Got room for one more? Love me some Star Wars, sure as sure.
Hmm, well, do keep me appraised, yeah? Always down for 40k, at least give it consideration.
So, to provide the TL;DR summary prior to the info dump that I have below, I’ve started replaying The Darkest Dungeon again after a hiatus from the game and have found myself thinking a RP in its style could be rather interesting indeed. So, a small group of heroes, no more than four not including the character I personally use to help guide things along as needed, descending into another tale of the sins of the past haunting the present Steam Revolution. Players will be expected to realize that the stresses of the dungeon will not always turn out well for their characters, and indeed, death is a very real possibility. However, nothing says that another hero fresh to the Halls won’t fare better, right?

In short, think a Steampunk-esq restyling of the Darkest Dungeon in RP form.

Is Weiland
Is his Hermingja, Ermendrud


Much to Weiland's irritation, once he spotted the location in question where the lightning strike had occurred, it was already swamped by people. He really didn't feel like muscling his way in, and found himself pacing back and forth while his thoughts considered the varied remarks, most of them unfounded or otherwise not worth really considering. He continued to suspect magic of some sort, though he hardly spoke out loud of such things. He instead confided in Ermendrud, who was an ever present being, though she had been taught to not constantly monitor her ward's thoughts. "I am considering this an act of either a Magi, or resident being to Japan, what do you know of local legends of lightning beasts?" He could feel the hermingja consider his question, and her remark would have gotten a sigh of irritation if he was so willing to advertise his thoughts as being irritable. "Why, have you already forgotten the wide and varied beings that inhabit Japan? For shame, young Voss. Perhaps the name Narukami might ring a bell? Though, speaking of ringing bells..."

Before Weiland could consider what she was going on about now, he found himself colliding with a rather young looking local girl. Mid teens, given her size, light in skin tone and with hair that reminded him of a raven's wings. Curious, though her mouth and tone was hardly welcome things. His expression had that typical one he wore, idle amusement and pleasantness, as if always placating those he was, unfortunately, speaking with. She had remarked on not paying attention to where he was going, and his accent clearly marked him as a foreigner, though his fluency in the local language indicated either a great deal of preparation, or having spent some time in the locale.

"Ah, my apologies. And just after I got out of the habit of looking down when walking, too, I run into someone that would have helped with, such a shame. My thoughts were elsewhere, even if the point of interest is currently swamped with those, shall we say, quick to speak and slow to think..." As far as appearances went, Weiland might as well be a rather boring example of a foreigner, at a casual glance. Though one that might due to learn to be a bit more respectful, given the backhanded remark on her height, and when he was apparently at fault no less. Of course, Ermendrud simply watched, bound to do so unless given leave to manifest and act, however temporarily, upon the physical world. She did try to warn her host, after all, so she felt her part in all of this was done.

@VitaVitaAR
Working on a post now, expect it to be done within the next few hours, at the absolute latest.
Its not a long post, and I feel bad about it not being a long one, but wanted to get something done tonight as I had promised.

"This is rather outside your usual wanderings, Weiland..." For those that could see into the spirit world, they would see the feint outline of a spirit following the foreign man walking down the street. The foreigner in question, Weiland Voss, was not even attempting to blend into his surroundings. The German foreigner had been here for long enough to not be out of place for those who saw him doing his rounds on a regular basis, though he still got looks from those who don't look at him too closely. He was also outside his usual wandering area, so he got more looks than usual. He mentally responded to the spirit that followed him around constantly, bound as she was to his family, though not out loud, their conversation being exclusively in thoughts.

"The lightning strike in broad daylight. Foreign to this area, and I am curious. It needs investigated." Weiland was walking forward towards the location where other people were watching and looking around the area where the strike had occurred. Out of all the mysteries and tales going around this place, most disinterested him, considering the fact he had a spirit following him around on a routine basis. So here he was, heading to investigate something that could be as simple as a natural phenomenon. He ignored the various people and groups wandering about, investigating this or that, not even bothering to give them any second of his attention unless they were directly speaking about the unusual lightning strike during broad daylight. It struck him as something unnatural, as if someone else called upon it, either willingly or unwillingly. So the young man found himself walking towards the site of this strike, keeping an eye out for anyone or anything out of place, or warranting his attention in regards to the odd lightning strike.
Expect a post from me tonight, been delayed and I apologize about that.
Looking forward to it, I think we have quite the diverse group of folks to engage in shenanigans.
@Raineh Daze Hah, at one point I knew the actual meaning behind my fellow's name, but I am drawing a blank at the moment! I could look into it real quick like.
