Bio

✾ 𝙻𝚊𝚍𝚢 𝙰𝚋𝚜𝚒𝚗𝚝𝚑𝚒𝚊
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."

@DizzyIsabella Wonderful post but there is an edit that needs to be made. You used the wrong color code. a187be is Danica Graves. Need to switch out the codes before you can post for the character again.


Marc Tinder


Location: Grimm HS: Gym --> Outside
Interacting With: His Phone
Interaction Tags:@Charnobylisk @Nallore



"Yeah, please do. I want to know what the hell happened," Marc said as he covered up his phone while he spoke to Ashley before returning to the call. He stood there for a minute before looking over at Lawson and then back over at the door as the group stepped out so that Ada could get a bit of air. Running his free hand through his hair he told Tim to hold on for a second. Whatever the man was saying he didn't want others to hear it. Stepping out quickly he nodded towards Ashley, Ada, Kai, and Riley as he stepped passed them and walked over to his car. Leaning against it he got a bit of a irked look on his features.

"Tim, take a breath, okay good, continue."

Taking a breath he covered his mouth, giving the occasional yup, okay and hrm into the phone. He looked back over to the group and then turned his back to them as he propped his elbows up on the back of his car. Whatever was going on seemed serious from the way he was acting.

"I don't see how that would help. The more they stay divided up the more of a target people are. We need to keep them in groups as much as possible. I need to see how they act around each other. No, no need. I have already informed them about Jessica. I wanted to confront the issue before it hit the feeds on their phones. You know how this town is. Soon as something happens it will reach the outskirts of the county before we even get to examine anything. Right, yes, keep me posted. I will be in later on after I am sure others are in for the evening. Okay,talk to you soon," he said before hanging up.

He nearly chucked his phone across the concrete but stopped himself. Shoving his phone back into his pocket he straightened out his vest and took a long breath before turning around and looking back over to them. "When you all are done out here, please come back into the gym. We need to speak," he said calmly before walking back into the gym and leaving Ashley to figure out what was going on with Ada and Kai. He was curious but he couldn't stand there and drill them himself. Though he did have plans to pull Kai aside later and have a little talk with him.



Dj Lawson


Location: Grimm HS: Gym
Interacting With:"Jess"
Interaction Tags:@Charnobylisk



Lawson looked up from the floor and growled under his breath as Kai picked up Ada in his arms and carried her outside. He was more than obvious on his face that he did not like the idea. The only reason he held still was because Ashley said she was going. He figured at least with Ash there along with them it wouldn't get too touchy feel. At least he hoped it wouldn't. Grumbling he sat back down and looked over towards this Jess person.

"He should be no where near her, ever! He doesn't deserve to be within a hundred feet of her. Even if she wasn't my wife I wouldn't want him near her," he said before letting out a huff and shaking his head.

"Sorry again ma'am," he said as he looked over towards Jess. He didn't mean to be blowing up at the woman but he found he couldn't help himself when it came to his Bella. Taking a few long breaths, he tried to force himself to calm down.

"So, is it Miss or Missus? You'll have to forgive me but I just don't remember you. Blame it on this jarhead but honestly, I doubt I would have forgotten someone as beautiful as you. Are you and Ada close? I don't remember you at the wedding," Lawson said, trying to change the subject but it was clear that he was just trying to be polite at that point. His eyes kept wandering to the door, waiting for his wife to come back through them.



Adelaide Grimaldi "Lawson"


Location: Grimm HS: Gym - Outside the Gym
Interacting With: Riley, Ash and Kai
Interaction Tags:@Charnobylisk @Nallore



Ada's arms wrapped around Kai's shoulders as he picked her up, curling her body close to his. She was still in shock over the entire ordeal but being there with him helped; being so close to him helped more than she would ever admit to Lawson. She felt bad for him and she knew she needed to speak to him but she just couldn't yet. Not after the way she reacted. She had so many questions but it seemed that everyone else had questions as well. Looking over towards Lawson as she was carried out of the gym she groaned inwardly. This was turning into a complete clusterfuck.

As Kai carried her outside she pointed over to the picnic tables and waited for him to set her down. Once he had she sat there, keeping her foot up a bit but pulling him over to sit down next to her and leaning against him; still clinging to him. Looking over towards Ash and Riley she bit her bottom lip slightly. She had a lot to answer for. Taking a deep breath, she figured she might as well get it over with. Maybe getting it off her chest would make it easier to speak to her "husband." Husband... God, how was she going to face him. After what had just happened with her and Kai? She was finally back with the man she had loved all these years. She thought her husband was dead. What the fuck was she going to do.

Straightening up some she swallowed hard. "I... I know... I wasn't expecting it either. We saw each other and well, we got into a fight. Kind of. It wasn't really a fight but before I knew it he had slung me over his shoulders and carted me off to the parking lot. Well, um after that we ended up at my parents. Don't ask. It just kind of happened," she said nervously as she looked down ant picked as some fluff on her pants. Shaking her head she looked over towards Ash and gave her this look that could only be described as well you can guess what happened then, Ada blushing as she remembered the way that Kai had kissed her; how he tasted, how she felt in his arms, the tears, everything.

"Listen, Kai and I both screwed up years ago and you know as well as anyone I never stopped loving him," Ada said to Ash. She knew Ash knew how she felt about Kai, she had said it more than once and after her break down at her own wedding, everything came out. "Well um, seems he never did either," Ada said as she laced her fingers with his and gazed up to Kai the way she used to. Reaching up she caressed his cheek softly. Those eyes of his pierced her as they always had, sending a shiver running down her spine.

"Kai, I swear, I didn't know he was alive. There was a funeral, I have his death certificate. It was five years ago. This is the first time I have laid eyes on the man since before he left for the middle east the last time, that was so long ago. I'm sorry.... I promise, I never loved him, I told you that. I just don't want to lose you now. God, what am I going do to?" she asked as a few tears slipped from her eyes and rolled down her cheeks. She looked over towards Ashley and Riley. "What the hell am I supposed to do?"
@Kingfisher Next time, if you have concerns, please either PM the person or the GM's - do not address it in the OOC - that only causes more problems. (As already demonstrated)
@Kingfisher Char has been given the okay to run over things from both myself and X, so no; she is not. Hell I was confused by it.
@Charnobylisk @Salrynn @Aewin @SouffleGirl123 @Dragoknighte @Fabricant451 @Arista

Okay, update made - Let's get our party on!





Wadsworth waited for each of the of the arrivals to get situated and the bellhops to gather all the baggage. Once that was done the bellhops began to make their way down the beach and towards the hotel; making sure that each set of luggage was set into the appropriate room for the name on the bags.

"Now, if you all would follow me," Wadsworth say with a beaming broad smile on his face as he motioned for his newest guest to come with him. "Our beach is completely private for miles in either direction. The waters are crystal clear and provide for such an amazing view if you wish to go snorkeling. The jungle and mountains behind us provide wonderful hiking and climbing adventures. We have saunas, private dining areas, pools inside and out, spectacular verandas and our staff will be on call every moment of the day and night to serve all your needs. Now, please proceed to your rooms and freshen up. We will begin in two hours with the first round of your activities. We will start out with a Speed date in the main gathering room off to the right hereon the main floor. In your folders is the name of the person you will be paired with first. We do ask that you all refrain from speaking with each other from now until then. You signed up for a process, it seems such a waste to just ignore it. Once you are ready, just proceed to the location and take a place at your assigned table for the first round."

With that Wadsworth went on his way to attend to the finishing touches of this evenings events.

Room Assignments And Speed Date Round 1 Reminder







Clementine Morgan


Location: Beach, her room, main room
Interacting With: Wadsworth and the rest in general.




Clementine stood up and dusted the sand off her back side as the others began to make their ways over to her and Christian. Some had much more interesting ways of entering the scene than she had. She just titled her head to the side as she watched the antics before her. This was the group she was going to be with for the next week? Things were going to get interesting very quickly. Stepping over to each as they arrived she introduced herself in a kind manner to each. She kept her tongue in check for now; last thing she needed to do was to offend someone right off the bat. Would make the entire thing rather pointless.

"Pleasure to meet you, I'm Clementine but you are welcome to call me Clem for short," she said to each as she held her hand out to shake their respective hands. She didn't say the same thing to each of them, but more or less some variation of it. A smile plastered on her lips that caused her cheeks to start hurting. Wiping the smile from her face she gave in. "Yeah, now I know why my mother used to say - if you hold your face like that too long it will get stuck like that," she said as she pushed her hair out her face as the winds picked up around them.

As Wadsworth ushered them towards the hotel she followed, tucking her hair behind her ear and listening intently to what he had to say. When he asked for them not to speak to each other again before the events began she perked a brow. That was an interesting way of handling things but who was she to say anything? Well, she was exactly the person to say something. "Then why the hell did he hoard all of us together to walk to the hotel at once and let us know who our first date was? Freaking butlers," she muttered before looking down at her papers and noted her room. Checking the map she waved absentmindedly towards the others and left without another word as she made her way to her room.

Keycard and knob turn later she was inside and gawking at the surroundings. This was much better in person than in the pictures. She flopped down on her bed and let out a happy sigh as she stretched out. Rolling over she giggled, this was going to be a nice place to get to rest at night if things didn't work out. Rolling back over she hopped up and opted to take a quick shower before the night began. She wanted to get the salt water off her skin, it made it feel way to tight and dry for her liking.

Stepping out of the shower she wrapped a towel around her and began to unload her bags. Picking out a nice little blue number for the evening. Not too fancy, not too casual, and light enough for the warmer weather. A quick application of makeup and she checked the time. That time went by quickly but granted she had unloaded a lot of clothing.

Making her way down to the main room she looked around, she was a few minutes early but she always preferred it like that. She liked to watch people and being there first was usually the best way to start. Checking the papers once again she found the name of the person she was paired with to start the evening; a Mr. Dylan Clark. She shrugged her shoulders a bit and found their table. Setting her purse on the table she sat down and crossed her legs as she leaned back; her hair falling over her shoulders and spilling down the back of the chair as she waited.





Christian Emory


Location: Beach, his room, main room
Interacting With: Wadsworth and the rest




"Well aren't we just a bunch of people wanting to take a swim?" Christian joked as the others approached. "Hallo Lads and Lasses, I'm Christian," he said waiving a bit before he grabbed his bag and headed off after Wadsworth and the rest. He wore such a bright smile as he walked down the beach, enjoying the sun and wind in his hair. He seemed like a little kid in a candy store right then. He walked along the edge of the water and kicked at it, splashing a bit as he did.

"This place is perfect!" he exclaimed in this thick Irish accent as Wadsworth walked off. Turning he gave a bit of a dramatic and a wink before running like a kid to open presents on Christmas morning to his room, nearly bursting through the door once he got the keycard to work. "Oh this place is so much better than that slum I stayed in over in India," he laughed as he closed the door behind him.

Dropping his pack on the ground he wandered through the room looking at everything, touching everything, checking out everything. Mayhaps Ma was onto something," he laughed to himself as he stepped out onto the balcony and took in the sight before him. He couldn't stop smiling, which wasn't uncommon, but this one was brighter than normal. Maybe he would find a sweetie. There were several stunning people in the crowd and a few with something interesting going on behind their eyes. He couldn't wait to get to know everyone.

A jump in the shower after wasting a lot of time just looking around the room, and a quick jump out he rummaged through his luggage to find something to wear. Finding what he wanted to wear he got dressed quickly. Stopping by the mirror he fluffed his hair a bit. He had stopped fighting the untamed curls years ago. Smiling he grabbed his papers and the keycard before dashing over to the main room.

Looking around he saw Clementine sitting there and he smiled, he had to bite his tongue from saying anything to her. Looking at his paper he checked out who he was starting with tonight; Ms. Kirsta Hale. Wasn't that the girl who fell off the boat? He chuckled a bit as he found his table and had a seat. Now to just wait on the rest to begin.





Everyone, may I have your attention please.. Bow your heads with me as we mourn the loss of so many. It all began with a little Taco Belle and it has only snowballed from there. Our death count has continued to climb but we knew that was going to happen. So many of us are in mourning for that character that meant so much to us. The thing with mourning is that much of the time we are not given enough time to mourn. At least not in this world. Why? Because before we know it we will lose another and sometimes in that mourning we can't think straight. We do things we normally wouldn't do. You know, fly off the handle, rush into a swarm of Walkers, kiss a dead woman in the streets that is providing the newest selection of MRE for a couple of Walkers dining a la picnic.

So, say yours prayers little ones - As she rushed over to the fallen friend Lorna and took her jacket that she was wearing off it all went to hell. The Walkers much preferred a warm flesh to cold flesh. And before she knew it, one of those Walkers had the taste of Archer in their mouth. Maria's right arm has been bit between the elbow and the shoulder.

Now there is a lesson in this children - Don't go kissing and draping clothing over corpses laying out in the middle of the road!



Zoie Crawford


Location: On Top Of The Armory - In The Streets
Interacting With: @Nallore



Zoie reloaded the rifle and went to take aim again, looking through the scope and then pulled back and sat up from her laying position on top of the armory as she saw someone run out of the Courthouse. Her brows lowered, wondering why anyone was leaving the place. She understood people going in but to leave? It seemed odd. Standing up her eyes followed the woman, one of the ones that had laid into Honkey Tonk earlier in the day. She wasn't running for the main crowd of Eaters, she was moving down the street. Towards what? To what end? Then she saw it, where the woman was rushing to.

"Get away from there! Are ya freakin' nuts!" she screamed as she watched Maria rush over to the fallen Marine and get the womans jacket off. Before Zoie knew it the woman was becoming a desert for one of the Walkers that was feasting on Lorna's corpse. Shaking her head she looked around. A few steps back and a flying leap later she had jumped from the roof of the armory and grabbed a hold of a light post, sliding down the thing like she was a fireman. One foot in front of the other she went into a full sprint, taking aim as she went and blowing out the brains of the walker as it leaned back to take another bite. Two more shots and the others around Maria dropped to the ground.

Shouldering the rifle she unbuckled her belt and whipped it out from around her as she slid to a stop next to Maria. "You be holdin' on girl, Zoie be got yer back; hold still," she said quickly as she wrapped the belt down at Maria's arm just below the shoulder and pulled down tight as she could. Wrapping the girls good arm over her shoulder she un-holstered her Beretta and kept it at the ready. "We get ya to Froggy and you'll be fine. Sleeveless is in this season," she quipped trying to lighten the mood. Looking up at the tower she screamed. "Mr. James! Keep that path clear!"

She had done what she could, now she had to get Maria back to Victor if the poor girl hoped to live another day. She was tired of death, had been for a while. Too many were dropping right now and she would be damned if they lost another one today. Amputation beat turning any damn day as far as she was concerned.
@Nallore I never ask for one but I always seem to get one!
@Nallore Cause I copied it from the list I used last time, before you put your CS up LOL But hey, you got the message anyways. :P
@Scallop @POOHEAD189 @Sigil @Morose @Dragoknighte @DizzyIsabella @Charnobylisk @Kingfisher @Xtreme

Alright folks, the original OOC post has gone through a major update - an image of the brownstone plus some details has been placed in it. As well as adding in your relation sheet. These are not mandatory but seriously, this is a crime drama - you are meant to try to solve the case, use this code to help with that. Edit your CS in the CS Tab and add it under there as a quick reference area for you to place notes as we go along. If you think you have solved the case you will have to submit one of these with your clues to back it up.
