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

⚘ 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."

@Morose That works, go ahead
@Oliver Since it is such an overhaul, just type it up and post it here in the OOC so I can take a look before hand. Then I'll let you know. It shouldn't be a problem but I want to double check to be safe.

@Morose
-Change his relationship status to Engaged (or should I just put him down as Married already?) - Go ahead and put down married
-Personality wise, I'd like to swap out his trait of "Clingy" for "Goofy." Probably add a paragraph detailing that as well. - Let me see the paragraph before hand
-Under fears, could I add losing Tatiana? - Yeah, no worries there with adding that one in
-For theme song, I'm thinking Thinking Out Loud by Ed Sheeran fits better for him now. - Yeah, no worries about changing the theme song. That is more just a let me know that the theme song will be changed.


Scooby Gang

Location: Grand Continental



"Nothing in my heart for this man, nor has there ever been. He is nothing but a conman and a thief. And from the looks of it, a murderer as well. So please, remove him from my sight!" she hissed coldly.

Sgt Walsh had heard enough and grabbed Abbas by the scruff of his neck, forcing the man to turn out his pockets, he held nothing else in them. "Sir, would you be so good as to come with me to dispose of this man. I believe the ladies will be safe here and can take care of themselves," he said before shoving Abbas to the door.

Aziza nodded in thanks to the two as Walsh forced the man out of the room. Shaking her head she looked back down at the necklace before handing it over to Josephine. "That man has been a blight on this world since his birth from what I can tell. I made the misfortune of running into one night long ago," she said before continuing.

Aziza took a seat on the couch and sighed. She told Josephine something she didn't really tell anyone. She spoke of her past, of her son, how she was driven out of her home because of a false claim of adultery made against her, how she was nearly stoned to death on her retreat from the home she had known. She showed the woman some of the smaller scars that were visible but barely noticeable at this point. How she had run into Abbas one evening when she was homeless and without much of anything. How he had robbed her and how she had nearly killed him that night before he ran off. It was not an easy venting of her past but she managed to get through it. "All I want is to see my son again..."


Elsewhere In The City



"Yes, that would be welcome," Vera said towards Lauren at the mention of a drink. Peter looked over to her, a worried expression on his face as he stepped over to her and brushed her hair back out of her eyes, placing a soft kiss to her brow.

"You just relax, Uncle and I will be back post haste," he said in a caring voice before looking back over towards Reginald and motioning towards the vehicle. He didn't look forward to walking the distance to the hotel with his leg. Vera bit her bottom lip slightly before shuffling off with Lauren into the officers club.

In the safety of the Officers Club she sat down on a love seat and touched the place where Peter had kissed, he wasn't always so affectionate but she was not going to fault him right then. Then her thoughts went to another and she sighed. Shaking her head and her thoughts clear of the mess she reached out and took a flute of champagne from one of the servants and downed it rather quickly before taking another off the same tray as she replaced it with the empty one.

Across town, the officers finished their questioning of Nora and others within the building before making their way to the next and then the next. The desk clerk rubbing the back of his neck before looking over to her. "The town is in an uproar tonight, there is no mistake about that Miss. It is probably a good thing you came back here when you did, lord knows only what type of ruffians are out and about tonight. If there anything I can do for you? Perhaps call for a meal to be brought in? Or to fetch the surgeon for something to help you sleep?"
@Charnobylisk @Morose @Rivaan @Sigil @FantasyChic @Caits @Nallore @Oliver -

Okay peeps, our characters have been through a lot. Some have changed in some ways. Because of this, for the next week if you need to add something to either their personality, likes, dislikes, or to change their theme song - tag me here in OOC to let me know you need to edit and what you are changing. Once you have the okay from me at that point, you will have 24 hours to change it.
@Charnobylisk Omg... ran across this and all I could think about was Zoie and Dick. Excuse me, I'm going to go have a break down!

@Morose Glad it was Dayquil, Niquil would have knocked you out for the next week LOL Glad you are feeling better.


Kyra & Sana

Location: Cross Swords Tavern
Interacting With: In General
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~


Femnals eyes widened as he saw Keystone enter the tavern carrying a.. bride?!?!?!? How in the hell had that sour ass gotten a woman he thought to himself, remembering the last time Keystone was in the tavern. The thought alone was enough to make Femnal's eyes water and his gag reflex kick in as his eyes started to water. He actually threw up in his mouth a little and was forced to swallowed it back down hard in the process at the memory of the alabaster chum that had ejected from his mouth portal.

"I swear by the gods, if you do what you did last time you were in here you will be the next in a grave Keystone!" he warned as he slid off his chair and stalked over to the man who towered over him by at least three feet. Looking at Sana for a moment, who was curled weakly in Keystones arms his anger went away and were replaced with concern. Now that he was out from behind the bar it was clear he hadn't fared well over the last days. His once bright clothing was war torn and burnt, torn and tattered with a heavy layer of blood and mud. He held several new bruises on his hands and his fingers tips were turning black. His once cheery face was ragged and scared slightly down the left side.

"Take her to the temple, quickly..." Femnal said in earnest before directing a few tavern wenches to prepare rooms for the travelers as Kyra came up next to them. "Greetings Lady Kyra, I take it you all haven't had a good trip..."

"To say the least, that ass Cremwise you set us up with betrayed us and the entire town," she spat, not caring who heard at this point. Femnal looked honestly shocked and asked for more information. Kyra filled him in as quickly as possible and he spat on the floor.

"Where is he..." the little man growled like a beast under his breath. Kyra was further forced to explain she had not seen him in days, since the last fight. "I see...." he added before looking back at Keystone. "Hurry, get her to the temple, take any healers you have with you."

"Satilla, that means you. Go with Keystone, I'll take care of the rooms and the food. It'll be waiting when you return," Kyra said, taking charge again. Sana coughed slightly and curled up tighter against Keystone, shiver slightly. She was not longer suffering from hypothermia but it was clear she still had the after affects.

The old man looked at Magnus and narrowed his eyes. "That's all! I wish I knew more! I don't get paid per head ya know. Why'd you think I'm drinkin' meself to an early grave? Ain't because I likes the taste," the man snapped before downing the rest of his ale and tossing a few old coppers down on the table. Turning he stormed off, knocking the chair over and not really caring. Stumbling drunkenly towards the door he nearly ran smack into Sana and Keystone but was quickly elbowed hard in the ribs by Kyra who sent him flying into another table. "What where you are going you ass," she hissed.

@Morose - On day 7 here as well.
@Morose Ick, was wondering what happened. You're counters never reach max lol. Hope you're feeling better today.


Ryan O'Reliy


Location: Building A (Outside of Ash's House)
Interacting With: No One



Ryan was floored, speechless. Nothing was uttered out of his mouth once Thana revealed her face after the whole "holy fuck". The cigarette he was smoking falling from his fingers and into the wet snow at his feet, sizzling for a brief second before being extinguished. It wasn't like Ryan to just waste a little nicotine stick like that but it also wasn't like him to be silent.

Could this really be happening? A doppelganger just waltzing into Newnan like this? It wasn't until Richard had broke through the crowd and spoke that he finally blinked. He understood the confusion that was sweeping the crowd, hell he was confused. He hadn't remembered Zoie ever speaking about a sibling but then again, thinking back on things, Zoie really didn't talk about her life before the out break. Sure, everyone knew her and James had known each other since she was young and that she was from Leesburg originally but beyond that she really didn't talk about it.

For Zoie talking about it had been like talking about Eden, it was part of her life she didn't want to relive. Ryan had always chalked it up to her marriage before the outbreak and what she had went through with that. Who would want to talk about that shit? No one. It was the same reason that Ryan didn't talk about his prison days except in passing. Sure he talked about Eden but that was because the town needed to know to better their defenses.

Miss Sally stood there, glancing over at Richard and resting a hand on his shoulder as he stopped in front of the porch to Ash's home. She could see the pain in his eyes and it made her feel pity for the towns resident dick. Everyone had liked Zoie, she was full of life, but Richard had loved her and he hadn't been the same since she passed. Her eyes moved over towards Ash and she gave him a slight head shake, as if to reinforce his decision not to shoot Richard out right.

Those on the Wall had no idea what was happening. Even Sana couldn't see at this point through her scope anymore than she had before. The girl just stood there wondering why so many seemed to be freaking out and why Richard was now looking like he was broken. Lyon glanced towards Ciel and chuckled, the way one does when they can't believe the words that come out of someone's mouth. "Oh don't worry little one. If they were going to kill us we wouldn't be armed for the wall and Sana wouldn't be in the tower with the sniper rifle," he assured the child.

Reaching into his pocket he pulled out a bit of dried meat James had given him, it had been cooked too long for human but was fine for dogs. "Here give Peaches this," he said handing it over. Looking at the others. "Whatever it is, I am sure it is fine. We'll fine out in a bit. No use getting our worries up," he said trying to put worries to rest. He knew it wasn't going to work but hey he had to say something as the defacto leader of the Franklin section since Beni had stepped down. Beni just nodded in agreement.



Thana Martin


Location: Building A (Outside of Ash's House)
Interacting With: The Gathered Crowd



Thana stood there stoic as she saw the reality of the situation sink in for some of those in the crowd. She had been briefed on what could happen and right then it seemed like Ash hadn't been far off the mark. Everyone looked to be in some sort of shock, not really understanding or perhaps just not accepting that she was standing there. It looked like Thana's thoughts had been confirmed, no one had any clue she had ever existed. That little piece of knowledge bit hard even though it hadn't been unexpected.

It was a dark haired girl that finally broke the initial shock and silence, asking a question. Thana turned her attention to her to address her directly. "Leesburg, Georgia," Thana said in a clear voice. She was going to explain more but there was a slight ruckus in the crowd and a man came pushing his way to the front. Thana looked him over. He was rough and scraggly, though handsome. Seemed the very type that Zoie would have been attracted to. He seemed rather hurt and his voice wavered as he said a single word. Daisy? She didn't understand why he was saying this word to her but figured he wasn't asking her about daisy's. As Ash answered, Thana came to a little bit of an understanding. This man must have called Zoie by the nickname of Daisy.

Reaching out, Thana rested her hand over Ash's shoulder. "It be a'right Captain," she said before taking a step forward, and then another; her heels clicking on the porch as she stepped up to Richard and looked up at him as she took her cover off. Her brown hair falling to frame her face. That was what was different, the hair. Zoie's had been sunkissed sandy blonde but Thana's was dark, like chocolate. Yet there was a peeking of roots that were much lighter. Her hair was dyed to be darker than it's true shade. That was what was making her look more different than she should. Tucking her cover beneath her arm she tilted her head, observing the man for a moment before speaking.

"Ya must be Richard. I'm sorry but I'm not who you think I am." Her voice was so like Zoie's. Not as colorful in her speech nor as heavily accented but it still sounded like her.

Taking a breath she looked back over the crowd, it seemed it was time for a little bit of explaining. Clearing her throat she tried to give them a bit of understanding. "I know this must come as a shock to y'all. I was just as shocked as you are when I came within the walls. It seems that y'all knew Zoie Martin, or as you knew her Zoie Crawford. Let me see if I am clarify a few things right quick like. I am Zoie's younger sister, by all of eight minutes. If y'all are in doubt of my identity, please turn to Mr. James Graham. He can vouch for me. I moved away from Albany back when I was eighteen and joined the U.S. Navy. I ain't been back to the Albany area since and have not spoken to any of me family since I left. I was unaware that Zoie had been living here until her death, or even that she had married in my absence." Thana's words were to the point, not flowered with the usual Georgia Backwoods phrases her sister used but there was the same kindness in their inflection.

"A twin?" Miss Sally asked as she stood there looking over Thana.

"Yes ma'am, identical. Well genetically. We are two very different people. We weren't ever close," Thana said before looking back to Richard. "I'm sorry for the shock and yer loss," she said sympathetically. Taking a couple of deliberate steps back from him she looked back over at Ash as she placed her cap back on before looking at the crowd again. "I was a Lt. Commander in the U.S. Navy. I am not a medical doctor. I'm a botanist. I have been extended an invitation to stay here and help with the crops. Fer personal reasons not sure I'll stay here with y'all. We'll see but hope that clears up some thangs."

"Captain, maybe we should let them go fer now and let everything sink in. I can answer more questions later if they have them," she added at the end as she looked back over to Ash.
