In a Devil's Court.

@Dealdric I really like Dirka's concept, of a 'good' being way in over their head. Judging by the rest of us, she's in real troublesome company!

I'm sorry, but I'm gonna have to bow out of this project. You're all great, but the pace of which it is proceeding and a few issues that are cropping up for me IRL are making me question my ability to keep up at any level. Thanks for the opportunity. If it's alright with you all, I'll keep an eye on you, your writing is great.

I have the opposite issue, it's nearing night for me. May have to take it easy for some time yet if I can't get anything sane done now. :)

Vanessa Knight

Name: Vanessa Knight

Age: 16
Gender: Female

Nationality: American
Hometown: N/A
Date of Birth: 3rd November, 2002
Height: 5'8"
Weight: 134 lbs.
Status: Greenhorn

Weapon of Choice: Assault Rifle, Bayonet, Knuckledusters

Magic: Though Vanessa arguably has no connection or skill in anything magical, were such a thing to manifest, it might just take the form of an ability to enhance her senses, specifically her vision. Such a thing might even let her see creatures through their supernatural disguises, in the dark, in a storm. But who knows? It's not like she can do any magic!

Strengths:
Vanessa has a sharp eye and is effectively skilled enough to take an inpromptu position as a close-range sniper or point girl. She's strong and capable, with an impressive physique even before her admission. What she lacks in extra-natural ability she makes up for with undying determination and hard-nosed competence. She is a survivor and will look for the solution rather than worry about what might happen.

Weaknesses:
She appears to have little or no connection to the magical arts whatsoever, owing, at the very least, to never having had any talent activated. As such, she is immediately at a disadvantage when the magics come out, and without her weapons or restrained, there isn't much she can do. People could also theoretically make her zone out by talking about her parents.

Fears:
Vanessa has seen her worst fear come to life. Now she fears that the demons will overrun the earth. Deep down, Vanessa is intensely scared of demons - the more inhuman-looking, the worse they are. And, without any apparent reason, cats.

Personality:
The perfect picture of a put-upon war survivor, Vanessa is generally quiet and frowning. She has issues relaxing, and can generally be found looking for the exits and the best places for an ambush whenever she enters a new place. She is often on guard and tense, and has issues with standing up for herself in other ways than getting physical.

Dislikes:
Demons
Making fun of her heritage
Derision
Unprofessional behavior
Staying in one place for too long

Backstory:
Vanessa is the daughter of Lieutenant Reginald Knight, an army officer stationed in the Oceanic region. She moved around with him for most of her young life, adopting the style and knowledge of your regular nomadic military daughter.

Approximately two years ago, all contact was lost with the latest such of her homes, when the base on an island in the Pacific suddenly went silent. Investigation revealed a mass of blood and burnt buildings. Only a handful of survivors were found, two of which have since gone missing. Vanessa was found during day two of the investigation effort, locked in a basement with a whole arsenal of guns, covered in blood and clutching a knife in desperation. Few bodies were ever discovered in the area, but there can be - should be - no argument about what terrible events transpired to exterminate a whole base of soldiers.

On interrogation, Vanessa let slip that she fought back. Whatever transpired in the rest of the interview, it was enough to put her on the interest list, despite having no apparent lineage to speak of. Now she is at the school with nothing but trinkets from her past life.

Here is my submission. Can change if necessary. Also, pretty fun that @Arreyis and Vanessa could eventually complement eachother... Chuckled when I saw it.

I like this and kind of want to join. Is it too late to jump on the train?

Warhammer 40k: Beyond Civilisations Grasp... - A Rogue Trader RP (MK III)

I'm gonna face the music and say I failed in my mission. Didn't produce any character to be proud of, and I don't have time until wednesday to really sit down with it. I'm sorry :(

Warhammer 40k: Beyond Civilisations Grasp... - A Rogue Trader RP (MK III)

@Jbcool It is my intention to send something in soon.

In a Devil's Court.

I honestly can't wait for Lascivia and Lyria to have a conversation.

@eclecticwitch

:D

Heeeh, I doubt it will go well for anyone involved. If it does, I imagine it goes poorly for everyone not involved...

Supers!

Cool.
