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."

The Walking Dead
Year Three Tribute To The Fallen #2


Okay, this one turned out a lot better than the first. The program was much easier to use, didn't have those crappy banners on it and since I already had a little bit of an idea of what to do, this one came together a lot faster for me. As with the first tribute video, this one is also in remembrance of all those we had lost in the Rp up until this point.

Music: Centuries By Fall Out Boy

The Walking Dead
Year Three Tribute To The Fallen #1


Yeah, this isn't the best video. I was messing around with a free program just to see what I could do. It turned out alright but in the end, it wasn't one that I thought did the Rp justice so I ended up remaking it later on with a better program and taking a lot more time on it. This video is a tribute to the numerous deaths we had in the first part of the RP, which there were a shit ton...

Music: Nothing Else Matters By Metallica




Yes, I know. This isn't your general collection of art work. This is a collection of music videos I have created for the various Rps I host. Some are in remembrance of those that have died, others are of a certain scene that happened in the RP, perhaps a ship or two has been thrown in there. I figured I should put together a topic so I could easily find them and organize them. Sure, they are posted on the original OOC posts for each of my RP's if they have to do with that particular RP but hey I like to keep things for easy access. So this is for me. They probably won't make a bit of sense to anyone that hasn't been in that Rp but for those that are, they are fun.

January 24th, 2018 - Expanding this topic slightly. I have recently started completion of various covers for my Rps. Myself (and a few select others) are not employing Planners/Agenda to better organize the Rps we GM. In doing so, we had a need for dividers between each RP. Well me being the over the top anal Gm that I am, I had to create custom ones. (And make them available to my peeps)

Date: Monday May 22nd, 2017




Diamond District: Wayne kept talking, rambling gurl this and oh my god that. He would go on and on about anything that caught his attention. He was like a kid trying to tell a story to their parents, his mouth running a hundred miles an hour and really saying nothing. It didn't help that everything got his attention so he would tangent off on subjects while he worked only to jump back over to what he was originally saying. While he might have been a master when it came to hair it was obvious he was one of those hair dressers that spoke to hear their own voices, not to actually have a conversation with their client.

Every so often Zoie would look over towards Mail and mouth an I'm sorry to her. Thankfully Wayne seemed to work nearly as quickly as he spoke. He trimmed Mali's hair, making sure not to take off too much, giving her a nice gloss and adding some product to her hair before he started to dry the hair itself. It might have been a blessing that while the hair dryer was going it nearly drowned out the sound of his voice. Not that it mattered if anyone missed part of the conversation while he spoke. He wasn't looking for a respond. He seemed to smile and raise a brow enough to let Mali know when he nod if she wanted.

"Oh gurl, now that is nice," he said as he turned off the dryer. The hair was good, it wasn't styled yet but it did look better than when she came in. Split ends were gone, there was a healthy shine to the hair shaft, it was bouncy and light, looking full and thick. "Now to get onto actually styling it but that'll have to wait until the whole rest of the day. Hair and makeup last!"

Police Department: Station 54: Roy looked at Riley and let out a sigh of relief. "Hold on fruitloop," he said before covering the receiver of the phone with the palm of his hand and pulling it away from his ear. "You know him? Good, you talk to him. Maybe you can figure out what he is getting at and then fill me in because right now I am half a stones throw away from calling the asylum to lock him up," he said quickly.

Taking his hand away from the receiver he finally spoke to Felix again. "Okay, hold on, going to transfer you to someone that might actually be able to help you," he said before shoving the phone over to Riley and letting go of it. Holding his hands up in the air as if he was giving up before spinning around in his chair and standing up. "Going to grab us some coffee real fast," he said as he slid the notepad and pen over to her and walking down the hallway to the vending machines.

"Fucking hell... New partner, crazed man. I'm too old for this shit..." he muttered to himself as he reached into his pocket to fetch for some loose change.

Justice Asylum: Risa looked over towards Iris and nodded. "No need to worry, I have been working around and translating for top officials in the U.N. for quite some time. If they don't classify as a threat and psychotic then I don't know who does," she said, trying to lighten the mood just a bit.

Looking in the window she scanned the room as best she could before looking back towards Iris. "The administrator told me that you needed a Russian translator? I will do my best. Been a little since I have had to deal with the harsh tones but I should be able to keep up. It's harder than French or Spanish but far easier than Mandarin and Arabic." Risa didn't doubt her skills as a linguist, it was what she did. Taking a breath she motioned towards the door. "Perhaps you should enter first ad introduce me. Give the girl a minute to know who I am instead of just me going in and suddenly speaking to her."

October 4th, 1924 - 3:15 P.M. Local Time


*Note: Previous case is on day 11 of 14 - Anyone in Vera's office (Lauren, William, Nora, Mahendra) - Make sure to pm for reaction results. Will need to until you get an all clear from me.

Streets Of Cairo: "Oh girl, you better get used to it if you are going to continue to dress like that. Let's them know you aren't a local from a mile away. They eat up anyone they think they can squeeze for a few extra dollars," Rosheen said with a chuckle as she lead Mosi over back to her booth and shooed away one of the patrons who was obviously just hanging around to talk and not eat.

"You wanna talk, you stand," she said and motioned for Mosi to take the seat. The man smirked at her before wandering off, not far, just about a booth down until he found another stool to plop his rear-end on and start up a new conversation to whoever was near. Shaking her head Rosheen turned her attention back to Mosi and nodded a bit.

"Robe is a good idea, might want to make a few. Silk is nice but linen and cotton breath better in this heat. Maybe a veil and hair wrap as well. More features you can cover the easier it will be for you to keep the vendors at bay, at least for a while," Rosheen said with a slight laugh as her compatriot sat down a plate of food in front of Mosi.

"Eat, eat! Sit, enjoy!" he said before going onto the next person.

Rosheen just sighed. "What you get for mentioning you wanted to eat around him," she said in a mock frustrated giggle. "Sounds like you have a heck of a day planned out. If ya need a tour guide tomorrow, my day off. Be nice to get away from the men folk and just chat with someone that speaks the language," she said as she leaned back against the counter top.


Vera, Peter, & George


Location: Egyptian Museum: Vera's Office



Vera was shaking like a leaf as she clung to William. Slowly looking up to him. "I... it was just... I... well... that... over... there," was all she was able to mutter before she started to feel dizzy. Her knees buckling slightly as the image of Georges face came to her mind.

"mmm, I'm sorry..." George said as he watched two people pass out. This was not an uncommon reaction and it made him feel guilty. Perhaps he should have just sent word to Peter instead of coming to meet him in person. Peter on the other hand wasn't having any of it.

"Non-sense my good man. Just initial shock is all, my good looks rendered them with a touch of a vapors," Peter said with a grin which made George smile slightly.

"Yeah... face only a mother could love," George countered which made Peter burst out laughing as Neema glanced at them.

"You tweed, excuse me whilst I go and check on my lady," he said, wanting to make sure that Vera wasn't horizontal as well. George nodded and folded his page cap in half. Stuffing it into his pocket he didn't say anything else, just grabbed a pillow and gently set it under the heads of those that had fainted. Working his way carefully over to the couch he began to pour several glasses of water. Leaving most of them there he picked on up and slowly and carefully walked over towards Lauren and Neema.

"Again... mmm, I'm sorry..." he said as he held out the glass towards Lauren. Neema stayed next to Lauren, not moving just yet to make sure the woman didn't end up running off again but she didn't reach for the glass. Waiting to see what happened.

Peter rounded the corner and spotted Vera in the arms of William. "Vera darling, are you quite alright? It was a bit of a jolt I know but I promise you, he is as good a man as they come. Even if he is an American," he said, giving a bit of a glance towards William as he held his hand out towards Vera.


Aziza Tarek


Location: Her Quarters



"Some wars never end until we let them," Aziza said quietly as she sat down next to him. She wasn't looking at him as she spoke. Simply looking down at their hands as she ran her fingers gently over his skin. She probably would never be able to fully understand what he had gone through during the war but she had dealt and was dealing with her own tragedy. It was something.

"Look at these hands. So rough, strong. They have been through a lot. Yet, you are able to calm me and sooth me with them. It is amazing what we can do when we aren't even trying," she added in a soft voice before her eyes came up slowly and found his. There was a gentle smile on her lips as she gazed into his eyes and gave his hands a reassuring squeeze. Bringing his hand to her mouth she pressed her lips to the back of his hand and kissed it softly.

"Just start where ever you feel. I will listen, as long as you need me to. Rest of my life if it takes it," she said as she lowered his hand and moved closer to him. Resting her head against his shoulder she relaxed a bit and looked across the room. Maybe just being close to him and letting him know she was there would be enough. "You don't have to talk either. We can just sit if you would rather."
