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."

@rivaan K, good. I have to update tomorrow so having yours in will keep you from falling behind a round.
>TFM you decide that a header image isn't good enough for your upcoming RP and you decide to do a cut scene music video instead...

I must be fucking nuts...




Newhope




Dressmaker: The dress maker nodded a bit but her head turned sharply as she head the the door knob rattle in the slightest out front. "Seems I already am," she muttered to herself. She couldn't be sure that it wasn't a customer but it was highly unlikely. The locals did not seem to frequent her much and there had been talks for some time that she would just sell the place and move on. If it hadn't been for her past she would have. The sound at her door was a rare one, so it raised alarms.

Following Mei towards the back of the shop she grabbed a long brown duster from a hook and shoved it out of the door. "Here, for luck, for laughs, for the unknown," she said with a bit of a wink. Why she was helping this woman she had no idea but she felt that she wasn't the type that should be killed. She had come to the shop looking for help, not trouble. She hadn't threatened her, drawn a weapon on, made her nervous at all. Which was rare.

"Take it," she said as she handed it over. It was of fine quality and was reminiscent of the Brown Coats of old but much more updated and hooded as well. Giving the woman one last half smile she slipped back into her shop and shut the back door quietly. Turning around she rushed to clean up all signs that she had helped anyone with a wound in her shop. Blood soaked items were placed in the red dye bath for her fabrics. She could dump that later in the day but it would serve well enough to cover a trail. At least she hoped it would.

The alleyway way clear and well kept, much better than the one Mei had crawled in. It ended at the back of the alley unfortunate and the only exit was around the corner and down the street she had come in on but since the alley wrapped around the back the rest of the shops on that side of the street for that block it put her out north of the Toy shop, well down and out of sight of the stores front.

Prometheus/Docks: Atticus turned his head slightly and nodded towards Daphne. "You and me both," he said before looking over as he heard a ship. His hand coming up to cover his brows and shield his eyes from the sun light. The ship looked like a Firefly but much more updated. He had heard of ships that had been made after the Firefly but he hadn't ever seen one of the more modern ones. Standing up as it touched down he glanced towards Jahosafat. "Think it is our new ride?"

"I do hope so my good man. Tis quite a ship, much nicer than the first, not as nice as the last," he said as he adjusted his hat.

"Good run Harper, collect your things from the dock and load up into this room," she said as she stepped into the hallway right outside of the bridge. Turning she made her way through the ship, down a floor, and out of the main cargo door. Glancing around she spotted three of her remaining five crew members that should have been there. She saw no sign of Dorothy or Foy still, they had better be bringing her someone's head on a platter for being gone this long.

"Room assignments are as follows," she said as she stepped over to the three, not even wasting time with greetings. She rarely did. "Atticus, Upper Deck, Starboard Side, over wing. Jahosafat, Upper Deck, Port Side, over wing. Daphne, Lower Deck, Stern, Port Side, First Single from Med Bay," she rattled off before turning on her heels and making her way over to the storage dock and retrieving a crate of her things. "Load your things first, then start loading the rest of general supplies. Do NOT touch Foy or Dorothy's things until further notice," she added in passing as she walked back onto the ship.

Toy Shop: Royus kept his eyes on the board but he seemed to know what was going on in the shop. "One step closer and you'll regret it laddy," he said in a stern voice as the sound of a gun clicking beneath the table could be heard. The boy that had been trying to shop lift was standing off to the side, but his ~friend~ had come up towards Fitz and his hand was nearly on the mans back pocket. Holding his hands up he backed up slowly before both of them tore off.

Royus gently placed the hammer down on his gun as he drew it out from under the table and rested it next to the board. "Stupid kids," he muttered before his eyes brightened and he made another move in the game. "Check mate lad," he said happily as he clapped his hands together and sat back in his seat. "Well played game I must say. Been some time since someone gave me a run for my money," he said, praising Fitz. It seemed genuine the way the old man spoke.

Standing up he smiled at Fitz and held his hand out to shake the boys, showman ship seemed to be important to the old man. "Should keep your eyes peeled a bit more. Those type of boys are always out and about trying to gain a quick buck instead of working for it. Harmless enough, if you don't mind being broke," he chuckled.

Merchant Area: The leather worker eyed Foy for a moment, looking down at his feet once again before he placed down his needle and thread. "Ain't seen shit," he said roughly. Walking over to a large wall storage unit he started pulling out drawers until he found what he was looking for. "These should work, will be a bit tight until broken in," he grumbled as he set them down on the counter and unlaced them. They were finely crafted. They had to be, this mans personality probably couldn't sell anything if purchases were based on his way with customers.

"Socks? Try down the block. That'll be 5k in credits," he stated matter-of-factly. The price was high, very high, but again, so was the quality. Maybe not that high but from the look on the mans face he wasn't about to barter. Sitting down slowly behind the counter he waited for an answer as he looked out the front of his shop. His brow rose slightly before turning his attention back to Foy. Over at the dress shop, everything sounded still from inside the shop. No lights could be seen. No sound could be heard but that could be from the sounds of the street covering up anything coming from the inside.

You would probably do better advertising this in the 1x1 interest check section.

*Quick Note: Color codes for location headers will denote time of day basically. Not so much tie of day but look for matching ones to see if you are in the same ~time frame~ as others.

Private Hangar in Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, Mexico : Natasha shook her head a bit. "No, no questions and thank you," the doctor said before looking over at Cecily. "Yeah, good idea," she added before making her way over to the limousine. Opening the door slowly and sliding inside. She obviously wasn't feeling up to par but she had expected that. Flights, first class or not, drained her these days.

"Ugh," she muttered as she crawled over to one of the long bench like seats along the side of the limo and half laid down. Sure it wasn't the most proper thing to do but Natasha could really give a shit less. Pulling her phone out of her bag she turned it back on and waited for it to power up, resting her arm over her forehead as she did. Hitting a few buttons she made a call.

"Hey sweetie," she said before swallowing a bit and rolling over onto her side in fetal position. "Yeah, we landed. No, everything's fine. What? Yeah, a bit. No, wasn't as bad as the flight back from India. Heat? Sucks but not as bad as that damn room in Jaipur. Yeah, that really was a shit show. Just waiting to leave the airport now. I am resting, seriously. Laying down right now. In a limo. Yeah I know. Oh fuck that, bottled water only. I'll be fine. I promise. Yes, I have my meds. Lincoln, baby,.... Fuckwad! ~laughing slightly~ Thought that might shut you up. Don't worry, I promise I will take it easy. Oh, she's healing fine. Yeah, changed the bandages on the flight. Because she's my patient and I wasn't trusting her to some back world ER intern. Didn't we already go over this? Hey, you never complained. Okay, you complained but you got well didn't you? Not my fault you decided to go toe to toe with Irish. How is Murph? Oh shit, sorry I am missing that. Give Clair and Murph a hug from me. Okay. I will. I love you too. Bye," she said before hanging up and tossing her phone back in her bag, groaning a bit as her finger fiddled with a blue stoned engagement ring on her left ring finger.

Zoie's Farm: "Dress it is," Zoie said as she turned off the coffee pot and looked at the group. "Come on, let's get moving," she added quickly. Marc was already starting up the car and Relic was quick to follow him out the door. Zoie sighed a bit as she looked back over to Mali. "Yeah, we will figure something out while we are dress shopping. Relic will take care of ID's for you once we do," she said stepping out of the door and heading over to the limo.

Hopping into the car and pushing Relic to one of the side seats Zoie got comfortable and unbuttoned her suit jacket. "So, where too first?" Marc asked as he rolled down the center partition.

"Diamond district, gong to spoil my girl today," she said with a sly grin.

"Going all Pretty Woman on her? But aren't you the hooker?" Relic said, poking fun at his sister which got him a swift hit upside the back of his head. Relic just laughed and keyed up the song Pretty Woman on his laptop.

"You really need an ass kicking," Zoie snickered as she rolled her eyes. Marc just smirked and faced forward, waiting for everyone to be situated before taking off back towards the city.

Justice Asylum: Nurse Cratty looked over towards Iris and sighed a bit. "Yeah, about eight or nine years old," she said answering the doctors question. Closing the filing cabinet she tossed a stack of papers down on her desk and shrugged.

"Yeah, might as well, if she is awake and goes after you... Well I doubt you could fight off a fly," Cratty said as she picked up her keys and slipped them into the front pocket of nursing gown before pushing her chair back in. A younger nurse was making her way over towards the station and Cratty snapped her fingers towards the girl. The girl got a look of worry on her features as she hurried over.

"Yes Nurse Cratty?" she asked nervously.

"Watch the monitors, page me if anything goes wrong. Going to check on our latest snapped case," she said before motioning to Iris to lead the way. "Alright whippersnapper, let's get a move on."

Gun Range: Roy took a stance behind Riley with his arms crossed over his chest as he watched her. Pulling his headphones off as she finished he took the gun from her and ejected the clip, setting both down on the counter between the range and where they were. "Let's find out," he said as he reached over and hit the button to bring the target back to them.

As he came over he reached up and tore it down. Looking over it he pursed his lips slightly as he studied it. "Not bad," he said honestly. Out of the entire clip she had missed completely a few times, not even hitting the paper of the target, about a third of the shots hit the paper but not the outline of the man, the rest had hit in various places. "Seen worse, let's try again," he said tossing the target down on the floor and grabbing another one before sending it down to the end of the range again.

Grabbing another clip he set it down and motioned for her to go ahead and take it. "This time relax your shoulders as you squeeze the trigger, bend your knees a bit. Don't get so tense, the more relaxed you are the better. More you do it, more it becomes muscle memory over thought.

Justice Memorial: The nurse eyed him for a minute. He had called her in there, yelled for her, to use the phone? "Seriously? You bellow at me like I am some servant instead of hitting the call button to page me over wanting to make a phone call?" she said in a berating voice. She could have half understood if his meds were wearing off and he was in pain, but this? This was a waste of her time.

"Listen, I have patients that need actual help, you want concierge service, you can wait for the bell hop," she said as she pushed his food tray closer to the bed.

Code Blue, Room 269," an electronic voice rang out over the wards intercom. Turning on her heels the nurse rushed out of the room, the door closing heavily behind her as she dash to answer the code call, which kept repeating for another half a minute before the place went eerily silent.

Precinct 54: The phone rang a few times before it was finally picked up by the FBI Operator. "Yes, just a moment while I transfer you to the proper office," the woman's voice said and the line went to some horrifically amazing hold music. It was a good five minutes before someone else picked up the line.

"Organized Crime Division, Special Agent Collins speaking. Detective Khurana was it?" a mans voice chimed in on the other end of the line. "Shit, hold on," he added quickly as he pulled the phone away from his mouth but didn't cover it or put her on hold. "No, that file goes to the Chicago Field Office. The other one goes to Houston," he said before turning his attention back to his phone call. "Sorry about that. So, what can I do for Justice PD?" he asked, there was a certain obvious tone of sarcasm in his voice when he said the word Justice.
Quick note - Sigil and I will be collabing Thana and Ash's next post.
In Mahz's Dev Journal 9 yrs ago Forum: News
Is there a way that in forum areas for Rp is could display IC post total instead of "all post total" or to break it down. It can be rather misleading when skimming for rps to join and such to see an Rp with a thousand posts only to click on it and find that 90% of that is ooc spam and not actually anything to do with Rp.
@BlueSky44 - Once again you are going to have to edit. You are still missing something and at this point I can come to no other conclusion than you just are not reading posts.

One of the rules of the RP is as follows -

Keep up with all IC and OOC posts

This means all posts, not just ones you think pertain to you. This is the at least the 3rd post edit I have had to request from you in as many months. Next one will be removal from the RP.
@The Grey Dust Oh hun, you crit fucked that roll - Thomas senses something alright, his nostrils are filled with a pungent smell of sulfur and root vegetables. Poor thing just had a back flash of life in the tavern before his arrival, the dreaded night Keystone released the Kraken. Please refer to this post - roleplayerguild.com/topics/89276-dupl… - for the original description of the event and this post - roleplayerguild.com/topics/89276-dupl… for the description of the ~outcome~ -

Due to a secondary roll having to be made against Thomas's constitution, in which he failed miserably....Thomas will be reacting very much in the same way Femnal did.

Good luck...
