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."

@ONL Yeah, you can do it tomorrow. Mr. Fainty is done, so you are clear there. This will just be adding in Haakon, so you are all good. Thankies hun!
@ONL When you get a chance, can you edit your last post to include Haakon? (Sigil will need you to post most likely before he can again.)
@Morose @Rivaan @Sigil @FantasyChic @Caits @Nallore @ONL

Okay, to answer a few questions...

1) You have a choice. You can enter the new relation sheet in under your current ones OR you can delete them. It depends on you. I recommend just adding them below the others so you have reference for later or for future RPs.

2) Poke me. Always poke me to before you do any edits on the Cs's tab. (Hell anywhere. lol)

3) Okay, also, real fast. Something I forgot earlier. With Newnan "falling", I need the following characters to "strip" their possessions... Ash, Meg, Riley, Jack, Niesha, Ray, Tiffany, Amelia and Ravi. They are basically null and void now because of the big boom. You have the clothes on your back. You can keep that on your list.

4) Everyone in that list above will have a single knife. Leads would have had 1 small pistol on them, full clip, and a spare clip. Those at the funeral home will have what they left the armory with before they went on the run. That can be on your possession list. Ash will have the shit he took with him into the Hordebuster.

5) Those of you that can retrieve "bug out" bags, you will be able to add in those possessions as you grab a bag. (Tag me here to get the clear for the edit WHEN you grab the bag in an IC post)
@Nallore You are clear to post currently
@Morose yuppers

Svetlana Volkov (Former Scam Artist)

Now I know a lot of people lost characters and such. Don't worry. You can bring new characters in but just not yet. I have a lot to go to get everything in order here. (Plus have Paradox going up soon.)

Also, I know the descripts can be confusing of what happened here, so I have some visuals for you.... This is Newnan currently....


See all that yellow? Yeah, that is where there are open holes in the ground. The walls? Only debris is left of them and it falls into the buildings lining the area near where they fell. The Distillery is burning like mad. Other buildings are burning. The place is an utter shit show. So, what do you do? GET THE FUCK OUT!!!!

The following is the current break down of "groups" - and what is available to them in certain areas. Basically what they can get their hands on.

The Meeting...
Gavin, Lola, Thalia, Alexander, Beatrice, Thana - you are all together, you have the truck and the tank. You can move south. What you have is what was on you and what is in your respective vehicles. You cannot get back to Newnan from where you are without making some major detours with all the breaks in the ground throughout the area of Newnan. It is easier to get to Peachtree City from where you are than Newnan.

Ash - you are alone with your Hordebuster. You can get back to Newnan but it is not going to be the route you came in on. Follow the way Lola's tank came to the meeting. You can get to the northern end of the Franklin Addition.

Newnan...

Meg, Amelia, Ray - You were in the graveyard. You can't get back into Newnan proper from what your characters can tell. But you can go south east to get out of Newnan. Thankfully for you there are a few buildings that while still standing are damaged. Newnan was good on prepping. You three will be able to locate half a dozen bug out bags if you scavenge the place before climbing over the rubble of the walls and heading South West.

Tiffany, Jack - You are both outside and close to each other. Bad news is that you are separated by a long sunken in piece of ground that has split the town. More bad news is that you can't get around it to get to the other. Good news, there is a section between you two that is only about ten feet wide. You could jump it! QUestion is, who jumps and who holds tight. Tiffany's side is where the Distillery just went up and is burning and that is spreading, but it is also where Jack's house is. (Though, neither of them know it yet, it has been completely swallowed up.) - If Tiffany jumps to Jack, they can get out if they move fast and towards the west out of town and then north. There are bug out bags in the Medical Garden, several. The glass is blown out fro the shaking, so no need for a key now.

The Funeral Home...
Riley is upstairs and just watched her sister "kinda" commit suicide. Good news! She can take her sisters shit and no one can tell her no, lol. Downstairs Niesha and Ravi can get out and make their way back to the main floor. Riley can get downstairs to the main as well. When you step outside you will see the shit show - you can climb over the walls if you want and make your way to one of the standing buildings in Franklin. The Franklin Armory/mini medical is trashed, can't get in or out. There are bug out bags in the houses, so you can gather some there.

As far as vehicles go - everyone is shit out of luck if they aren't with the group that was meeting down by the water treatment plant. Even if they do start you can't get them over the rubble.

Now, onto what is in your bug out bags? Here you go...
1 Water bottle with built in filter - or 1 water bottle and 1 bottle of water purification tablets
1 change of clothing - male or female - sweat pants, sweat shirt, t-shirt, boxers. Average size
1 Gun with full clip - small hand gun
1 knife - various, could be pocket, army issue, butterfly
1 weeks worth of MRE's
1 first aide kit - general, nothing special
1 book of matches or 1 lighter
1 pencil or 1 pen
1 small pocket sized note book
1 book - usually trashy romance novel - paper back
1 roll of toilet paper
1 sleeping bag
1 compass
Bug out plan

Now what is this bug out plan? Well Newnan was always prepared. Like the boy scouts. It is a map of Georgia, laminated. Newnan is marked. There are other places marked as well. One is the storage shed by the water treatment facility. Another is the hanger at the air port where LeAnn kept her plane! Those two are the main but there is also a defacto one south towards Macon. Zebulon, Ga. That was the goal location if all fuckery broke loose in Newnan.

Also, we have new relation sheets and a new original OOC post! I need those relations done and put up under your Cs in teh CS tab! Those of you changing out your character images, do that as well. You will not be able to update after the 10th of December, if your relations are not up by then, it's a kickaroo! So don't procrastinate! As far as the relations go - you only have to do them for characters you know and that you know are alive - that your character knows is alive! So that pretty much keeps you to your personal group. Those at the meeting - this is only for characters you have known more than the five minutes when everyone showed up!

Another thing - the rules were updated with the new OOC post, make sure to read through it! A lot has changed! This is the new set of rules in play and such! (These are getting worked into every one of my rp's, so be warned! It really isn't anything you don't already know but it is just out there in official form now.)

Okay peeps - any questions ask. Counters are reset as of the last IC post. 7 days. Cover the shit that just went down in your next post and a little bit of "What the fuck are we doing now?" - Next update will come on December 10th! So have your posts in before then please!

Sum Up - Read the original OOC post, get your relations updated with the new code, change out images if you need to, get your next post in before the 10th! (And as always, like this post so I know you have read it!) - Any questions ask!
@Morose @Rivaan @Sigil @FantasyChic @Caits @Nallore @ONL

Alright people, Lady Luck will be posting the update in the IC shortly! I will post an ooc update a little later once I see that everyone has logged into the forum and had a chance to actually read it. Until then, keep all comments about it out of the OOC, spoilers and all that. If you wish to talk, do it in The Walking Dead Chat room - not the tavern! That way people have a chance to read and not have everything spoiled. Please tick off a Like, Laugh, Thank You on this post once you read the IC post!! (That way I know when it is safe to update the OOC!)

March 23rd, 1823



The taller of the two men that were trying to gain entry to the estate let out a sigh of relief as Virginia came up to the door. They had been given a description of the lady before they had left and he seriously doubted anyone else could have fit it. She nearly looked like a walking Soulless with how pale she was.

"Ahh! Lady Crypt! Dah, ve have urgent message for you," he said as he handed over the sealed letter.

The shorter of the two nodded in agreement. "Dah, dah. Ve come from great circus! The Great Bahzooli told us to make sure to deliver vith much haste," the other said. "Ve stay for nov? You need send message back? Hurry if do, ve must return. Grand Duchess need us. Know Grand Duchess?"

Groaning the taller one looked at his compatriot. "Перестаньте разговаривать!"

"Зачем?"

The taller one planted his face into the palm dragging it downward with a rather over the top groan. It was more than evident that whoever these people were, they had to be associated with Vlad. No movement they made didn't scream put the spotlight on me.

"Please excuse him, he is learning," the taller one said which only made the shorter one roll his eyes. "But dah, he is right. Ve stay for letter? You vish to ansver?"


Elizaveta Romanova


Location: Russian Imperial Tent City: Her Tent


Adam looked confused but that didn't stop him from changing the subject. Slipping off the bed he moved slowly over towards Vlad and tugged on his pant leg gently. He looked up at the flamboyant Russian and bit on his bottom lip slightly. "Sir, is there food?" he asked before motioning that he wanted to whisper something in the man's ear. "Want to get some food for the princess. She needs to eat, she has thin s I am. Princesses shouldn't be so thin, should look healthy," he whispered as he tried not to draw attention to himself. Granted if he didn't want to draw attention to himself it would have probably been better to ask Mary instead of the man that was constantly acting as if he was in front of a crowd of thousands he needed to entertain.

Elizaveta's attention however had not been taken away from Constantin. "Ha, so veak. Visions did alvays take their toll on you. Your feet may be tough but your mind needs more time in books. Steel trap it is not," Veta teased. It may have sounded cruel to say something like that to one who had just been so obviously caught off guard by the skill, especially from someone who had gone through the very same the night before but that was just how it was. Elizaveta and Constantin were always going at each other like this. Tit for tat as it were. It was how they functioned. Elizaveta cared deeply for the man, they had nearly grown up together. He'd pull at her curls, she kick him in the shin, then they would laugh and eat a meal together. It was just how they worked.

When Mary spoke up though was when Veta's attention turned. Thinking on it before her lips parted to speak. "Dat girl last night. Vhat vas her name? Miss Vyndham? Vas she not engaged last night? I sav in the soldiers eyes her, so much pain. Could be about her? Dah?" she asked Mary. Elizaveta did not know the people of London well enough to be able to put pieces together fully but the engagement announcement had been a very large part of the evening before the Soulless attacked.
