Beyond the Gate at World's End

Unfortunately I'm going on vacation for a week starting Saturday, so it seems I'll be missing the start of the rp. But that's okay, I'm sure I'll be able to work my way in when I'm back

The Lodge Outside of Segaso City (RP is now closed by GM)

Sam found the button shortly after Boxcar had told him which side of the door it was on, there was nothing obvious marking it was different from the rest of the area so you'd have to either know it's there or be looking for it to push the button. Once Boxcar was out he calmed down immediately, and didn't sound very grateful for being saved, but his tail was wagging so Sam let the attitude slide and counted it as a win in his book.

The idea of food made Sam realize how hungry he was, he hadn't eaten anything since he woke up at about 6 that morning. Before that though Ashley reminded him he had something he wanted to say, "oh right, it's just something about what you announced to everyone upstairs." He felt his face getting warm, which had a much different meaning than someone else saying it, he hoped he didn't flame up. Why was he getting nervous all of a sudden? "It's just...you sounded kind of scared of how people might react, but I don't see what the big deal with it is." As he spoke he gained more confidence, Sam wasn't the best at talking to new people, but once he got going he found it much easier. "I mean, we've all got something going on with us in this house, right?"

Sam paused a moment and considered telling her about his heritage, then decided he would. Everyone would probably find out eventually, and Ashley seemed like a nice person so he'd tell her first. "I have some ability with fire, and I have that because," Sam looked around and lowered his voice without really realizing it, "I'm actually part phoenix." He let out a sigh he didn't realize he was holding in, it felt good to tell someone about himself. He also didn't feel warm anymore so he didn't fear accidentally bursting in to flames with Ashley right there with him.

I kind of want a power chosen for me, should I make a character first or will you give me my power first?

"Sam is fine, and thanks," he said to the professor, he figured fireproofing his room may have to go on the back burner for a bit, but he was glad to know it was something they could get to work on in the near future. He would have offered to watch over the girl they found at the crash site but after saying it the professor seemed to decide she was probably fine on her own. The offer to let him help cook was appreciated but he had to inform her, "I'm not that great in the kitchen, I can grill things and that's about it, I'll help out Ashley."

Speaking of Ashley, she now had the transponder to locate Boxcar and asked Sam if he was coming, "yup, coming." He walked down the stairs quickly, skipping the last few as he followed her around the corner and in to the basement. Sam was usually fine with basements, but that was when they had proper lighting, and the stairs had a proper railing. At least there was a wall to keep him balanced, he was really awful with stairs. Not that he couldn't use them, but he was always paranoid that without something to hold on to he would just fall down.

Sam figured now might be a good time to tell Ashley that he thought the werewolf thing was actually kind of cool, "hey, Ashley..." but unfortunately for him as soon as he started to speak she seemed to have picked up on Boxcar. "Never mind, tell you later," Sam went to the corner and heard her thuds on what should be ground sound more like a metal door. Ashley was trying to keep Boxcar calm, which was probably a good thing. Sam figured it might be a door the original owners may have wanted put in, but why was it hidden then? At any rate, Sam figured Boxcar must have found a button and walked in before trapping himself. So Sam started feeling the floor and wall near where Ashley was to try and find how to open it up to release Boxcar, "come on, the friggin' wolf can find the secret lever or whatever but I can't?" He was more talking to himself than Ashley at that point. It had to be a hidden button, there was no other obvious way that would open some secret door.

Interested, will we be choosing our powers or will they be assigned? Because this seems like a great type of RP for people to not have a choice in their powers

Beyond the Gate at World's End

@Mae YOU'RE BACK :D I just logged on and saw a notification like "what is this" and nearly fell out of bed when I saw it was you. I sent a character for this before, so I'm gonna keep that one, I'll just reply to the PM thread to make it easy for you to find

The Lodge Outside of Segaso City (RP is now closed by GM)

Sam thought the lodge was pretty nice, much nicer than his house ever was. Although a lot of the place seemed to be made of wood, which was not particularly fireproof. He was sure that wouldn't be too much of an issue though, except maybe in his room, if he had an episode while he was asleep that probably wouldn't end well. He hadn't had an episode like that since his dad had passed though, but he preferred to be on the safe side. The hot tub was strange but Sam knew it was something he'd enjoy, water dampened his powers so he was less likely to hurt anyone, but due to the nature of his powers temperature didn't affect him like it would a normal person so hot tubs always felt amazing no mater how hot they got.

At the end of the tour Ashley made her announcement to the group of them about her lycanthropy. He wasn't sure what she was so scared of, that everyone would suddenly hate her? Maybe Sam had just grown up in a very tolerant household, in a way it was necessary to keep himself in check. If he hated groups of people he'd be flaring up a lot more in his everyday life. She left before he could say anything about it, but Sam was sure he'd have time to talk with her, they were all living together now after all. He went out to his bus and grabbed his things, deciding to just leave it out of the garage for now, it was more likely to be in the way inside the garage rather than just off to the side of the lodge. Heading back in Sam decided to occupy the room next to Ashley, might as well fill in the rooms in order. He put his bags on the bed and just left them, he didn't really feel like unpacking yet, he could get to that when he needed something.

He left his room and saw the professor standing at the top of the stairs, he may as well ask her now about fireproofing his room. "Professor, I'm glad I found you, I was wondering, is there a way we could work on getting my room a bit more fireproof? We wouldn't want any accidents," he gave a small grin then noticed Ashley at the bottom of the stairs. "Hey Ashley," he looked between her and the professor, "I'm not interrupting anything, am I? Sorry if I am."

@Rockette in my mind they're physical weapons used to fight, so probably closer to an offshoot of telekinesis. I've never really built a character for an rp like this one before so any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm having a much harder time thinking of something than I thought. I basically have a note on my phone with the CS so I can work on it when I have time. This is what I have thus far

Possible concept, summons weapons as an ability. Was a criminal and was eventually brought in for the SOLDIER program. He worked with a crew, he was the tools man, always had the right piece of equipment no matter what situation might come up. A mole got in their ranks, there was a shootout, most of his gang died. He lived because he knew it was better to surrender and live to fight another day. He does something in prison, not sure what yet, to get the attention of those who select for the program. Probably a Blue Aeon, maybe another colour also.

Does that sound like something I could mold in to a working character @Rockette? I don't wanna invest to much just to have you tell me summoning weapons isn't something that can happen. And to make it clear, in my head they're weapons made of psychic energy, not actual weapons he'd summon out of nowhere

It's probably gonna be a while till I get a working character, I'm busy most of the weekend, but I have a question. Do the scientists generally try to match an Aeon to someone they think it'd work well with, or is it pretty much just random?
