Bio

New roleplay: https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/189457-the-eye-of-the-needle-where-fantasy-and-sci-fi-collide/ooc

Hey, I'm Catharyn! I joined the Roleplayer Guild on 2nd Feb 2011, then rejoined on the 17th Jan 2014 after Guildfall.

I was active every day until late 2015, accruing (i think) around 7k posts across dozens of roleplays. Then, I started working and had to gradually slow down my RP schedule. In 2017, I officially went on hiatus when other commitments got fully in the way of roleplaying.

This continued until the COVID-19 pandemic hit, when I suddenly realised I had a lot more free time in lockdown! So in mid-2020, I returned to the Guild with a vengeance. I also managed to get The Cradle 1x1 off the ground - a story i've had percolating for almost a decade.

My posting schedule has slowed down a bit now that the world has opened up again. I still love science fiction, fantasy and espionage themes, and generally aim for around 300 words per post.

Welcome to the forum! If you have any questions i'm always happy to help. ^^
The surveillance nets which BESC used to track the face and actions of every person within them had been used to great effect over the last centuries to seek out and eliminate insurrectionists. They were expensive to maintain though and Babylon was a huge city; there needed to be some strategy involved. A full strength net typically involved two dozen drones, a half dozen operatives to coalesce with the on site AIs as well as two squadrons of troopers with patrol vehicles to actually go out and snatch the perps. The cell that Neiman managed was fully equipped to manage one full net and he had complete executive control over it's focus. "Focus the Surveillance net around this apartment. Stack up on the doors. We're now on full alert ladies and gentlemen." Hyde called, standing tall with his hands outstretched as his men and women scurried around busily. Kinetic shields were wheeled in and put against the windows to absorb bullets. Striding over to a portable armory, Hyde opened it up and grabbed a standard issue BESC side arm and slotted it into his holster.
> Guys, I am extremely sorry about the map delay but something came up in terms of academics. I WILL have it up in the Next 24 hours. No problem.
Hyde exited the toilet and quickly got back to work, struggling to remain calm; the Bactralye was strong and overpowering but Neiman was a pro. He'd first been approached by a bulk distributor of the product a few years ago. They'd never been on first name terms and Hyde knew him simply as Mister Hill. The money being offered for making sure the operation remained below BESC's radar easily tripled his annual take home. Neiman had never been particularly loyal to any cause, least so the organization that was trimming his fringe benefits left, right and center. So he'd gladly taken the shady distributor up on his offer and enjoyed an unlimited supply of anti depressants. The apartment was buzzing with activity. Marksmen stationed at the windows scanned the opposite building for activity while operatives pored over the vast array of equipment. Neiman swooped around the room, directing traffic with a practiced ease. Pulling a holotab out of his jumpsuit and turning it on, the warm orange light painted his face with a rare splash of color. The assassin's vehicle and the various shooters with their profiles shot onto his screen from Tzu. With two fingers he selected the snipers currently assigned to kill him and plugged them into the surveillance network. Immediately their faces and possible location filled every screen and HUD. Several faces turned toward him but Neiman just smiled. "This just in from head office. We have a new primary objective: find and kill these assassins."
Just excited to start. :)
Posted my character in the CS section. ^^
Name: [Thales ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QhahoeHcvm0)Persimmon Sex: Female Age: 28 Role: Mage Liason ![enter image description here](http://i1194.photobucket.com/albums/aa365/Catharyn_F_Harrison/Character%20Pictures/Yvonne3_zps3feff21f.jpg "enter image title here") Personality: Thales, to most people, wouldn't be considered a 'nice' person. Compassion and kindness seldom break through the ambition and careerism Thales has made the foundation of her life. Her work always seems to come first and although she is a brilliant manager and strategist, her people skills could leave something to be desired. She'd good at reading people's strengths and weaknesses and will not fail to put them to use where they are most needed. Thales tends to snap and use biting wit as the go to reaction when faced with personal questions, usually distancing herself from people who she considers inconsequential to her income. History: Born to very humble parents, Thales grew up being told to keep her head 'beneath the parapet' so as to not draw attention to herself. It was at age twenty, when first her father died when their house caught fire and her mother went mad with grief, that she realized that she couldn't afford to do that. Nobody would remember her parents because they lived such unremarkable lives; to her it seemed pointless even being alive if nobody would remember her when she was gone. Over the next few years she completely changed her mindset to one of success and authority. She would become someone who'd be recounted in tales through the millennium. She honed the modest magical power that her bloodline possessed into something fearsome and passionate. Thales served in a variety of roles, from battlemage to courier but moved to Antioch in the wake of a series of military defeats at the hands of the Nazarene. Seeing the opportunity, Thales fucked and then murdered the Mage Liason to the city before taking his place. The cadres were slow to trust her but gradually warmed to the calm confidence and brilliant leadership she seemed to exude. One of her first tasks was overhauling the frankly archaic hierarchy the Order followed. Building a higher chain of command created more promotion and also made her more powerful still. The adepts in the order loved her for it and it was them who would be on her side in the event of a coup. Likewise, Thales maintains passable working relationships with the other Liaisons. While a driven individual, she isn't below exchanging favors if she's guaranteed a decent return on her investments. She has the kind of magnetic personality which will curry favor from weak minded people as well as make it easy to form alliances. Weapon of choice: A thin, short scimitar and an explosive mastery of magic. For no real reason she specializes in water related spells. To aid her Thales insists on jars of fresh water be kept at regular intervals on the city walls and in her private quarters. She even goes so far as to have a small purse of water on her person at all times to use if necessary. Having said this, she hasn't neglected other schools of magic such as fire and earth but her expertise lie firmly in the elements.
Don't mean to be a pain. ^^ I prefer developing IC is all.
That enough?
