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."

"Me? In charge? God help us all," Atticus said with a smirk but he nodded and stayed put. He knew that Foy and Dorothy were more capable in a situation like this than he was, plus there was still a job to be done at the docks and someone had to do it. Thankfully it looked like he was about to have some help. Spotting Daphne, seemed she had finally gotten back. Stepping over to her he shook his head a bit.

"The prodigal daughter returns," he quipped quickly. "Listen, you are about to face fire and brimstone from your sister and Anisa, so you need to get back to work moving things from cargo over to the docks holding with Gods speed," he said motioning over to the ship.

Jahosafat waited for Harper to get finished up, starting on the other end of the room. A good portion of the ship was already complete thankfully. The Bridge was done, medical, galley, and so forth. Most everywhere was done and closed off with possessions already moved down into the cargo hold. He just had this room and a few others to do before he was finished. As Harper finished up he gave the man a nod.

"Good show young man. I will get on this with the upmost haste and be down toot-sweet. Oh rooms, yes. I believe our new captain is securing those for us when she goes to deal with the buyer. I am afraid though I have no information about the new ship though judging from the hot blooded woman I imagine whatever ship strikes her fancy will have some spunk to it," he said with a chuckle before getting back to work.

Thankfully for Fitz, the crowd seemed to thin a bit in front of the toy store. Though there were several street urchins standing out front looking in the window to see what was for sale. The largest and brightest of toys of course were in the window display, trying to get the attention of not the parents but the children. Hopes that one would strike a child's fancy and make them scream, and cry, and beg until mom or dad or the nanny gave in and bought it just to shut them the hell up.

Inside the store it was stunning. The more modern toys were set up in the front with various displays so children could test them out or try them. Several children running around looking here and there. Something grabbing their attention then something else. Clerks watched, several looking ragged already even though it was still early in the shopping day. Further back though was an adult only section but not for adult things. They were collectables and antiques, a quieter area that looked like it was out of a picture from hundreds of years before. The main thing on display was a hand carved marble chess set that an elderly man was dusting.

Down in the sewers, the ladder seemed in good enough condition though there were a few rungs that were loose or all together missing. It would make the climb a bit more difficult to get up, especially with an injury. Though truth be told, it was the far better option than trying to walk through the water that moved through the center of the sewers. It was dirty and lord only knew what diseases were festering in it, with an open leg wound it could complicate matters. The ladder went up a ways and then let off on a landing. Above that was the manhole cover.

Above the cover one could hear people walking and talking but it seemed a bit distant. As if right there was not in the middle of the street. This could get a good thing. That was, if one could get the manhole cover up and off to get a peak up there. Looking through the few holes in the cover itself, one couldn't see anything. There was light but where the light was coming from - the sky or something else, was anyones guess.
@Dark Light I am sorry but your counter has reached day 8. As per the rules of the RP, you are hereby removed from the RP.
@Sigil Will pm the results shortly.


Lola Holler


Location: North Of Newnan (Veterans Memorial Park - Corner of Temple Ave. & Jackson St.)



Lola glanced over towards Alexander out of the corner of her eye. He was asking about her tank and that was one of the few things that could be asked to bring her out her song. She started grinning from ear to ear as she flopped back more in her recliner. "How could I not! You see this baby?!? These tanks have been through wars, deserts, floods. You can't kill these tanks! And they run of practically anything. Aces mate. Petrol, liquor, hell I could probably piss in the tank and he'd keep going. Sure, not good on gas mile but when you can take your house with you, what does it matter? It'd take a nuke to kill my baby," she said proudly. Sure, she might have been exaggerating a bit when it came to the fuels it could take but she loved her tank. It was like a child, or a lover that never screwed up.

Placing her hand over her brows she looked towards the fire and shrugged a bit. "No ideas but don't really care. Fire means a lot of things, usually nothing good. Anyways, not headed south. Well not south west," she said in passing before looking back down into her MRE and finally pulling out a small one serving packet of dried instant coffee. Tossing it over to Alexander she grabbed the other MRE and tossed it to Thalia. In truth Lola didn't really have a direction to go, she had seen the smoke the day before but it really didn't get her interest.

She had run across enough people, good and bad, over the last years and while she didn't have a problem pulling over to the side of the road for a single person a few smoke stacks really wasn't interesting enough to get her attention for long. This was plenty evident as she ripped open the cocoa pouch and took a moment to make it in a cup before downing the hot chocolate liquid in one gulp. Following it up with a rather loud belch as she wiped her mouth with the back of her hand and started to dig into her Chili Mac & Cheese with gusto. Lola didn't seem to have a care in the world.



Gavin Comfort


Location: Outer Gate



Gavin looked over towards Ravi and flicked the tip of her hat back a bit. He took slight notice of the little lovers scene but paid it no nevermind since his best bro was speaking to him. Reaching out he took the greencard and smirked a bit, then chuckled, followed by a sigh. "Well Christ on a Cracker you Red Coat. Handing this overs to me? You really must not have gotten sleep last night or have lost what littles brains yous gots into that beard of yours," he teased as he pulled his wallet out and slipped the card carefully into a safe spot. Shaking his head a bit he placed his wallet into his back pocket once again and looked back over to Ravi.

"Well I ain't gots nothing fer yous, less you wants a knife or something. Tell ya whats, I find any beard creams whiles I out there, I be bringing's it backs with me. Till then, yous stay safe and watch over ol' Strawberrys fer me," he said with a broad grin before grabbing Ravi and pulling him in for a hard and rather awkwardly masculine hug. Patting on the back hard a few times before grabbing his gear and giving Ravi his customary tip of his hat. Strolling over to the truck he smiled at Thana before tossing his gear into the back and looking over towards James.

"Readies when you are Bateman," he laughed a bit as he climbed into the back of the truck and flopped down opposite of Ryan. "Howdy, names Comfort," he said as he held his hand out to the Irishman.

Miss sally placed her hand over her mouth for a moment. She hadn't expected to see that Ryan and Beatrice were leaving. She wasn't too surprised about Beatrice, she was friends with James and really didn't get along with many others in town. It half made sense but she had to wonder if Bea would be a help or a hindrance to James out in the wild. Ryan, wasn't friends with James and from the little scene it was more than obvious had a strong connection with at least one person in town. Then again, he was also friends with Beatrice. Maybe that was why he was going? Trying to figure Ryan out though... She just let the thought slip away. Gavin, that shouldn't have surprised her. She figured he could help and it was probably a good thing that Gavin wasn't going out there alone. She would need to speak to Ash about things once goodbyes were done.

Looking over to Ash she hoped things with the goodbyes went smoothly. Looking down at her watch, it was less than ten minutes before James had to be outside of the wall. That didn't leave a lot of time and Miss Sally knew that there was no room for long goodbyes. Taking a breath she walked over to James and gave him a quick hug. She didn't say anything, not wanting to hold up goodbyes for anyone else. She just gave him a smile and moved out of the way so others could take care of things quickly.



Thana Martin


Location: Outer Gate



Thana was more than happy that Ryan and Chloe were the ones making a scene and not Gavin at this point. Though she had to wonder why he was leaving with James as she spotted him coming over and climbing into the back of the truck. He smiled at her, she simply gave him a quick nod of her head but didn't move. She was there to support Ash right then, nothing more and nothing less. Maybe she should have said goodbye to James but she really hadn't even said hello to him since she arrived. Sure she had known him when she was younger but she didn't anymore in her mind and from the comment he had made earlier in the day he obviously didn't know her anymore. Goodbyes between the two of them was a waste of time in her mind.

Taking a parade rest stance she just stood there as Jim shook James hand and told him all his gear was packed up and ready. The man said goodbye and moved over to Miss Sally to get out of the way so others could have their five seconds. Seemed James was leaving with a bit of a group. The new comer Gavin, the criminal Ryan, and Beatrice (who he never really got to know). In his mind, four against the world out there was a better chance than one. Though Jim knew in the back of his mind that James had ways to stay alive, James would be fine. And if not, if trouble happened... Well, that was a story for another time.




Tatiana Korvo


Location: Outer Gate



"Aww dat vas sveet!" Tatiana said once the scene with Ryan and Chloe came to an end. Tatiana smiled a bit as she stood up and hobbled over to the truck. Looking at Ryan for a minute. "Not surprised," she said as she pulled open the truck door and glanced back to Jack giving him a knowing smile. She wasn't leaving but she was going to talk to James - outside of the gate, once goodbyes were done.

"James, ve talk, outside vhen done. Then you go and I come back inside," she said quickly before climbing into the driver side of the truck and slipped over to the center. Sitting there she waited for everyone else to say goodbye. This was not a talk she was looking forward to but it needed to be done in her mind and Ash had suggested it. Though she hadn't been expecting three more to be with him but she didn't care. She figured they could wait in the back of the truck while they spoke. She had to be sure he wouldn't be a danger to himself or the town when he left. She was pretty sure he wasn't but she wasn't about to not check. She had made the mistake with Sana and she wasn't going to let that happen again.

"But of course," Froggy said with a sad smile. Others were climbing into the truck now. He wondered why Tatiana was climbing into the cab until she spoke. Then it made sense and he was glad something had been worked out. Walking over to James he shook the man's hand like Jim did and handed him the deck of cards. "You keep playing. Stay safe. Do what you do," he said before moving out of the way for the rest to say goodbye. Stepping back over to Niesha he nodded to her and motioned for her to go ahead and say her goodbyes and hand James the pack she had gotten together for him. With more than one leaving, it was more than a good thing she had put that together.



Ryan O'Reily


Location: Outer Gate



Ryan looked at Ash and smirked. "No need to get sappy with me Army. I knows you love me. Place just ain't gonna be the same without the luck of the Irish around," he chuckled. Resting his head on the back of the cab as James came over he shrugged a bit. "Well some of us just refuse to live without your cooking so we're going with you," he added as he got comfortable and bent a knee. Resting his hand over it he twirled Chloe's hair on his finger a bit as he waited for all the sappy goodbyes to be done.

Gavin joining them was a bit of a surprise to the Irish but then again he didn't know the man. After seeing the scene between Gavin and Thana earlier and the fact Thana seemed to be sticking to Ash like glue - boring dull glue - but glue nonetheless, he kind of wished James had waited twenty-four hours to kill Old Dick. He would have liked to see how this drama unfolded but then again it seemed Gavin was coming with them, he could get the story behind all this shit on the road. Looking at the extended hand in his direction he just let out a breath and didn't return the shake to start. "Ryan, you can call me Irish," he said before finally shaking the mans hand - a quick, dismissive one, but he at least shook it.

Seeing Tatiana and hearing what she said he rolled his eyes a bit. That woman liked to pick at peoples minds but at least she wasn't his target right now. James was. That was a good thing about leaving Newnan; he wouldn't be forced to sit on her couch like the rest of the town to discuss his feelings. He hated that prissy little dancer and her over perkiness. Not being around her and the love struck Bostonian was reason enough to get the fuck out of Newnan in his book.

Barracks (Infirmary/Front Gate): The representative to the prison looked over towards Lord Major and nodded. "خائف. كانوا في مكان الجريمة. لم ير أحدهم يدخلون الجبهة لكن موظفي المطبخ رأواهم يأتون من الخلف حيث تم العثور على الجثة. وقد اعترف الهروب بكسر دخول غرفة في الفندق ولكنه ذكر أن المرأة هناك اندلعت أيضا من خلال الشرفة. وفي أحسن الأحوال قد تكون مذنبة بالكسر والدخول، في أسوأ من ذلك، ملحق بالقتل. عربة أمر لا بد منه في هذه المرحلة.," the man said quickly to the Lord Major as the group made their way to the front gate. As they arrived the gate was opened and outside it awaited the ride for Josephine and Haakon.

Several guards from the prison stood outside what could be best described as a ~Paddy Wagon~ - A Vehicle that had seen better days, barred windows, it stank of many unmentionable things. One of the guards opened the back door and moved aside. Inside were two benches opposite each other on either side within the steel caged walls of the truck. "If you would," the man said looking at Haakon and Josephine as he motioned for them to get in. Meanwhile the Corporal drove up into the main courtyard and pulled to a stop. The man from the prison shot him a look. "You will be following us," he said rather frankly. It seemed his hospitable like attitude had run out.

Vera looked over towards Lauren confused as she sat there. Her hand pressing to her stomach a bit but at least whatever was ailing her seemed to be letting up. Why she had no idea but she felt better just sitting there. The rapid heart beat subsiding and the greenness to her skin fading away. "I do so hope not. I have much work to do and do need to be off to the museum to ready for Lady Kingstons arrival. It would be most unseemly of me to invite the lady to a luncheon and not be ready for her arrival," she said, completely oblivious to what was going on with her own body.

Sliding off the table she smoothed out her skirt a bit before forcing a smile to her lips. "If it would not be too much trouble, I would not mind you still coming with me. It seems that my escort has left me for more agreeable company," she said as she stood there. William had stormed off, why she had no idea but she would not rush after him to ask. He had offered, nay insisted, to take her to the museum but if he wished to be elsewhere who was she to say anything? What did he care? Oh, what she care that he didn't care? It mattered not to her, she told herself as she walked over to the door of the infirmary and swung it open. "I just need to collect my things from my room."
@Dragoknighte @Sigil @Morose @Scallop @Nallore - Okay, new post up - counters are reset to 7 once again starting with my last IC post. After that we go back to our standard 7 days from your last post IC.




Date: Monday May 22nd, 2017




Chicago Heights: - Iris would have plenty to do that morning even though she was not on call at the asylum that morning. There were emails a plenty from patients families wondering just what in the hell happened yesterday and that they were told basically nothing from the staff. She had only been there a short time but whatever established staff was there had no problem passing on the doctors name and email to her.

There was even an Email from the board...Due to recent events, the staff is being directed to speak to no one about the events that supposedly occurred on May 21st. We will be delivering a statement to the press by 4p.m. today. - It was short, sweet, to the point and basically rang of gag order. Seemed someone didn't get the message though because at the door there was a knock. On the other side was Amy Adams with her camera man and she looked to be hungry for anything but breakfast.

Zoies Farm: - The rest made their way into the kitchen and had a seat to grab breakfast. Zoie had cooked more than enough and it seemed everyone was digging in. Marc looked over at Mali and let out a sigh. "Yeah, well it's been an interesting last few days to say the least. Glad to know you aren't one of the bodies on a slab in the morgue," Marc said as he pulled out his phone and checked his messages. Flipping through the images that were sent to him he cocked a brow slightly before sending a message back to Iris.

"I think you may have just broke the case.." he typed in before sending the text back to Iris. Rubbing his face he looked at the pictures a few for minutes as Zoie told Relic to make sure to get more than the little he was putting on his plate. Sighing he sent out another text..."I'm alive and safe, guns taken care of; stay safe today." he typed out real quick and sent to Riley. Putting his phone away he turned his attention to the meal.

"So, anyone learn anything?" he asked before taking a bite of a piece of bacon.

Safehouse - Roy looked over to Riley and then down at his side. "It's stiff as hell but feeling better," he said before taking a seat next to Riley and grabbing one of the burritos that were left for them. Watching Riley for a minute, he stood back up and went over to one of the bag along the wall. Digging through it before shrugging to himself and picking it up. Bringing it back over to her he set it on the table with a bit of a grunt, his side hurting a little from lifting it.

"Some clothes in here, wigs, make up. Bag is Risa's bug out bag. Might be something in there you could use," he said as he reached in and pulled out a wig. "Maybe go incognito today," he chuckled as he looked at it before tossing it back into the bag and taking his seat again. "There are towels and soap in the bathroom if you want to grab a shower."

Justice Memorial Hospital: - The room did not hold much that a standard ICU room didn't. It had standard walls, except for the main one where the door leading out to the Nurses area was, it was glass but at least had curtains for privacy. Sadly there were no windows. There was no bathroom adjoined to the room, just a toilet seat with a screen separating it from the rest of the room. The IV was hooked up and running, solution with whatever meds were pumped into it pushing into Felix's vein on his left hand, the needle itself taped down to make sure it didn't move too much if he did. Oxygen tubes were hooked to the wall, running long until they came up and curled beneath his nostrils. A few blankets on the bed, which had a remote attached to it - call button, buttons to sit the bed up or lay it down, and to turn the TV on.

The broth was basic at best, as was the rest of the meal. It would be a long road to recovery - if something did happen, chances were not good that he could make a break for it. Blood loss, surgery, a missing eye with gauze taped over it, no clothing, a simple hospital gown, and a room with a 1 way exit made for poor escape plans. So many hours under anesthesia would leave the body worn and drained, tightness in the bowels, and more. Loss of so much blood would lead to days of lightheadedness and dizziness even with transfusions.

Justice Airport: - Natasha bit her bottom lip as she watched the video of Alicia. Glancing over at Caesar she knew the feeling. Not of losing a child but of losing a loved one. The doctor thought back to when she had lost her mother when she was young, how she felt when her father had died in her arms. She doubted either of those circumstances could compare to having a child murdered. She doubted even the pain she had gone through with her own surgeries could even come close.

The pilot nodded and made his way back into the cockpit, closing the door behind him as the main door to the plane was shut by their inflight male steward. He took his seat as the general announcement went over the intercom; informing the passengers it would be a little more than six hours until they arrived to their destination but that the weather seemed to be in their favor so there shouldn't be any delays. Natasha looked over towards Cecily and smiled slightly to her. "Once we get to cruising height, I want to look at your wound and change the bandages," she said as she leaned back in her seat and the plane taxied down the runway.

In the airport itself, things were busy. It was Monday morning and early. Business people were rushing from one part of the airport to another to catch their flights or their connections. The food stops along the way all had long lines as people stared down at their phones, hardly paying any attention to the rest of the world moving around them. It was no wonder that airports were easy targets for bombings. No one noticed much of anything going on. Either talking on the phone, texting, plugged into whatever outlet they could find to charge their devices, eating, reading, running. They were so focused on their own lives, it hardly registered that anyone else had a life of their own. That was unless they bumped into someone. Thought at least it seemed right then in Justice, at least the planes were running on schedule. A flight was due in from Seattle at Gate A17 in 45 minutes.
Um... I have a theme song for each character, require it on cs's in rps I gm, have play lists and published spotify playlists for rps, use it as headers and clues in my rps...

So not at all, can't stand them, lol
@rivaan I will give you three guesses to what my answer to that question will be.
