Keep moving forward ۩
⚘ A Brief History
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
I've been at this a long time and when I say a long time I mean a long long damn time. I started out with table top, ADnD, back in the 80's, then dived into others: Nightlife, Mage the Ascension, Shadow Run, HoL, etc. Moved onto Online in the 90's. I've been running various incarnations of a single RP group for twenty years now. Worked helping setting up, building, and/or admining/modding various RP forums over the years: Adventure Quest, Priston Tales, War Gods, etc. It's been a long road filled with ups and downs. I'm an evil GM, you've been warned.

Outside of RP, I am a mom. Yup, I've reproduced and there are little Lady A's running around plotting their own take over of the world. I am a published author and once upon a time an award winning poet. I've done a lot in my life. I haven't done as much as I would like. I've grown a lot. I have a lot more growing to do. I love to cook, baker by trade currently. I went to university and majored in Mathematics. I've programmed websites, worked as a model, worked as a 3d modeler. Shit, I even used to dance. And have been known to sing a bit. Jack of all trades. Master of like 3, lol.


⚘ Looking Inside
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
This is where I go into my personality. In the past I would normally make some self deprecating remark about how I am a bitch of a GM, pushing my rpers as hard as I push myself and so forth. Not anymore. People change, or perhaps they just come into their own. This can happen at any age. More than that it can happen several times over the course of your life as you discover and rediscover yourself. Everything happens for a reason, usually that reason is ones owns actions. Or inaction's. Right now, I am in a better place than I can remember being in the longest time. I am happy and at peace. I have no regrets. Maybe I should but I don't. I plan on keeping this peace I have found, I went far too long without it.

Currently I am enjoying several things. Some are things I have enjoyed most of my life: Coffee, chocolate, bacon, M*A*S*H. One isn't something I have enjoyed since I was seventeen: being clean and free of poisons in my system. It is beyond description and I love it: One-hundred and twenty days and counting. Music taste is shifting to more mood oriented than anything, strange I am finding a lot of newer Country I am enjoying and I have NEVER liked country. Watching things like Lark Rise to Candleford and being hooked to the point of reading the trilogy. Recently added yoga to my workouts and all I can say is, "Fuckmaste: the fucked up in me accepts the fucked up in you."

@Lucius Cypher Basically you need to act like your last post never occurred and pick up from the end of your first post. This time you will need to take into account everything that happened after your first post all the way until you post again. You could still chose to attack the same one as your second post but know if you do that an entire round and a half at least will have passed until your character gets to Sona if you decide to try to aide her. Basically now with the post being nulled your character would have just stood there the entire last round doing nothing. Same amount of time will have passed just No actions taken.
@POOHEAD189 No worries, why we review before hand. That way it doesn't become an issue later. If you have questions or doubts, always ask.

Okay the rest of you - call your spot again. This time, please do not call a place in rotation until after the first person calls and posts. That way we are not waiting around and the person that is open to post at the time can call next in line right when they are starting to create a post.


Kyra Altham

Location: Gorlf Northern Territory
Interacting With: 11, Ash with remaining Jackel

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~


Nearly seven foot tall Orc vs a little taller than five foot tall human. Yeah, the odds did not look for this fight and Kyra wasn't naive enough to think anything else. Strength was not going to win out in this fight, neither was stamina. She would have to be quick about it and with the way the fight was going; the quicker the better. If she had had a moment to be grateful that Ash was with her tending to the Jackal she would have been but again, speed was essential. "Bide your time though," she thought to herself. Even when speed was of the essence, jumping feet first into things usually wasn't the best way to go.

11 glared towards her as she brought her sword before her, gripping it loosely with both hands. She stood there, unwavering, with her feet just shoulder width apart. She wasn't watching the orcs eyes, she was watching his form. Concentration had kicked in and the world around her seemed to fade away. Only what needed to be focused on was at that moment. "Just a little longer," she told herself. 11's hip finally shifted; he began to move. Left foot, right foot; swinging the axe in his right hand out as he moved to charge her, the one in his left pulling back slightly. Kyra still didn't move as he came closer. The tip of her blade even with her chin as she continued to grasp it in both hands. "Wait for it." The axe from his right came swinging in horizontally when the orc felt he was close enough to strike. For him it was his midsection, for Kyra the blade of his axe would connect with her throat. His left hand rising in the air, bent on coming down on her right side to keep her from behind able to move out of the way.

For Kyra stepping back was not an option. Ash and Jackal were jaws locked behind her in their own battle at this point. Stepping to the left meant sure beheading. Stepping to the right meant a skull crushing blow to the skull. Up was not an option right then. The Orc was much taller than she and she had no room to take enough short steps to go over the man. Forward. Forward was the only way to go. And now. Just as the right axe came swinging through Kyra dropped to her right knee, her left leg sprawling out in front of her and sliding through the mud. The slick surface aiding in her drop right between 11's legs. Her sword, just being gripped in her left hand came down and through the orcs inner right thigh; severing through the adductors in one clean downwards slice. Her right hand gabbed his left ankle; haulting her momentum. A quick turn of the hilt in her hand and a drive straight up through the groin and into the body cavity was all she needed, the tip of her sword's blade shimmering red as it peeked out through his ribs on the front of his chest. Spinning on her rear as she pulled her legs in together she slide back on her heels and stood up behind 11, ripping her sword out from what appeared to be his rectum from the vantage point of others.

11 toppled to the ground, lifeless . His face crushing into the mud and earth below for a brief moment before it was covered by the lifeless body of a jackal as Ash tossed the remains of his own foe atop of his master. Kyra shook her head slightly, clearing out the concentration so she could focus on her surroundings and took note of what else was happening around her right then. There were still a few standing or attempting to and it seemed several of those that had joined the group for the night were injured. Injuries would have to wait. The few remaining were on the other side of the camp from her; that's where she needed to get to first. Shaking the remains off her sword she slipped around the back side of the camp fire; moving counter clockwise to the back of the wagon, sheathing her sword as she went.

*Special note - When attacking you need to denote where you are attacking. If you say shoulder - well which one? Left or Right? Front or Back? Which had are you using to attack with? Left or right? Are you on their left or right side? Did you drop to your left or right knee? Are you swiping from left to right or right to left, up or down? Further we get along the closer I will be paying attention to these things. Do not leave an opening for me to go - well you damaged one arm and then attacked with a sword but you didn't state which arm was damaged and which you attacked with; so I am dropping the GM card and saying you attacked with your damaged arm, not realizing fully how damaged it was because of the rush of a battle and you just screwed yourself and hit that fucker with the force of a feather falling to the ground after a pillow fight. Do not leave me openings to exploit.

@Lucius CypherYour previous post is considered null and void in its entirety. Reason for this is because you did not, for the second time use the time denotions either in your header or in your post for your attack as was instructed of in the beginning of the fight and reminded of in the last update. The first round of incorrect posting was given a freebie, second time = post never happened. (And no you may not reuse anything when your turn comes up again, you must pick up from your post before the cancel one and start from there.)

@Dragoknighte@Salrynn @Sigil @Rivaan - So this means that if you are going to reply to Malkus you have to do it from the post before the update before this one since the last post is null and void.
@POOHEAD189 Quick mention here - The reason that Kyra can swim without hindrance is a combination of Strength, having the swim skill and having Armor Proficiency Light - Your character has no armor proficiency so this would removed the ability to swim without hindrance in Light Armor. (in fact with no armor proficiency, he wouldn't be able to wear armor period without severe problems. So would either need to add in a proficiency or remove the chainmail. And a CMB can be looked at as either a light or medium - If you are counting it as say an AC 5 it is surely a Medium. SO even if he had Armor Proficiency Light wouldn't be useful. ) - Now, taking all that into account - even adding in an Armor proficiency proper for a CMB he still wouldn't be able to swim in it with the Swim Skill, Armor Proficiency Skill, with a STR of 15 - the combined skills would not allow for a CMB, Pack and Shield. The three combined are only good for pack, light armor and light weapons. Nothing hugely bulkly like a CMB and Shield on top of weapons and pack.
@Nallore Yeah, so did I. When I read it the first time it didn't even register but when I reread it to double check things while making my post something kind of stuck in the back of my mind to goggle it and look it up, lol.






Mother Fucker, you all really must have pissed LLA off. What? Did you not give her your first born sacrifice? Maybe you left a steaming bag of burning shit on her front porch? Piss in her Cheerios? Seriously, what ever you did you really really ticked this woman off. I would suggest you STOP! Sweet Mary and Joseph. I swear whatever it was really got her attention and she decided to get together with George RR Martin and Joss Whedon have some really angry sex and bore this unholyness on you. All I have to say at this point is... AT LEAST IT WASN'T ME THIS TIME!!!!!!

Oh yeah, that means it was one of you. Um, yeah, grab the tissues.... ~coughs~ So, about that death? Shall we get on with it? Let's.

Now within the Courthouse - things are pretty calm. Kristina took care of the guy that got away and everything seems quiet within right now. Tom has given a wave to those in the tower and bee lined it for the back door of the armory and made his way inside where he is quickly gathering arms and setting them up. The place inside seems clear enough for now. Outside there is a very angry southern belle narrowing her eyes at the tower. Oh better hope she calms down before she gets back in there or that ass beating that Dick got look like a church social.

Well anywho, so that leaves the rest of your fuckers out in the streets. Eenie meenie miney moe, catch a Breather by the toe, if they holler, let them go - oh fuck it. Let's try this again... eenie meenie miney moe, catch a Marine by the toe, doesn't matter if she hollers, (and she will, most likely GFDI), that walker ain't letting go... Oh I suck at rhyming right now. Swarm of Walkers, you get the picture. Wait, not really. Since it wasn't a walker. Shot to the heart and Edens to blame. Well not exactly right square in the heart, well kind of. In the heart but not enough to cause sudden death. You have about three or four seconds. Where did it come from? Same location where the bullet that took the truck tire came out of. To your west, down a little south west. Perhaps down by the mechanics and fabrication shop. Thing is the armory is to the North East. Do you pursue or arm up first?




Zoie Crawford


Location: Streets of Newnan
Interacting With: @Sigil, @Charnobylisk, @Nallore, @Aewin



Zoie was hell bent on removing this plague from the blight of humanity in the worst way possible but her angered glee was cut short by some pot shot from the heavens above. Well not exactly the heavens but the tower. Watching Angel drop the ground lifeless she spun around, the woman was about to fly off the handle. There was no reason what so ever for whoever took out Angel to have done so. She was alone, Zoie was heading for her and the rest of the group had Walkers all around them. It was a stupid move to go after a single one that was clearly being taken care of than to keep their attention on the rest of the group that could really use a hand. That was just a pot shot in her book and whoever drove that arrow into Angel was going to pay with an ass beating when things calmed down. You know, cause ass beatings wait till things are calm instead of in the middle of a life or death scenario.

"This crew really got a bag of rocks for brains," she muttered under her breath to herself as she knelt down and pulled the arrow out of Angel, taking a good look at it since she would need to figure out whose ass to grill when this was over. Since she was too far from the rest of the group now no one would have heard her muttering. Throwing the arrow to the ground she spun around. It was about that time that Zoie heard the bullet fire and saw where it impacted. "And that is what happens when people in the tower aren't doing their fucking job," she said as she watched another breather drop. Maybe if they had kept their eyes to the west where the bullet came from that was a death that could have been avoided but no, no one ever bothered to look. "Some fucking look out," she thought to herself.

"I got this, you get to the fucking armory!" Zoie spat as she drove her blades through two Walkers on either side of her and darted off down Gilbert street away from the rest of the group. She had a feeling she knew who was taking the shots. There were only a handful in Eden with that type of aim and she knew at least one of them was headed back to that hell they called home. If it was who she thought it was she wasn't going to kill him, she was going to introduce him to the ninth level of hell while she pulled out some information, and then kill him. Maybe, maybe not. Would depend. She knew the man needed to die, everyone in Eden pretty much did but some needed a special death and if whose face was flashing in her mind was the culprit behind this last death she knew he needed that he needed a little gift wrapping.

She wasn't even bothering to drop the Walkers now as she walked down the streets, she simply side stepped them or gave them a quick kick to the gut or knee cap. She didn't have time for their shit she had more important matters to deal with. Turning the corner she peeked her head around, whoever had been there was gone but the door to the fabrication place was starting to close. Time to get to work. Slipping inside the door before it closed heavy behind her Zoie began her search of the building.
@Nallore Got a bit of a continuity error. Refer to Katniss in your post. Since this Rp is taking place in 2010, three years after the out break, means there would have never been a Hunger Games. Book wasn't released until 2008. (Which would mean it couldn't have been released since the outbreak occupied a year before hand.)
K, will be posting the next round tomorrow.
Party went well but spent, posting WN tomorrow morning.
I will update all the lists in the morning and start to work on an ic within the next day or two to set things up.
