My sister saw me watching the Co-Optional Podcast and thought I was skyping my friends. How ridiculous! I don't have friends.
This town is really, REALLY going straight to heck.
Riots, anarchy, townswide electrical shortage and now an impending werewolf attack (When is the full moon by the way?).
It's probably listed in forbe's 10 top cities with the shortest life expectancies. :>.
---------------------------------------- Let me change the image, without electricity there should be no Television! I thought it was a whiteboard...
I'll let everyone get the posts they have in the works currently up, and then once that's done the hunt will be afoot.
Me and the crafty pig are doing an extremely long collab post. It will basically detail Andy's attempt to kick start the power in most of the city.
It's almost done, though, so expect it soon.
Awesome sauce. I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say we're all eagerly anticipating it.
I love the idea of the power coming back on and everyone cheering, and then literally seconds later this big wolf howl pierces the air and everyone's just like -_-
Chantrea is a shapely young woman, with a curvaceous and rounded figure. She has broad hips, chunky legs, and a stomach that flows outwards. She has sturdy shoulders, and strong arms. Chantrea has large emerald green eyes, long tresses of hair that have been dyed a combination of platinum blonde and dark red, and slender pink lips.
Skills: Krav Maga, Utilising and categorising poisons, Kendo, Disguise.
Sexual orientation: Heterosexual (Minor Bisexual tendencies)
Personality: At her core, Chantrea is a materialist. Whilst she enjoys manipulating people and exploiting situations, money is the driving factor that motivates her. She is just as capable of being kind as she is cruel, if it will result in her becoming that bit richer.
Chantrea is an opportunist, and will always look for a chance to profit, no matter what the circumstances are. She has been reprimanded in the past for trying to smuggle stolen goods from her mission back into the Sanctum, and is being carefully watched by her mentors at the Bloody Embrace.
Bio: Chantrea was born in to a prominent law-enforcement based family in Liverpool, England, and from a young age she was subject to subtle physiological suggestions that were intended to strengthen her skills of deduction. She had a strict, militaristic upbringing, which she rejected with furious passion; taking every opportunity to rebel against her parents and their traditional ways.
Chantrea was constantly getting into trouble at school, a theme which continued right up to the point where she was expelled from her college for selling drugs to secondary schoolers. Outraged and ashamed, Chantrea’s family shipped her off to military academy, where the young girl continued to fight back against her superiors. Whilst she picked up a basic understanding of self-defence, Chantrea was soon expelled for disobedience.
Whilst waiting at the train station for a lift back home, Chantrea was caught in the middle of a terrorist bombing by a secretly Zhūonosu Consortium backed militia, being critically injured in an explosion.
Chantrea was rushed off to hospital, the doctors just about managing to save her life, where the young girl spent the next few weeks in intensive care. After a few days of sitting about and being extremely bored, Chantrea took to stealthily wandering about the hospital, trying to discern the specifics of what was going on around her. Happening upon a doctor’s private terminal, Chantrea discovered a cryptic message, which she managed to decipher over the next few days; discovering that one of the staff members had been illegally selling medication to poorer neighbourhoods, distilling it so that he could increase his profits, which in turn was having horrendous side effects.
Anonymously blackmailing the doctor, Chantrea made a large profit by threatening to go public with the information she’d uncovered, before selling it on to several major media outlets anyway, and making an even larger profit.
Chantrea moved back in with her parents, who insisted that their daughter spend her time looking for a respectable job. The young woman would tell her parents that she was going out to look for work, when in actuality she was looking for people to manipulate, and shady situations which she could exploit. Chantrea briefly moved back into selling drugs, but made sure to hide her tracks.
Building herself a small fortune off of her underhand tactics, which Chantrea would openly confess to being the most fun she’d ever had, the young woman eventually attracted the attention of the Bloody Embrace, despite her professional-level attempts at remaining hidden.
When the Embrace offered her a place within the Sanctum, Chantrea was quick to accept, and hasn’t looked back since.
Other: Whilst she’s displayed great potential, Chantrea has also gained herself a reputation as untrustworthy, and a con artist, amongst the student body at the Sanctum.
After decades of teetering on the brink of all-out war, society as we know it has given way to a blanket industrial civilisation, where companies and governments have become singular entities, and planet earth is governed by a web-like network of corporations and crime syndicates. Via the use of cybernetic implants, the internet has become as integral to day-to-day life as breathing; now a vast database of information constantly streaming through the minds of every man, woman, and child.
The Zhūonosu Consortium controls the eastern countries of the world, whilst the Alterus Corporation governs the West. Earth is divided up into separate commonwealths, each one controlled by variety of different companies, but ultimately all businesses fall under either Zhūonosu or Alterus dominion.
Whilst the world has technically enjoyed centuries of peace, the two mega powers wage secret wars behind the scenes, battling each other through shadowy espionage groups, or terrorist militia fronts, in an attempt to gain undisputed control over Earth’s economy, and by extension the planet itself.
In an attempt to decimate their bitter rivals, the Alterus Corporation invested several billion fortunes worth of resources into developing the ultimate society of assassins; The Bloody Embrace. With the invention of Kinetic Barriers –utilised through microscopic emitters implanted in the subjects skin, designed to give the user protection from fast moving projectiles such as bullets and lasers- swordplay and knife fighting have become as relevant on the battlefield as marksmanship, and so Alterus enlisted some of the finest assassins in living memory to develop a transferable set of skills to be passed on to their killers in training. The Bloody Embrace quickly grew into a secret order of the most efficient and merciless killers on the planet, and began picking off high-ranking members of The Zhūonosu Consortium at an almost incomprehensible speed.
Growing paranoid, the minds behind the Alterus Corporation became terrified of their own creation, and quickly set about attempting to destroy the Bloody Embrace, and kill every single member of the secret army that they themselves funded.
Going into hiding, the Bloody Embrace retreated underground, become high-ranking killers for hire, where they have remained until the present day. Now, an opportunity at revenge presents itself, as the nefarious Zhūonosu Consortium offer the embrace a perilous contract to assassinate the heads of the Alterus Corporation, and topple their former masters.
A shadow of their previously glorious order, the Bloody Embrace has fallen into decline over its decades in exile, and seeks to recruit new meat for its latest suicide mission. Targeting the unsuspecting youth, The Bloody Embrace moves to hire teenagers who have been spat out and forgotten by society, but who posses the dark and twisted mental state necessary to excel within the ranks of their group, in order to take the fight to the Alterus Corporation, and destroy the group responsible for pulling the strings behind the entirety of western civilisation.
Operating out of their headquarters (The Sanctum), situated on the ocean floor, the Bloody Embrace carefully watch the goings on of the population from the shadows, meticulously scanning through the internet, police records, and the world news for hopes of happening upon young minds capable of being moulded into ruthless killers.
OOC
The Bloody Embrace is a role-play based in a science fiction setting, in which players take on the role of new students at an underground academy dedicated to perfecting the art of assassination.
I’ve specifically left details of the setting ambiguous, as I’d like to see what creations everyone can come up with, and to watch the world progress based off the best of the ideas each of us can come up with.
The game takes place through a mixture of lessons unfolding at The Sanctum, the missions that our assassins are sent on, and player interaction with one another during the downtime between work. The Sanctum itself is a vast academy-style building situated on the ocean floor. Its exact location is unknown to the players, as they are unconscious when brought there.
Characters
Player characters may come from any walk of life, and do not need to be super-fit, peek of humanity style super soldiers. An emphasis is placed on finding alternative means of disposing of one’s adversaries, and convincing three-dimensional characters, so extra brownie points for characters that aren’t emotionless cyborg killing machines.
Students are selected by the Bloody Embrace when they exhibit a certain set of traits that the assassins feel they can utilize, so player’s Character Sheets should include a mention of what events transpired that drew the Embrace’s gaze towards them.
