Alannah Ó Ceallaigh


Location: X-Factor Briefing Area



This was a nightmare. She'd thought that something was actually, finally about to happen, that she'd get a chance to prove that she wasn't just a curiosity, the slow girl who didn't speak the language, and they were going to have her stand around and get gawked at by a bunch of future people? They all started talking about people she didn't know, Pym or Stark or whoever, because of course. People were always talking about things and people and places she didn't know about. The tips of her fingers starting itching, forming into claws without her bidding. Belladonna stormed out, and Alannah would have been lying if she said she wasn't tempted to join her. She raked her claws against the wall behind her with a wrenching, scraping sound, like they were skirling off of armor.

Alannah bit down on her lip and forced the claws to retract. This would not do. She was not a petulant little girl, she was a warrior, and she owed these people at Serval a debt. If this was the battle they needed her to fight, then she'd make a spirited effort to endure it. And who knows; she hadn't been to any parties in this new world, but in her time you couldn't have a wedding or a victory feast without someone getting drunk and weapons coming out. Maybe this would be like that. She folded her arms and leaned back against the wall. Evelyn, ever the voice of practicality, was asking for information on the guests - Alannah would try to be like that."You say there are powerful indi... ind... people," she said, gritting her teeth at the flaws in her English. "Powerful like us? How many? How many warriors among them? Will there be rival clans? Is a fight likely to start?" She couldn't quite keep the irritation out of her voice.

@Saltwater Thief

I'm not a no. You can PM me with the details, if you want.

And yay! New friends!
@Hero

Accepted!

@Kitty

You're certainly welcome to apply! I'm hereby making the executive decision that applications will close the morning of the 25th. If that's going to be a problem for anyone, you're welcome to shoot me a PM to discuss it, but I don't want the RP to stall out in the opening stages and I'm eager to begin.
@EurmalEye Accepted! Go ahead and move him over.

At this rate, I may need to close admissions to heterosexual male characters in the name of partnerships, though for now I'm just going to monitor that and encourage people who may be on the fence to consider something else.
Thinking about a short range teleporter, Nightcrawler style.

EDIT: Ooh, or maybe Beast-Boy style animorphing. I have a lot of ideas.
Still open?


Yep!
@Th3King0fChaos

Accepted!
Interested.
Intrigued.
Aaaaand my character's up!

@Th3King0fChaos

Awesome job, dude! I really dig this novel-length bio you've written and I'm frankly blown away by the effort. I only have one, little, teeny, tiny, minuscule note which is that he's a touch without flaws at the moment - he seems like he can be consistently relied on to always do the right thing and never make a mistake, which, while fantastic qualities in a person, might make him difficult to interface with in a character-driven story. You don't need to completely rewrite him; maybe just make some mention of how he's sometimes so jovial he becomes insensitive, or how he's been affected in a strongly negative way by his experiences with vampires. Something along those lines. The 'what would he change about himself' question is a good point of interfacing on this one.

Otherwise, super duper good job! I look forward to playing with this guy once those little things are added!
