Maybe I'll play Cyberpunk 2077 some more. My brother maxed out my character a year and a half ago. Haven't seen him since. Miss him.

”Mr. Dawson, why don't you have a seat?” He said, gesturing to the brown leather chair he had his hand resting on.

The men behind Adel stepped forward. They each placed a firm hand around his upper arms, half-guiding, half-dragging Adel to the seat. If Adel struggled in any way, their plan would have been quickly subduing him with a blow to the cheek - but besides tensing up, the man didn’t fight.

They shoved Adel into the seat, twisting it so it faced the mirror. Vincent still had that smirk on his face as he picked up a bowl of shaving cream and an applicator brush on the counter.

Slowly, methodically, Vincent applied shaving cream to Adel's face while speaking.

”Now, my men tell me that you and your spies have decided to make it your home in White Pine. Not that I care too much about that.”

He set down the bowl, picking out a barber's blade instead. He opened it, the fresh gleam of a clean, sharp blade within.

“What I really care about, though, is who set you up to do this.”

The blade pressed against Adel's neck as Vincent leaned over, staring at the man through the mirror.

”So, what'll it be, Canary? You gonna sing?”

"A million times I have done this charade. The moment people figure it out, I get the boot." she thought.

"But don't you want to see the fear in their eyes when they see who you really are...? Don't you want dominion of this place, just like how you were unchallenged in Vaal Kastrix?" said the Voice.

Ciara scoffed, immediately thinking of Gulliver and Valen. "I'd love to wipe the smirk off their faces."

"It starts by building a rumor. A rumor of power. This could be the place to start."

She took a deep breath, narrowing her eyes resolutely at the Undermage. "Head Advisor, with all due respect, you have no right to ask me about my intentions. If you want answers..."

She stood from her seat, rising to her full height.

"You'll have to duel me for them."

Post looks great, Lexi! The timeliness with Thierry is very intriguing!

I will aim to have a post up today or tomorrow!
Hi hi. We've boarded the cruise so I'll be out until Tuesday. Have a good weekend!


Enjoy your vacation, and thanks for the heads up!

@Squirrel98 Wonderful, looking forward to it!

@Vertigo Thanks for the heads up, can't wait to see it!



Tarin, Garden Plaza


@The Otter




"But, my lady, if you know who I am, then I'm sure you know better than to call me lord."
Callum


Anabel smiled sweetly. ”Oh Lord Prosser, were you sleeping during your classes? The children of nobility are all called lords or ladies as a way of being polite.”

Raiden looked to the side, smirking. ”And I imagine you were the teacher's favorite, my lady?”

Anabel fumed, stamping her foot again at Raiden. It was almost comical, seeing the small, round and puffy stature of Lady Furino, like a Caelin cream puff, making a fuss at Raiden. Raiden, in contract, was this dark, lithe and tall figure, at least twice the height of little Furino.

"...But, maybe, you mistake me for Allan? My father's heir and I are of a height, while our other brothers seemed to have inherited more of our grandfather's size. He's only recently started growing out his beard, without it we do look remarkably alike."
Callum


Raiden shook his head at that as he sat beside the young noble. ”Now why would I want your brother? No, you had the good fortune of coming to Tarin at the behest of the late duke himself. The All-force smiles on you, young Prosser. Your fate and mine are intertwined!”

Anabel leveled a flat look at Raiden. “That's just a fancy way of saying you've been stalking him this whole time, haven't you?”

Raiden twisted his lip at the young girl. “You want to air out the dirty linens? Fine, my lady. I might have been ensuring the safety of our young lord, but you, why are you here?”

A cheeky grin spread over his face. “You were stalking me, weren't you?”

Anabel's face grew hot, and she crossed her arms over herself, as if in an attempt to hide her secrets from the group. “N-no! Why would I do that?”

Her lips pursed together before she said to the side quietly. “Okay, maybe I was.” Then she spoke with more force. “But when I saw who you were tailing, I had to intervene! You, Mister Raiden Asher of the Sparrows, are not a man to be trusted! Especially not with a young, impressionable boy!”

Raiden gave a low chuckle. “Forgive me but, aren't you a young, impressionable girl then by that regard, my lady?”

Anabel fumed. “This isn't about me, stop deflecting!”

"I'd hate to cut this friendly reunion short by agreeing to anything too soon, something I'm sure you both understand. I need some time to get my wits about me, anyways—finding out the fate of those who were to bear my charge was quite a shock. Maybe we can all discuss it further through the day...or, perhaps, over dinner, once I satisfy my need of lodging?"
Callum


Both looked at Callum for a long, long moment, before exchanging a glance between the two of them.

Anabel was the first to speak up, coughing lightly into her fist, undeterred. “It just so happens that I know a fine establishment just down the way from this garden plaza. You would only need to say my name at the counter, and they would bill the lodgings to my estate.”

She held up a hand to quell any rebuttal from Callum, smiling sweetly. “Oh, I insist! You're a guest here, aren't you? It would be impolite to force you to pay. Besides, we will be discussing this more over dinner, yes?”

Raiden gave her a look. “Ain't nothing to talk about, my lady. Not with you.”

Anabel only smiled. “I'd dare to disagree, Sparrow.”

Anabel pointed east down the path, to a building with a hanging sign that read ‘Eagle Inn - Vacancies’. “There, Eagle Inn, you can't miss it. It has a tavern and warm rooms, and a place to bed and feed your horse.”

She began walking away, “Remember, give my name at the counter, and you won't be billed. I'll see you in the evening.”

Raiden sighed, watching her go, before he gave a look to Kai, his wolf. “Kai and I have some business in the city, so we will meet you at Eagle’s tavern tonight.”

He glanced back at Callum, standing. “Well, I’ll leave you to your meat pie, little lord. It is quite tasty.”

A small chuckle as he mounted Kai, and giving Callum’s horse a wide berth, made their way into the city in the opposite direction.

If Callum were to make his way to Eagle Inn, it would be noticeably nicer than most inns. Fresh wood floors, whole oak beams, and the smell of boiled milk and ale through the door to the tavern on the right. Straight ahead would be a counter with an attendant standing behind it, idly looking over parchments. To the left was a stairwell that would lead to the rooms.


Umbra: The Abyssal Connection


A world shattered into factions. A lawless world, plunged back into the near stone age from a fatal mistake.

The Umbra Corp, the ones with the most technology and an iron grip on the world, they have sent out their prized experiment to finally put the dark forces plaguing the world to rest.

However, ‘dark’ is a figurative term, and changes depending on who is speaking. Many forces depend on the darkness to survive. And many, many factions absolutely hate the Umbra Corp.

You raise your blaster, your laser sword and your spectral fist, ready to fight to protect what is important to you, and carve a path out to achieve your dreams.






Welcome to Umbra: The Abyssal Connection, a tale of hardship, grit, and survival. It is set in post-apocalyptic times, where society has collapsed due to a toxic accident that has changed the face of the world and reduced most of the population.

This will be faction-focused, with main factions being the Umbra Corp (the main baddies), Ghost Corp (armed resistance), the Wilds (the darkness and source of seductive power), and the Lawless (the boogeymen that prowl the broken world).

This is set at least 200 years in the future, so those with technology have space stations and a new tech called Abyssal Energy.

There is also a supernatural power connected to the Abyss that the Wilds use, and every faction covets this power. This supernatural power is what Abyssal Energy tries to imitate horribly.

You could play any one of these factions, as a Umbra Corp mercenary, a Lawless thief, or even a Wild stalker.

Ideally, it will be up to the group to work together and take down Umbra Corp, or fight amongst themselves and watch the world tear itself apart even more.




You can read the prequel story here, where three unique characters will be joining you.




Interested? We'd be happy to have you on this adventure extraordinaire. Sign up below!
@The Otter I legit can't wait, it's gonna be good. :)

@Donut Look Now No worries, that's why I'm here!
<Snipped quote by Estylwen>

I'd say we finish up the part we're on now and then get a new thread up and running.

Maybe get a Discord going?


Sure! Then I will wait on your guys posts before creating the part 2 thread. We will conclude this part fairly quickly I think.

Unfortunately I don't do discord, but I have found OOC and DMs work well for a successful RP.

That's fine with me


Great! One last round from you and Wayward, and then I will post the part 2.
I believe we are still waiting on three collabs from ERode, Click This, Psykers and Irradiant.

In the meantime, I'm still looking for IC posts from @twannyman, @ERode, @Psyker Landshark, @Irradiant, @Click This, and @Donut Look Now.

If you're working on a collab, I can wait until the collaboration concludes.

Twannyman let me know they're gonna be busy for the next week or so.

@The Otter I'll aim to have a response for you today or tomorrow; I'm trying to get you into the main story line at a reasonable pace. :)
@Ocelot79 Sounds good, looking forward to it!
Hey. So are we considering this RP open to new players? Or just moving forward with the three of us?


I can make a recruitment thread in the interest check section, for sure. Maybe we'll 'find' some survivors outside that can help us...

I'll have something up today or tomorrow for that.

Edit: Actually, on top of that, I would like to remake the thread so I can control it entirely. How do you both feel about moving to a new thread, @Qia, @Wayward?

I'd probably call it part 2...
