The Hidden People

Well, here's a link to the latest recruiting push.

The Hidden People! Now Recruiting (Again)! Modern/Fantasy in the 1980's, sense of humor required.

1985.
An ancient sorcerer.
A city held in terror.
Authority figures all dead.
And even if those problems get solved, there's huge hole in the ozone from all the hairspray that the rock bands are using.

Come see the RP and perhaps join the hilarity?

Reasons to join

---

- Ambiguously-gendered ex-angel that really looks fabulous in outfits made for either.
- Spangle-obsessed, Ferrari-driving, compulsively-lying unicorn.
- Boogeyman with hidden legal talents.
- Lazy, did-too-much-drugs-in-the-70's Werewolf King Biker.
- And your misfit supernatural.

Rated R for 'Rad'

The Hidden People

Sorry guys, the RP's gone a bit awry and I'm not sure how Abigail and Victor would deal with this situation. It was fun, but we're going to leave so you guys can open it up and find some more active players. Thanks though!

@Stitches

No problem, but we're happy to work it out. Nonetheless, good luck in wherever you go next!

What is the hardest thing you've ever done?

@HeySeuss

There is no such thing as a perfect person. We are all flawed and I know you know this :P

@Wick

I was being very sarcastic, but it doesn't always convey properly over text.

Shadowed Apotheosis [Sword and Sandals Fantasy-Magical Apocalypse]

The OOC is over here.

Blackshields: The Horus Heresy [Warhammer 30K]

Honestly, wouldn't a bolt pistol make a lot more sense considering that his job is not to operate weaponry, but to save Marines? A combi-bolter seems like a very heavy weapon more suited to a tactical Marine or other front line combatant.

Blackshields: The Horus Heresy [Warhammer 30K]

Storm bolters weren't in use. It'd be a combi-bolter.

Seuss! (Tentatively)

Could it really be you? I'm pretty sure were working on putting together a city building RP when GuildFall happened (RIP). I was so sad when we were cut short and so I'm definitely interested in seeing how this goes.

@Callthecops

I used the material from the Guardians of Dara for this RP. Some of the plot themes are very similar. This is sort of a merger of several different things that I had done notes on and otherwise developed. So yes, definitely an evolution of previous work and plots.

What is the hardest thing you've ever done?

Pretending I'm okay when I'm really not...but I have to be because I have to keep it together to be there to keep my dad together and if I'm not his emotional crutch I am terrified of what might happen to him

Also having to come to terms with the fact that if I want to save my own mental health I may have to move out and leave him behind with my narcissistic, emotionally abusive and controlling mother. That kills me, every day, and I don't know if I can do it....but if I don't I honestly believe I will spend the rest of my life being an emotional and financial crutch to my parents.

I'm 21. And I don't mean to be edgy or ungrateful or any of that, but I should not have to deal with or worry about the amount of shit that I do, at this stage of my life. I should be worried about getting my own place, getting a steady paid job, meeting someone that I might one day spend the rest of my life with (and that's a whole other kettle of fish but I won't go into that today). Not whether or not we're going to have any food at all for the next week, or whether it's safe for me to go to bed at night without worrying about them fighting again and her threatening him with some other nonsense. I didn't even go to university and aside from money being an issue I wasn't comfortable leaving him to deal with her all on his own for months at a time while I'm away studying. Now I'll probably never go because even if I do end up managing to move out I won't be able to afford it now.

I don't really wanna go into super details but yeah, it messes with my head every damn day and it feels kinda good to spit it out for once instead of pretend it'll just go away I guess :B

@The Elvenqueen

The more you spit it out, the more you will find that people are in similar boats and can relate to the problems you're talking about. It beats the alternative of that isolated feeling that tends to become a feedback loop.

That's important, because isolation doesn't help and it's useful to hear reassurance on things like, "Oh yeah, your mom is nuts" and "you are doing the right thing for your father." Someone might have a good answer or suggestion.

But the other thing is this: You do have a right to take care of yourself and if that means moving out and getting your own place and a job and so forth is better for you, it puts you in the position to better assist your father. I know I am basically talking about a paradox here, but life can be ambiguous and we all muddle through and do our best. It's not edgy or ungrateful, but it is a frustrating situation where you are damned if you do and damned if you don't.

But hey, maybe a perfect person will come on and let us all know how to resolve this stuff. Until then, you can only do your best.

Shadowed Apotheosis [Sword and Sandals Fantasy-Magical Apocalypse]

Got it.

I did some brainstorming on the essential nature of Vukash magic and why it exists when the other forms don't. I'm trying to make sure we have a viable system as well as a good plot device.
