[OOC] The Hidden People

[KuroTenshi]

<Snipped quote by KuroTenshi>

Not a bad idea, but the Guild is pretty stable these days and mahz is no longer working in Mexico and is out of contact most of the time. I'm rating the possibility of this place going under like that again to be low.

@HeySeuss

Once bitten, twice shy XD

[KuroTenshi]

Okay posted! I think that's the shortest starter post I've ever done @~@ I blame the coffee for not kicking in, I hope it's enjoyable to read at least

[WileyCoyote]

Awesome, I will. I actually have a Faery from another rp who would fit perfectly with this storyline. In that rp she works with a worldwide agency that investigates major supernatural happenings. It's comprised mostly of humans, with a few choice others for support, who only investigate when things get out of hand. She's been searching for an ancient demon for like 7k years now and had agreed to help the agency in exchange for any information she could find on him. She's a field agent though, on a very unofficial contract which means whenever the trail dries up she moves on to the next place. She's been searching through major cities the last couple of years, the most recent, and still ongoing in another rp being NYC, and I think if she got any wind of what was going on in New Camden she would either assume it was the demon she's looking for that was causing the ruckus, or that he would certainly be trying to join forces with whomever was taking over. I'd think it'd be pretty nice to send her on a separate assignment like this, I just gotta add some tweaks. c:

Also, for the "Yes, and:" should I be getting an okay from whatever characters I'll be making mine know somehow or should I just wing it? I'm also assuming there's only a need to know a few of the characters, and others she should meet IC, since she only recently would have gotten to the city?

[Trinais]

Meh, you can edit and have her follow Parry upstairs to converse there while we wait for the others to join in!

Oh yay! Thank you! :D

@WileyCoyote

Feel free to tie her to PArry in whatever way you want. Just know that he will not share being Nephilim with anyone, for any reason (de Lacy was a unique exception to this out of necessity, and Rikive would know based on what she is).

@WileyCoyote

You can totally wing it, I think, because the RP needs to quickly make character connections and it's part of the sheet creation process anyway.

As to that agency thing, it probably gets a bit of government work out of it. So perhaps she got sent into New Camden, only to find out that it's not so easy to get back and report in that no, it's not her demon, it's probably something a lot worse; Nemsemet is, and I keep saying that OOC and ICly, a certifiable nightmare.

Edit: The only thing I really object to is 7K years. I'd prefer a less over the top number. Maybe a parent got offed a couple hundred years ago and she inherited the obligation to continue the search -- that'd be a very faerie thing to have happen.

[KuroTenshi]

Okay, edited @Trinais

Better? :)

[WileyCoyote]

@Trinais
My plan was to have had them come across each other when he was traveling in Europe. According to her real backstory she would have been there around the same time for unrelated reasons. It would probably have been a "brief" encounter. Long enough for them to be pals, but probably not to have shared much more than a few laughs and light hearted stories. She's just coming to visit, I suppose.

@HeySeuss

Yeah that's what I was going for. I thought since she'd be relatively close to the area, and her search in NYC was coming to an end, it would fit that she got sent to check in there, and then to just take it from there.

As for her age, it doesn't particularly play a role in anything she does. She'd been secluded in the Fae Realm up until the last couple hundred years when humans began to become aware of the supernaturals living among them again. Her lover was killed all that time ago, and one of her wings stolen, but she's only been actively searching the earth for a couple hundred years. For this type of Fae they don't have access to their entire lifespans worth of memories or knowledge. Most of it is stored in the Fae Realm, and since she's stuck here, she's disconnected from the rest of her life. It's mostly backstory paint, it doesn't do anything for her character.

@Trinais@HeySeuss, yes, her arsenal is just supposed to be a selection of firearms. I wasn't even sure it should have been listed, since it's not hugely unique to her character. I'll clarify on her sheet, sorry for the confusion. (:

[solamelike]

Writing up my post, Flint has a base if they want to hole up there *wink wink nudge nudge*

[Necrophage]

I can post my sheet when work is done.

[teapotshark]

I have pinched my radial nerve and won't be able to post for a few hours at best, but I fortunately have most of my post written already so bear with me!

[Trinais]

Sounds good@WileyCoyote! Can't wait to play catch up! Feel free to make up whatever stories you want for their background!

I think a good rule of thumb for everyone, with so many characters in game, is to copy your whole post then refresh the page to see if anyone has posted while you've written. If so, just take a hot minute to rewrite and integrate into whoever posted before you.

@Exie

Coolness!

All we need is the "Yes, and" how you know the group (or someone in the group; again I volunteer Parry with the caveat you don't know he's a Celestial) and@HeySeuss's approval.

[solamelike]

Drunken Loner Joins The Fray!

[Trinais]

Drunken Loner Joins The Fray!

@solamelike

Coolness!

But may I make a request/suggestion? There's no way for us to know when the group would get to where you're waiting. You could be out of the "action" for quite a while. Maybe you're already at the Center because Parry called about the Flier, and suggest that we head to your place instead?

Give you more interaction than "Open another bottle and wait" and I'd hate to see you drop out of the gang because we couldn't get to you today.

@Trinais

So your saying I should be where you guys are?
Couldn't you head over to Flints place now?

[Trinais]

@solamelike, I will never tell anyone what they have to do with their character. But not everyone has posted yet, so people might be planning to post with us right now, at Parry's place. So if you want to edit your post to be there, you can interact with everyone now, that is absolutely fine and doable.

If you want to wait until we meet up with you, that is also absolutely fine. But Seuss is the GM and planned this story, so whatever he throws our way cannot be accounted for right away.

Ahh I see
I shall see what I can do
