Back-to-back busy days here, following on the back of a tiring weekend. Not that I post all the time in the OOC anyways but... *shrugs*

On that note, I'll have an IC post up tomorrow most likely. If I find a sudden burst of energy -or insomnia- it could be earlier, but more likely tomorrow.
"Semyon, you might want to stop antagonizing the nice reaper lady. She seems to have a tendency of tearing out people's souls when they step too far out of line."

He's not so great at listening, but nice to see more posts up to read this evening : )

A lot later than planned, and I've stolen the 'kamikaze werewolves' term from you, Derren -- sorry about that, buddy -- but a post is up! I'll have a follow-up of semi-heroic actions sometime this weekend I hope. =)


I was a bit slow on getting it trademarked, so go on a steal away : )
Drunken study sessions are some of the best sessions you can have. I think it's been scientifically proven.
Atticus didn't need to say it twice.

Semyon nodded towards the leaders of the company as they joined up with the group in the Hall, beginning to move with them when first Hoyle, then the other werewolf were suddenly injured. His gaze and gun spun around the area after each attack, frustration mounting as not a hint of their enemy presented itself. Powerful concealment and a silver blade, it didn't take long for the undead soldier to realize the two now-injured werewolves were likely the true targets of this assault.

As Bain pulled the gravely injured werewolf towards the shade gates, Semyon dropped down to the injured Hoyle while Max -Thadd?- set the room to raining. Tamarind was there, as Bain had called, but her eyes remained fixed in the older werewolf, not the one beside her. Understanding, he managed to catch her gaze, sparing a moment to gesture quickly towards the one she truly wished to help, nodding to let her know he would take care of things here. As she understood and set off, he moved slowly around his injured employer, scanning the area for any hint of a new assault, always ensuring he was leaning over the crippled man's exposed back.

Already scanning for disturbance as the 'rain' began to fall, Atticus' cry only sped up the inevitable. A quick glance above to the pointing demon, then darting down to lock upon the revealed assailant. Semyon's right hand snapped into aim while his left drew a second magazine from within his coat, and the his gun began to fire.

A sudden, rising roar tore itself from the barrel of his automatic pistol, the entire magazine running itself empty in mere seconds to pummel the area. Dust and smoke rose from where bullets had missed to strike the floor and walls, flashes of brilliant light sparking as incendiary erupted on impact. Semyon began reloading the moment his pistol clicked empty, pocketing the spent magazine and turning his attention to Hoyle below him.

"Sir. Sir we need to move." Crouching low by the werewolf's side, Semyon offered the man his shoulder, eyes looking out for any sign of their attacker. "Before he can hide again. We need to reach new ground."

His range of vision -as well as aim- would be limited as he tried to help Hoyle after Bain and the other, but he had comrades. Already that fact had allowed them to turn a disadvantage. So he chose the task he could best complete in this scenario, and hoped he had managed to at least slow their attacker down a bit, for his comrades to finish the job.
I can try my hand controlling Rangiku. I find her Shikai really neat, so it'd be fun to write combat using it.
The sudden, reverberating echoes of an explosion blew thoughts of anything but imminent danger from Semyon's mind. He shouldn't be hearing such sounds, not here. The keep was well-defended, the most secure safehouse of the company.

Yet it was under attack.

Swiftly loading his pistol once more, Semyon dropped the few magazines he had not managed to load with new rounds into his ammo box and packed it back into his bag. Prepped magazines were slipped into the ammo holster under his right shoulder and the interior pockets of his coat, before the duffel bag was slung over his shoulders and it's strap ripped tight. No risking it falling off or jostling now, the bag pinned his coat to his back, the Wight wasting on a couple seconds to ensure the strap would not get in the way should he need to reload.

That done, he broke into a sprint, slamming the door open and swinging his weapon up as he turned into the hall. No one greeted him, so he kept running, pounding down the hallway as his mind churned over what little information he had. Explosions and chaos, someone had breached the outer security, and so were likely well-prepared for an attack. His comrades were separated and unprepared, which meant ensuring their safety and gathering them together was the first priority. Tamarind, the older werewolf, Max -or Thadd- had been in the hall before, along with Nestor and Gabriel, and might still be there. They were first priority, then, once gathered they could move as a group to find the rest-

One of the grand windows shattered as Semyon entered the hall, causing him to take a sudden step back, gun and gaze snapping upwards.

Glass was all he saw, a grand shower coming down before him. He sidestepped away from the cascade, angling himself so his left shoulder was all-but brushing the nearby wall, allowing him to view almost the entire hall and those within. Pale eyes darted as he back-stepped along the wall, noting those comrades present while simultaneously scanning for anyone who might threaten them. No foe made an appearance, only the sudden, echoing roar of a newly-changed Tamarind. It was a sound that demanded his attention, and he found his own voice rising to follow in it's wake.

"Group up- Stay Grouped!"

He moved away from the wall, noting all who were near Tamarind. Max -or Thadd?- the older werewolf, as well as Henry Grimm were accounted for, a group already made and waiting. It gave Semyon a goal, and he aimed right for it.

His right hand was locked around his Stechkin, angling the weapon downwards slightly, but ready to raise it at the first sign it was needed. Empty, his left hand rested just in front of his chest in a loose fist, ready to lash out to grab, parry, or jab at an attacker. His legs continued to move, his eyes continuing to dart about, the tactics of combat now the sole thoughts one could find in his mind.

"You are all unharmed?" He gave a cursory glance over each, before returning his gaze to the area around. "Move as one. We should gather who we can first, better chance of defeating this attack."
Sorry to hear that Red, Akira was looking to be a fun character to write alongside.

Hope you get a new notebook soon!
From what it appears, the attack is largely centered around the legions of kamikaze werewolves charging the front gates of the London office, where a number of the characters are. A small force has infiltrated behind them into the keep proper, with two breaking off for the private rooms of Bain and Hoyle, while the last creates a distraction in the main hall, where most of the rest of the characters are.

It almost sounds like you have your character well outside of the Keep, Dannyel? If so you likely have an army between you and everyone else, so not sure how good the chances are of someone stumbling upon you right now.
Yui is a skilled Kido practitioner, but she tends to mix it with martial combat, serving more of a 'battlemage' or 'spellsword' role than a 'pure caster' role. I think Hansa and Fox's characters are similar in that respect? But they'd have to weigh in personally.
