If things get real bad and you have to resort to cannibalism remember: Vegans first, they are the closest thing to grass fed.

✾ 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."

@Caits Holy shit girl... Don't blame you, I wouldn't. Will give you some extra time if you need it, no worries. @Nallore, if it comes down to it, just bunny Neisha with your character in minor fashions - as long as that is okay with Caits. (Miss Sally will be moving back to the Mess Hall in my WN coming up today, so she will be able to take care of getting everyone something to eat and you'll get some information about the little girl and such as well.)


Marc Tinder


Location: Parents House



March chuckled as he stepped into the bathroom and turned on the water. Letting it heat up while as he pealed out of his clothing and took a look at himself in the mirror. His fingers running across the small scars that dotted his chest, turning to see more covering his back. Sighing he stepped into the shower and cleaned up, shaving as well and making sure to brush his teeth before he was exiting the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist. His clothing gathered in one hand and his phone in the other he peeked back into the room and smiled over to Ashley.

"If you want to grab a shower, it's all clear now. Don't know how much hot water I left you though," he said with a light grin on his lips as a few beads of water still rolled down his chest. Turning he was about to go and get dressed in his room when his phone went off. Looking down he perked a brow when he saw it was Kai calling, his heart dropped into the pit of his stomach; for several reasons. He hoped Kai wasn't calling to say that Ada was missing but it wasn't only that. Looking over to Ashley he wondered how anyone would react to the fact she had stayed with him over night. No, he wouldn't tell Kai that. It wasn't his place. Ashley deserved her privacy and nothing had happened. Sure she wound up in bed with him but that was for comfort he figured.

"Tinder here," he said into the phone as he answered it. Giving Ashley a faint smile before turning and walking down the hallway back to his room. He waited for Kai to speak before he said anything, looking through his clothing as he spoke. "Are you and Ada okay? Nothing happened during the night did it with you two? Everything is fine here. Made sure everyone was paired up before they left the gym last night. I am heading over to the station to speak with Tim shortly. I'll be at the picnic later on."




Dj Lawson


Location: Jasmin's Hotel Room



Grabbing some clothing he stepped around the corner but left the bathroom door open so he could be heard as he got dressed; well partially dressed. Once he had his underwear on and his black jeans he stepped back out, resting the towel on the knob of the door to the bath room. "Some coffee and a pastry would probably be good, nothing big. Then we can head over. Well that is if you want me to go with you," he said as he finally realized that maybe it wasn't the best idea for him to go with her to the reunion thing. Ada and Kai would be there no doubt. Did he really want to see them together?

Sighing he stepped over to the TV and turned it on, wanting to get the weather report for the day. When he saw the replay of the news conference with Tim, he shook his head and turned the TV back off quickly. "Well that settles it, looks like you have yourself a bodyguard for today ma'am," he said in a rather business like fashion. He was a Marine after all and there was a killer on the loose. He wasn't about to let a sweet little gem like Jasmine go out alone.

Pulling on a grey t-shirt he slipped on a sport coat over it. He figured it would work. It was casual enough but still slightly dressed up. Sitting down on the end of the fold out couch he started pulling on his boots. "So, is Britney's Cafe still the best place in town for coffee?" he asked as he stood up and pushed his hair back, smiling over at her.



Adelaide Grimaldi


Location: Kai's Hotel Room



Adelaide leaned against Kai as he grabbed his phone, her arms wrapped around him as she rested her head on his shoulder. There was a killer on the loose and people she had known her whole life were dropping like flies but oddly she didn't feel scared. Being with Kai had always set her at ease in a way nothing else could. It was like nothing could get close to her as long as he was there. She had been scared of many things in her life when she was younger. Speaking in public, her swim meets, and especially giving her speech at graduation. Yet, each time Kai was there, watching over her and staying close. He made it to where she could keep going, as if nothing could ever harm her as long as she was in his sights.

"We'll just blame it on lack of sleep," she teased as she held herself closer to him while he made the call. He heard Marc pick up on the other end and was glad to hear his voice, to know he was safe. She worried about Ashley and Jasmine and the others but her phone was broken and she hadn't gotten over to the store to pick up a new one yet. Sighing she just stayed against him for now, figuring they could pick her up a new one before heading over to the picnic. It would be fine. She was with Kai.



Cynthia McMillan


Location: The hotel



Cynthia's eyes shot over to Tuesday and she bit her bottom lip hard. It was obvious at this point she was frightened, which was odd even in her twisted state. She had shown she was crazy on several levels over the last day, and would lash out; she had also shown her ability to actually be kind. She had not shown fear as of yet and now it was washing over her like waves on the coast. Her eyes darted around as they remained peeled open, nodding quickly as her fingers clutched together and wrung at each other.

"She knows. Yes, I know. Of course you know. Come on tell her. Why? She needs to know. No, put her in danger. It's okay. No it isn't. We are safe. No one is safe. Then we need to make them safe. Why? If they aren't safe we aren't safe," Cynthia sat there debating with herself over what she should say and what she shouldn't or if she should say anything more than she already had. Had she already said too much, she thought she was safe because she was crazy. The killer wouldn't target a crazy person, a crazy person wasn't a risk; no one listened to crazy people.

"Stars, so many stars. Golden. No, not golden. Ash? Yes, like Ash. Stories. Yes stories. Outcast? No!!!!" Cynthia added before cupping her head in her hands and gripping it tightly. She was rocking back and forth constantly now just mumbling incoherently. That was until Riley mentioned the picnic. Her head looking up slowly as her mind shifted to something less stressful.

"Hour before lunch. When is lunch? Twelve. Noon or midnight? Noon silly. So noon? No, hour before lunch. So eleven? But why eleven, why not just make it ten? Because it's eleven."

@IcePezz As long as it comes in before your counter roles over to day 6 you will be fine.
@Jotunn Draugr I am sorry but no. I do not grant special privilege for extension requests that come in at the last minute. You have been online (and posting) and were tagged two days ago by the Co-Gm to post. You could have informed us then that you need an extension. You have been active on the forum and been posting elsewhere. You agreed to the RP rules when you submitted your CS. Some of the things you agreed to and were made aware of were as follows -

From The Original OOC Rules -
  • Must IC post twice every 7 days
  • Know your personal posting limitations before applying to join
  • If you cannot post, you must contact the GM and make them aware, you will be granted extra time to post (do not take advantage of this) - I realize real life comes first but you know your schedule better than anyone, if you join it is your responsibility to keep up and not hold up the rest of the Rpers


From The About Your GM Blurb In The Original OOC -
  • I do expect the rules I put forth to be followed - all of them
  • my biggest pet peeve has always been and will always be those that do not follow posting rules set forth in RP. To not to do so is to be disrespectful to me and your fellow Rpers. I enforce posting rules more strictly than any other rules.
  • I am a firm believer of if you have time to spam and lurk you have time to post. It is all about managing your time wisely.


From The Required Reading Of The Rpers Guide To Etiquette -
  • Follow the rules
  • Pay attention to the posting requirements. Just because you like an RP doesn’t mean you should join. If your GM is saying post twice a week – that means post twice a week. You know your schedule and your tendencies better than anyone. Life does happen but if life happens so much that you know you are going to end up flaking out, have the courtesy to not join.
  • If you are going to be gone or something comes up and you cannot post – Let people know. Do not leave your fellow Rpers and your Gm hanging.
  • Know that when you join an RP you are basically giving your word you will be around, hold to that.
  • Plan out your posts if you are busy.


Now, once again, as stated in the rules - everyone has real life. Each one of the Rpers in the RP have work and/or school. They have busy schedules and they hare held to the same standards as everyone else. They agreed to follow them and have. Why they are here. To grant an extension to someone not following the rules is breach of RP etiquette I will not make. It is not fair to the other Rpers that have been busting their rear-ends as it were to ensure they get their posts in.

Had you simply responded to Sigil when he tagged you to make us aware, or actually before he did since it is honestly not the Gm or Co-gm's job to remind people to post, then an extension would have been granted. (We have granted many in the past when people inform us of what is going on) At this point though, no such extension will be granted.
@POOHEAD189 Long as the post comes in before your counter turns over you're fine.
@FantasyChic Thanks for getting that in girl, I'll be doing a WN in the morning, so you'll have stuff to respond to.

And don't exactly blame you there, doubles bite.
@Pundii You heard the woman >.>
@Scallop @POOHEAD189 @Sigil @Morose @Dragoknighte @Charnobylisk @Nallore @Pundii

I asked for clue sheets a while ago but only one has really even started. Everyone has until the counter of this post reaches day 8 to get one up and updated.
@Jotunn Draugr @FantasyChic K, remember because of the counters you will need to get 2 posts in fast. Waiting till day 5 puts you in a bad seat. Two posts are required per 7 days, hit day 8 without two posts means removal from rp. (Why most post on day 3-4 to ensure they don't go over)

@rivaan Cs approved, May be moved to cs tab.


The Infirmary



"Like hell I am staying in this cesspit of germs while you take your time to figure out what happened," Tristan spat as he looked at Fisher, his large eyes narrowing a bit as his thick lips thinned. He wasn't about to stay in the infirmary one second more than he had to and if he had to start throwing things, or people, to get out of there he would. The place was beneath him as far as he was concerned and there was no reason he should be in there right now anyways, if he was ever ill he was taken care of in his quarters.

Granted that was not only because that was how he wanted it, Crisna didn't want the man anywhere near her Infirmary or her staff. That was made perfectly clear by Crisna as her head popped out from around a corner behind Tristan and she eyed Tom, a please for the love of god get this asshole out of my infirmary before I end up having to spend one more moment listening to his bitching look.

Tristan crossed his arms over his chest for a moment, rolling his neck around as he took another step forward and stared Fisher down as if he was trying to be imposing. With the look on is face, it came off more comical than anything. Like a child trying to be threatening to an adult. "Are you going to move or will I have to move you myself?"



The Commissary



Marx smiled brightly towards Tryke and nodded as he followed her. "Thank you, jumps always make me hungry as hell," he said in an appreciative tone as he stepped over to her. It was true, for some reason it didn't matter if the man ate a full meal right before a jump, once it was done he was starving again. It didn't help any that since he got to Altenia that he had been at Silvia's side to make sure she was okay and getting filled in one what little she knew about the tower and the people within it after everything happened. His boss wasn't exactly happy that Silvia had only landed a within the last day and already so much was going on but he was sent anyways and he wasn't about to complain about it. It wasn't often he got to get off world from Earth.

"Nice to meet you, I'm Marx; Security Lead of Earth, but basically just Silvia's bouncer right now I think," he said laughing a bit as he stuck out his hand and and shook Tryke's hand enthusiastically. He didn't even seem to notice or care about the grease on her hand, he shook it nonetheless and then just shoved his hands in his pocket as he rocked back and forth on the heels of his shoes as he waited for the elevator to get to the proper floor.

Once the doors opened he looked out and smiled over to her. "Want to join me? Be nice to sit and gab a bit, well more like me listening to you while I shove food into my mouth; at least that is how Silvia describes having a meal with me," he said rolling his eyes a bit and bending out his elbow for her if she should care to take it. He was certainly friendly that was for sure and seemed pretty laid back.
