Evil Ghost Note

Academy 003: Seeds of Change [CLOSED]

I also decided to drop Jaden because I wanted to cut down on the amount of characters I use.

Academy 003: Seeds of Change [CLOSED]

I made a few changes to Ashley and Jack's powers. I added an ability that most likely won't come into play for Ashley (but will serve story purposes) and raised the limit for her power sponsoring so it's slightly less super situational. I also added in Jack's weaknesses that using his weapons on Metahumans makes them more powrful.

@Majoras End@Ciaran@Eric Horst@FernStone@Atrophy

I posted the first IC post, sorry that it's a little skimp, my drive to write has been low lately.

So the plan's simple: have your characters awaken in the mysterious hospital, and wander out.

Vivid Recollections Season 2: Into The False Light [COMPLETE]

<sup>As they rest, they were bombarded with vivid images of their past. Experiences that defined them they observed as a third party as if they were there. It was a strange and chilling experience, that opened wounds that should have remained closed.

Even as the town fell apart around them, they remained safe in their resting place.

Did these dreams have any signifigance? Would it help them stop the Glutton?

Or were they doomed to experience the memories of a dead man.</sup>

It was like that dream after the incident at the camps, the whole experience felt strangely familiar to Kimberly. A foggy area, she was a ghost, and... the last thing she remembered was making a break for the portal and now she's dreaming? She wondered if she was killed, and this is the afterlife. She looked around, and she saw herself in a wooden room with the orange glow of the sun piercing through the cracks and the window. There was a bed and the... the two kids fromthe last dream sleeping on it. According to what Britney said, it was John Reid and his future, the so called guardian on the town - then again, at this point, she knew better than to take what Britney says at face value. At least not anymore.

The boy suddenly jotted himself awake and Amy was awoken too. "Wha- where am I?!" He near-shouted. "What... what happened?" Was it all a dream? It definitely didn't feel like any dream to John.

"John, calm down, I'll explain," Amy put a hand on John's shoulder and attempted to get him to calm down.

"No, I'll explain," A woman's voice came from the door as she walked in. She was wearing a green robe that was covered in various symbols, same as the sword wielder that killed the "aberrant". She had her hood down, and she was revealed to be a woman with a flowing head of black head and features that were seemingly a mixture of European and Arabic.

"Where am I?" John repeated.

"You're in our base of operations." The woman said.

"Who are you?"

The woman smiled warmly, "I am of the Sinclair line, my given name Floris. Your bloodline's name?"

"Ummm... Reid?" John said, a little taken back.

"Your name?"

"John."

"It's great to make acquantinces with you, John, I'm certain you two have a lot of questions." Floris said as she walked over to the edge of the bed, and sat down on it.

"Yeah... what happened?"

"You kids were attacked by an apparition," Floris started off, before she continued upon realizing they probably wouldn't understand, "Which is a manisfestation of human ideas, beliefs, and emotions taken a spectral form."

"... What?" John was confused.

"Okay, that was a lot," Floris chuckled for a moment. "It's a monster, basically. It was eating people... including kids that wander into the woods – what were you kids doing out there?"

John sighed, and it was Amy's turn to do some talking, "We were looking for his dog... and something killed it."

"Oh, my condolences."

"But, I want to know what is going on," Amy said confused, "Was that magic? Are you magic...?"

"It's not magic, love," Floris said. "It's Lux."

"... Lux?" Amy incredulously said.

"Yes, the essence of the universe itself and source of all life is known as Lux. Which the people of my world are capable of harnessing, and certain people in your world are empowered by... like you and your friend here."

"Huh?" Amy raised an eyebrow. "We have... Lux?"

To which Floris nodded, "You're an Awakened. You've opened your everything to the Lux – your mind, your heart, your body, and most importantly of all, your soul – and for that dedication you've gotten powers in return."

"What powers do we have?" John asked.

"That's a question I cannot answer," Floris said, "You'll discover your abstraction in time, but there's one thing I must show you." She pointed at John's chest, the sigil of a shield with wings on it, "This is your sigil, a mark that is the source of your powers - only other Awakened can see it."

"Let me guess, there's more Awakened?" Amy asked.

"Yes, but only in Farmer Hill, and due to your mark, you'll be drawn to them, and they will be drawn to you... along with Apparations like that cannibal. You must learn to protect yourself."

"Won't you protect us, Floris?" John asked.

"I can't... it's not my duty to keep you safe," Floris solemnly said.

"Then what is your duty?" Amy hissed at Floris, only for the older woman to raise an eyebrow. "Actually, you never explained just who are you, you only gave us your name."

"I am with a group known as the Watchers, a group that's main goal is keeping the magical world secret from the greater world. We have been killing Apparitions before they decide to wander into town. Along with... another goal I cannot discuss. It is not our job to protect people and instead it's to protect our intererests."

Kimberly remembered that Britney said she was with the Watchers... but there was obviously a few things that this woman was leaving out. She was still trying to figure out who the League are in this.

"... Some watcher you are."

Floris stood up as she said, "Irelevant... you all have to leave, before your parents get even more worried." She gestured for them to follow her as she walked through the halls off their base.

"Fine," Amy said as she followed.
They ended up in a dark room with the robed figures that was vaguely illuminated by various candles and torches. The one with the book recited a few lines and a massive swirling portal appeared in front of them that was unmistakenly Mason Square.

"If we require your assistance, John," Floris said. "We will find you, but for now we have things to discuss... without outsiders."

John nodded his head as he walked into the portal clutching Amy's hand very tightly. The portal closed behind them and Floris turned to the rest of the group.

"... Think he'd be a great candidate for our plan?"

^{After that dream, the Awakened fell back into darkness... and they didn't experience another recollection.}

"It's time to wake up," All of them heard the heavenly voice of the God-Child, as he prodded them awake. "The Glutton has found you, I can't keep you all safe here."

"You just need to wake up."

Time Unknown. After first encounter...

On cue, Britney awoke.

It was a sudden jolt of energy that had forced Britney awake against her wishes, and she was confused. All she heard was beeping, and saw a bright light... her head drifted around as she noticed that she was in some kind of hospital room. With a quick glance downwards she noticed that she was in a hospital bed... wearing a gown. What the hell? She felt oddly violated while she was under. It took only a moment to remember what lead to this, and she could only feel guilt because of what happened to Claire. She shrugged her shoulders as she crawled up into a fetal position with her arms wrapped around her knees. It felt oddly cold in here, and she glanced towards the window and noticed that it was... snowing? Very hard, too. The girl could only help but wonder how fucking long she's been under.

Okay, she needed to assess the situation here, a lot. As discouraging as Claire's death was, she knew that she was just the beginning if Britney were to give up. She had to figure out a way to stop the Glutton and save everyone. She climbed out of the bed and she felt a jolt of discomfort flow through her body as her bare feet made contact with the cold floor. She swallowed it up asshe walked over to the sink and turned on the cold water and cupped a handful, before splashing it on her face a few times.

A piercing scream from not too far away stopped Britney in her tracks as she raised her head. She remembered what the Child had said; the Glutton has found them.

And she needed to be ready for anything.

Aubrey and Reyna? Those were two names that Kasmira weren't used to. It was always Christine or Sarah or something like that. Though Kashmira was probably a name that neither of them has ever encountered, it was fun being a foreigner here. Though, everyone was definitely on board for her suggestion of sitting down to eat! It was perfect! Making friends here was a lot easier than her experiences in Staten Island - being a fresh off the boat Indian girl probably had something to do with that. The past didn't bother Kashmira much, as all she wanted to do was make friends that'll stick with her until she's out of the Academy. After all, the last she wanted was to be a loner in this place.

When Reyna offered to hold her a seat, Kashmira was excited! "Okay!" She said as she quickly ran and got another tray of assorted vegetables and bread. Before anyone could even consider wondering where she went, Kashmira was back at the table. With a wide smile on her face, and ready to get to know her new friends. She sat down and wondered where the hell she could even start. There was so much to a person... She thought about talking about powers, Kashmira wanted to show everyone her talents during training.

"So..." The girl trailed off, unthinkingly grabbing a handful of corn and sticking it into her mouth. "What brings you all here? To the Academy, I mean. Is it just learning how to use your powers, or something else? I'm curious."

Oh God, I'm breaking rule two.

Seems her sarcastic comment went over the poor girl's head, wasn't relevant. She could agree with what the girl had to say, at the very least. The last thing that Ashley felt here was super because in all honesty, she realized that she was a little fish in a big pond compared to what everyone else here can do. And worst of all she heard about all the vile groups out there and what they would do to someone with a power like hers. The last thing she wanted was to get roped into something even worse.

"I don't know much about Metas either, sister," Ashley said in a dry tone. "There were lots of Metas in my home city, but you know what I had to do with them? Not a thing." She shrugged.

"But, honestly, we just got here, don't you think it's a little too soon to be jumping to these conclusions?" Ashley asked with a raised eyebrow, "You never know, we might be surprised."

I think I fucked up their pronouns somewhere

Vivid Recollections Season 2: Into The False Light [COMPLETE]

Okay, I tried to come up with something else but I think a hope based power is the best.

Hope you like it.

SIGIL & LOCATION ⫻ (Come up with something, I can't think of anything)

ABSTRACTION ⫻ Hope-Infusion, the ability to strengthen the properties of items and people based off hope.

ABSTRACTION DESCRIPTION ⫻ Tied to their optimism, anticipation, and desire for a great outcome, Charlie has the ability to project it as an energy. This energy infuses objects depending on how hopeful they are feeling and boosts their properties such as durablility, and various other properties. If Charlie were to infuse a kitchen knife it'd be twice as durable and sharp enough to cut through way more than you'd expect a simple kitchen knife would. If they infused a wall it'd be more durable and would hold together. If Charlie infused a gun the bullet would have more piercing power and be able to affect the Extra-Normal. The examples go on, and it makes Charlie a very powerful Awakened if they get their hands on the right items. However, Charlie isn't just limited to inanimate objects, they can infuse people and animals. Anyone that Charlie has contact with will feel the energy and will be stronger, faster, and tougher - and the Awakened will receive a small boost to their abilities. In addition, Charlie is capable of infusing themselves and make themself a lot stronger.

IN THE PRESENCE OF THE MOUNTAIN ⫻ The mountain's presence creates a field that Charlie can control. This field is around five meters and she can selectively pick and chose what gets stronger and what doesn't. Which means that Charlie can infuse a lot more items than they would normally be allowed to, and they can infuse a lot more people, too. Their infusions also get a lot stronger.

LIMITS ⫻ Unless in the presence of the mountain, Charlie can only infuse one thing at a time, and it takes a few moments of focus in order to infuse an object (when strengthened by the mountain any objects that enter their field still takes a few moments to be infused). Which slows them down considerably and isn't that helpful in a fast-paced fight. They can only infuse one object at a time and for as long as they have contact with it (or its within their field), after fifteen seconds the effects will fade completely. Any infused objects have lesser effects on Awakened and other Extra-Normal beings.

WEAKNESSES ⫻ The ability is directly linked to Charlie's optimism and anticipation, and if they don't feel particularly hopeful, their abstraction has an opposite effect; objects will get weaker. That kitchen knife I mentioned before? It'd probably shatter on contact with a soft object. That wall? It'll fall apart. This may be a double-edged sword, but this will apply to any objects that Charlie touches, including themselves with no option to turn it. They'll be weaker, slower, and more prone to injury until they get their hopes back up.
