@Mike73 I should mention that Paige doesn't actually have a free hand for Grant to hold right now. One holding Nate's, one holding her crutch. You'll have to find another way to make that work.

@Ciaran

Hold her arm!

Hillview High - Mason Square.

Justin immediately stuck both of his hands out, and his Soul-Self - taking the shape of a phoenix - let out a victorious screech as it flew through the air. It moved faster than sight, as it spit burning flames at the Glutton's tendrils. The flames merely caused some of them to shrivel up and retract, but were never destroyed. The Soul-Self cycled around the Glutton barraging it with so much flames that it was engulfed. However, the heat could be felt from quite a distance, and it was setting the school ablaze. The school was hardly the most stable place to begin with, and Justin was inadvertently making their escape harder.

Though, the soul-self represented his emotions, that just left all the logic behind. He stood there blankly as he watched the scene, he took a few moments to observe the situation before making a decision. I should leave the area. He turned his head to the right before noting that they were helping Maddie, and Nathan had a way to escape. Penny was desperately calling them to come along and Justin followed. Though, he came to a stop when he felt a twinge of pain surge through him as the Glutton's hand extended through the flames and pinned the Phoenix to the wall. He fell to his knees, but then he felt two arms lift him up - Kimberly and Jordan.

He smiled as the Soul-Self faded away, but he got the idea that what he had wasn't good enough. "Oh fuck!" He shouted. He took Penny's hand while Jordan and Kimberly took his, then each others. Lynette on the other hand was desperately trying her best to give the group an opening. She drew a giant glyph on the ground of ice, and ran over to the group and took one's hand as Britney approached from the rear.

The Glutton sent all of it's remaining tentacles at the group - however, he mainly hit their previous position. But, plenty of the tendrils hit dangerously close. Lynette activated her ice glyph and icicle spikes rose from the ground to shield the group... however it did little to stop the tentacles as they were consumed by the being pretty much effortlessly.

They were creeping through about to pierce the group.

@pokemad1

dont really know what to post except Maddie getting knocked out from being thrown to the wall.

@Majoras End

Have your characters get murdered by the Glutton. Speaking of which, I hope I'm presenting our big bad as an incomprehensible eldritch abomination like I intend on it being.

Zack Hemsey - Greeting the Menace

A light appeared from within the orb - an orange light - started out as a mere dot but grew and expanded in size with each passing second. The being vibrated as it took a different shape altogether. Appendages grew from the top and bottom as it took a vaguely humanoid shape... almost similar in shape to Rita herself. While still being a black mass and shaped... wrong. It was still constantly shifting in shapes with each movement. The air blurred around it, and the static that surrounded appeared and disappeared with the heartbeat. It stood at least twelve feet tall, with Rita barely coming to it's "waist". It gazed down at her, before swiping it's hand at her in a wide arc.

"Duck!" Kimberly shouted as she tackled Rita, prepared to do so. They both hit the ground, but fortunately, Rita still has a head on her shoulders. She didn't know what Rita was planning on accomplishing, but she got the idea that the being didn't understand her... or simply didn't want to answer the question.

"Alright asshole, I don't know what the fuck you are!" Claire shouted as she pulled off a door off a locker and held it over her shoulder. "But you're followin' Reese right into hell!" Claire shouted as she threw the door at the Glutton, only for a tendril to appear from the eldritch thing and slice it in half. Only the most perceptive of eyes could have caught it, but when the tendril made contact with the door, a orange light appeared and "ate" it.

The being moved towards the group, it had a walking motion as if it was taking a casual stroll, but it moved much faster than it's movements would even suggest. Suddenly, it stuck it's arm out and it extended right towards the group - but a transparent barrier appeared between it and the group. It stopped the being in it's tracks, but Hagan noticed the glow that was coming from beneath his clothes. However, the being merely fell through the floor... rather abruptly.

"The hell is this thing?!" Justin said as he took steps back. It's out of sight, and most likely going to come back up through the floor. He was desperately looking around for it, so he can at least react. The only idea that came to mind was burning this thing to a crisp with his abstraction... but can it even burn?

"It's an ancient God-like being that- I'll explain later!" Britney shouted as she also looked around, but she noticed an orange light coming from the wall in the shape of a orb. Suddenly, the being burst through the walls as it devoured the matter, and forced the group to dodge as it rammed it's way through. It stood in the middle.

"Fuckin..." Britney hissed underneath her breath, before she was taking deep breaths. Her heart was pounding, "I want everyone to listen, and listen carefully... I know I told ya'll a lot of lies, but you have to listen..." She trailed off as sweat trickled down her cheeks, there were shivers going down her spine and her legs were shaking.

"... We cannot fight this thing, we will die... We have to get out of here fast as we can, if anyone gets caught by it; do not try to save them."

"Screw that!" Justin and Claire said in unison, before Claire ran over to Reese dead body and pulled the blade out of him. Might as well use this.

"If this thing's the cause of all our problems, then let's end this here and now!" Claire triumphantly roared as she raised her weapon in the air. "If ya'll want to leave, then get the fuck out now - I'll buy time!"

"Clair-" Britney tried to say before the being hunched over unnaturally, stretching as if it had no solid body. Tendrils came out of it's body in all directions, wiggling as they grew in length. There was one tendril for everyone there, aiming at them. However, they just stood there on standby.

Which was concerning because nobody knew what would come next.

Vivid Recollections: Into the World Unknown (Season 1 COMPLETE)

Yo, how was Viv different back in the day?

@pokemad1

I can't remember all the details off the top of my head (or they're so bad my mind mentally blocked them out)

- The horror aspects were going to be downplayed in favor of making it more urban-fantasy Life is Strange-ish (even though atm, I can only call this RP loosely inspired by it).

- The whole guardian thing was going to be the focus of the RP, where it would be revealed that it was supposed to be set up as one big game by a God so there'd be one powerful Awakened.

- There was going to be an ancient civilization-type deal, idk. Barely remember.

A lot of these ideas have been incorporated into the RP in a better way.

Vivid Recollections: Into the World Unknown (Season 1 COMPLETE)

@Surtr IncNot really. Out of my characters, only Penny has used hers—and I feel like we could justify it as a secondary part of her Abstraction. Same can probably go for anyone whose character's aura helps with their power.

@Atrophy

Yeah, I was thinkin' the same thing. The only reason why I wanna cut Aura reading is because (for the longest time) I felt like it was tacked on, and redundant to most of the cast. Especially since... it was basically tacked on because I wanted it to stand out in contrast to my other superpower rps, and it was an artifact of when Viv was waaaaaaaaaay different. So different, it might as well be a different RP.

Vivid Recollections: Into the World Unknown (Season 1 COMPLETE)

Holy fuck, I always forget my own damn characters powers. I should keep a fucking scoreboard.

^{if I dropped aura reading, would anyone be mad?}
