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

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."

Newhope




The dressmaker nodded and grabbed her scissors before cutting away part of the fabric surrounding the injury. She didn't want to rip them even though a quick rip she could easily repair. The ripping might jostle the woman and make the injury even worse. For all she knew there was a bullet lodged in the muscle. Grabbing a cloth and wetting with with some water from her glass she started to clean away the blood that had run down Mai's skin so she could get a better look.

"You lucked out," she said as she finally got a clearer look at it. The bullet at hit and done some damage but it was along the outer edge of the thigh muscle and while it had gone in, it had also passed through. "No bullet to pull out," she added before looking around. "I can wrap it up or stitch you. Wrapping will get you moving faster but also keep bleeding until you can get stitches. Stitching is going to hurt and best I can offer is something for you to bite down on," she explained. "Choice is yours."

Royus chuckled and smiled over to Fitz. "Well then, build away. Slowly turning into a robot might just be a new lease on life," he said lightly. The kid seemed alright even if he seemed a lot more nervous than he really needed to be. That stutter the poor boy had probably didn't help. Leaning forward he looked down at the board and then back at Fitz. "Your move lad," he said gesturing to the pieces.

"So how long have you been on Newhope? Just arrive today?" he asked. The question may have already been answered but Royus couldn't remember. He was old, so things slipping his mind was common, or at least he played it up as common to keep people from constantly bothering him. could be a coin toss.

"Yeah, I figured as much," Anisa stated as she continued to walk. What else was he going to do? Refuse to give her an answer if she asked him a question? That really wouldn't be the best choice considering the situation. Pulling out a cigarette she lit it and took a long puff as she glanced towards him out of the corner of her eye. "Thoughts on the crew?" she asked. They had a small walk in front of them and while Anisa was never one to go for small talk, knowing his opinion on the crew could give her an idea of how people were going to work together. Day to day she really didn't care if they fought constantly, as long as they got the job done. Now, when the shit hit the fan, that was an entirely different story.

"Well, my most biblical one, it seems that there is a bit of an issue entering your soon to be former domicile. The door is locked up tight, might you by chance have a moment to spare so that I can clean it? It is the last room to complete before I am done. The rest of the ship is already done. Where is that fiery captain?" Jahosafat said as spotted Atticus. Atticus cocked a brow and pulled Jahosafat to the side to speak with him quietly. The ebony gentleman nodded a bit.

"I see, well dare i say the rest of the ship is done and I do need to ensure no one else enters it at this point," he added.

"Right," Atticus said before looking around and finally spotting Daphne. "Other than this cargo area the ship is firmly off limits to everyone from this point forward. I will be right back. Do NOT go anywhere other than to move cargo to the holding dock," he called out to her before heading off to unsecure his room so Jahosafat could finish up.

Case updates! Remember, those of you outside of buildings will see others - if you decide to interact you will need to cut the case short and start a combined ~case~ - PM me if you decide to do this so I know what is up! If you are not going to interact with each other, no issues, just make sure to take notice of shit going on around you. Outside of the Infirmary at this time the red truck is parked but no one from the Save Miss Sally case is outside as of yet. (They managed to get inside before anyone else got to that area of the town.)

If you have any questions on where someone might be at a particular time - PM me and I will let you know. Make sure to check everyone else's cases to see where they were at at the end of their last post. Also check the current cases to give you an idea of what else your characters might be seeing within town.

Okay, WN coming today. Those that ~left off~ at the end of their time frame in the case, will be getting an update so you can pick up where you left off and continue. Sigil, Morose - you two will be getting a new case since at this point in the Save Miss Sally Case you are exit stage left. Those in the Save Miss Sally Case, you are on day 8 of 14. Those ~outside~ of cases, keep proceeding as per usual, you are on the standard counters for those characters. If you are in a case and have characters outside of a cases, you are basically on multiple counters. Counters for each case, and then counter for the characters outside of the case, so keep track!

Again, if you have any questions, concerns, suggestions when it comes to cases, please pm me and let me know.
@Morose @Sigil @mnkee @Rivaan @Sputnik - Due to being in court on Monday, I will be updating here tomorrow. Those that have not posted for the last round (including those behind in counters), please get those in before I update. (Some of your counters will be on day 6 soon anyways.)
Hypocrites are currently at the top of my list.

You know the ones I am talking about. They bitch people don't follow their rules when they GM but they won't follow anyone else's. They complain that people drop them or vanish but they do it all the time. Whine about partners never being there for them but god forbid you need them. They are ALL OVER THE DAMN PLACE!

Seriously? Yeah, talking to you ~points to the one in the center, third row~ Grow the hell up! Don't expect anyone to do anything you aren't willing to do yourself. Like post, reply, and not ghost. Stop whining and live up to the expectations you place on others!

~toddles off~


Kyra & Sana

Location: Tavern
Interacting With: Various
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~


"You sure you can handle it?" Kyra asked as she sat there and finally got a bite to eat. It wasn't anything from the kitchen, just from her personal stores but it was something. She wasn't about to order a meal, she wanted to get to the tower as quickly as possible. Sitting there waiting for someone to cook something, then bring it out, then eat it, then pay.... Yeah, that wasn't going to work for her.

Sana just nodded and glanced over towards the door as some of their group returned. "Yeah, I got it," she said without looking back at Kyra. Kyra cocked a brow but let it go now that others had returned. Sana looked down and rearranged the arrows in her quiver. She wanted them set just right if she need to go for them. After that she checked her boot laces to make sure everything was set. Now that some were back it wouldn't be long until Kyra was pushing for them to leave.

"Well do what you need as quickly as you need, soon as the rest are back we are leaving. We want as much daylight time as we can get. Potions might have to wait, don't know how long it will take you to make those but if you just gotta pull something from the beetles, then I suggest you get on it," Kyra said to Thomas before tossing the last few bites of her jerky down to Ash who took it in a single snap of his jaws and horked it down.
@Nallore Me either! I think those will be a lot of fun. ONL's case is a type of supply run and it went really well over all. will give us some fun time outside of the walls now that we have different groups.


Another day, another gush moment! This time for Darker Than Black! As of yesterday, the current case was solved and thus brings a close to Chapter 2. Now while we are in the same topic for the RP, each chapter denotes a completed RP in essence. That means two are done now. Chapter 3 is starting next week and a new case is open for the solving. I

I could not be more proud in the Rpers that are in it. @Dragoknighte @Sigil @Morose @Scallop @Nallore: All of you have been in it since the beginning. Granted some of you have lost characters and had to bring in more but you are still going! Each case another one of you solves it. Drago solved the first, Morose our most recent. Looking forward to seeing Chapter 3 come into play and how it is solved this time. (Not to mention by who!)

So, as with The Walking Dead - Let us take a little trip down memory lane and remember those we have lost and those will probably die soon enough if Lady Luck has her way, lol!

Now... ALL ABOARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!

@Morose @Rivaan @Sigil @FantasyChic @Caits @Nallore @ONL

I don't know about everyone else but

1) I am loving reading the cases so far! instead of a para here, a para there, waiting and going back and forth for weeks to cover an hour of time - we get to see a whole chunk at once. Seeing the flow of the posts so far is amazing. (There are some still not posted but they will be shortly.)

2) OMG, I am having some down right damn fun I haven't had a lot of in RP for a while being part of these cases. Let's be quick fire and be part of the RP instead of okay ~here is what you see, this is what you can do~.

Hope everyone is enjoying the ~Cases~ - If not please drop me a line and tell me where you think improvements could be made or even a ~can you keep me out of future ones because collabing takes too much time for me~ and I will do my best to keep things set up traditionally for you. ^_^
