she can interact with the others which there wont be much chance for character growth. She wont be a big part of the story. You will have little reason to post.

[SephietheEvil]

@KatherinWinter
Ah, I gotcha. I can edit it so that she lives somewhere in the city then, no problem :3

[KatherinWinter]

@SephietheEvil either is fine it depends on what you want out of this RP

[ShadowVentus]

@KatherinWinter

I think what I did with Taka was too much to process. X'D

[KatherinWinter]

@ShadowVentus huh??

[ShadowVentus]

@KatherinWinter

@Arakadin hasn't been on in over a week. I think he's still processing the info bomb I just laid upon him through Taka. XD

[SephietheEvil]

@KatherinWinter

Well, you're right though. It'd be easier if I just put her in the city!
I edited my CS above :3

[KatherinWinter]

@SephietheEvilapproved

[SephietheEvil]

@KatherinWinter

Thanks! I'll go ahead and start writing then!

[KatherinWinter]
