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."

@Mahz Another week has gone by and the issue remains - it seems to pop up the most when I try to access the 3rd page of Cs's for my Walking Dead RP (Basically every time I try to access it) - Link Here

@FantasyChic He should be posting tonight - He was going to last night I think but he and I got caught up finishing some things on the "Presentation" Collab for Soulless and the Russian Circus.


Update


    End Last Round
  • GRZ
    • Moves 1 space, apparently he is as slow as his troglodyte counter part.

    New Round:
    Rotation:
    CMB
    CLA
    Sana
    Thomas
    CMC
    Cyn
    V
    Keystone
    TZ
    Nor
    CLB
    CMA
    Sat
    H.F.
    GRZ

  • CMB:
    • It comes up behind Sana and lands a good bite into her, and then another, when he goes for the 3rd he ends up biting himself. ~Sana is poisoned - is not known to group~
  • CLA:
    • Moves over Nor - misses its first attack, hits the second as it hangs from the ceiling. Does medium damage, Nor resists poison.



Sana
Location: The Tower - 3rd Floor
Interacting With: CMB
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

There was no getting around the attacks that came at her from in front of her, to one side, and behind her. She managed to keep the majority of them from hitting or doing a lot of damage. That was until one hit from behind. She could feel the queezy feeling in the pit of her stomach. She had been poisoned but there was nothing to do for it now. There was no point telling anyone, they were in the middle of a fight, and she couldn't cure herself because she was took busy trying to keep another hit from landing on her. Being boxed in on three sides left one point of exit open.

So she took it. Swinging her bow at the Viper in front of her and carrying the swing to large centipede to her side she did what she did best. She improvised. Her body turning slightly she faced down the large centipede head on but she wasn't even going to try to attack. She was best at a distance with her bow. She needed space. A double back handspring that would have gotten her a perfect score in something known as the Olympics elsewhere she landed sure footed on the bench away from the stairs and the group of deadly shit bothering her. Nocking a bow into place she took aim.


Map/Notes:


Okay, Thomas is up currently. Remember where you are on the map, when calling rolls I need to know where you are, where you are going, and what you are trying, plus any skills. Getting around people needs rolls, so call for it before hand. Try to remember everything, I probably won't give you a reminder this time after this or answer questions at this point. You should have it down by now.




Anisa & Jahosafat

Location: Lady Luck: Table Main Room
Skills: Jack-Of-All(Anisa), Recruiting (Anisa), Carouse (Jahosafat), Social Science -> Psychology (Jahosafat)

Jahosafat grinned broadly as he took a look at his cards. Running his finger along the top of them. There were seven of them at the table now that the Captain and the Pilot had wandered off to the dance floor. Yet there were only six that he had dealed in. He hadn't bothered with sending cards Daphnes way. It was a waste of effort he figured at this point. Looking over at Jackie his grin widened. "I hope you have enough in your possession to cover your losses should you acquire any. Would be just horrible to go into debt in an establishment such as this." He chuckled a bit as he gave a sideways glance over to his more pale other half.

Smirking slightly Anisa listened to what Harper whispered in her ear. It was a good enough answer for now. "Dip you out of an airlock if you ain't careful flyboy," she warned as they danced across the floor. It wasn't anything spectacular but then again one she wasn't trying to impress anyone and two, it had been ages since she actually danced. The last time had been during the war. Her and Jackson, messing around with the rest of the squad. Everyone had danced, just a folk dance but it had been fun and good for morale. Granted, even though so much death happened during the war it was a simpler time. She was simpler back then. She let herself enjoy the small moments then, not anymore.

Taking a drink out of his glass, Jahosafat looked over towards Fitz. He could explain it, go into great detail of what the game was about, how to run it, and more. He had been a very close friend of Foys sister growing up and she was an excellent teacher when it came to cards but it wasn't his specialty. Granted that wasn't what was stopping him. Manners were. Setting his glass down back on the table he motioned towards the female doctor. "That would be a good thing to know before you continue but it would be prudent of me not to allow the esteemed Dr. Pender educate you on the game at play. It was her suggestion after all. Please Dr. Pender, teach the young man how to run with the big boys."

Anisa had to stop dancing as a tall man with dark hair and bright eyes came walking up to them. Several hushed words were exchanged and Anisas expression changed. Her eyes darting over towards Dorothy for a moment, then to Harper, then to the man that was interrupting the dance. There was a nod of the head and she started to lead Harper off the dance floor. They weren't heading back to the table but towards the back rooms as she followed the third party. (Pming details.)


Ludwig Zimmer


Location: Chair, Main Tent, Russian Tent City, Regent Park, London, England, Europe, Northern Hemisphere, Planet Earth
Skills: English, Observation, Mental Stamina, Unacknowledged Soulless/Countries, Ferret Handling


Rolling, tumbling, moving, yes. Yes, it ad been a lot to demonstrate the ability of the magic beans. Such wondrous things, he was very protective of his beans. He couldn't lose his beans. He had lost his marbles. Terrible things to keep track of those marbles were. They were round and they rolled and the earth was curved, not flat. If it was flat his marbles would have stayed in place and not rolled off the ends of the earth. Yet could he earth be round if there was an end for it to roll off of. Oh they were gone, off the end, round flat ends. He would have to go back to see once again. Marbles were funny things, rolling like that. Beans were better, why he used beans instead of marbles. They were cool.

Cool, cold, freezing. Kisses turned warmth to ice. Ice, the water was ice. The platform above would hold someone, good thing that the Russians were more Russian. A German hitting the ice from that height wouldn't have to worry about getting wet, their bones would break. Russians were tougher, at least some were. Was the one that would dive be? Would there be one diving? He guessed it didn't matter. Someone was moving the iced tub out of the way ad replacing it with water. Did they want him to show again how he could kiss the bean? Well if that was the case, then they would have to wait. He was tending to other matters now and beans were valuable things, one just didn't throw them away. Once was enough. Yes, once was enough.

"Oh uh," Ludwig began. He was looking at little Adam intently, his mouth agape as he did. The boy looking back. They did not move, nor respond to either of the Crypts when they were spoken to, if one didn't know better they might believe they were stone as they watched each other. It wasn't until Ludwig blinked that he seemed to come out from whatever thought process he had been in. His face crinkling a bit before looking over at Virginia and grinning awkwardly. "Oh yes, I know Crypt. She's lovely. Reminds me of Circus and Royal and Pale. Flower. No lily among the thorns, thorn among the lily."

Adam tilted his head to the side a bit as Ludwig spoke and then turned his attention towards James. His face lit up slightly. "Brothers? You would be my brother?" Adam said in all seriousness. He had never had a brother, not that he could remember. Tugging on Ludwigs arm he gestured towards James. "I need a knife," he said quickly, not even thinking giving a knife to a child could be a bad thing.

Knives, sharp edges, blood, flying. "We can find one after, right now, the show is starting. Careful, watch. Wonderful I bet. I've seen some before, not all but some. We cannot do but they can. We study, you study," Adam said as he pulled out his journal, one he had used during his performance and handed it with quill to little Adam who quickly opened the book and looked towards the ring.

"She's quiet," Lee Ko said to Bjorn as she looked towards Mary.

"Give her time," he said before looking at the ring. The house lights were starting to dim and things were about to begin. This would be something none of them had seen before.



Millicent Wyndham


Location: Ladies Room, Heaton Hall, Heaton Park, Manchester, England
Skills: Class Knowledge (Peer), Court Etiquette, House


Millicent was not sure she could believe that she was strong. She felt so utterly fragile right then and others were much stronger than she. If they had not been would she have been in the predicament that she was? The young woman felt completely shattered and not in a good way. A break had happened in her mind and it was not that made her feel stronger but weaker. Like glass that had shattered between two other panes. As soon as one was removed she would fall apart completely. All she could do was hope that the outer layers remained and held her at least partially intact for now. Through tonight and tomorrow. Through the rest of her life.

Could she really hold it together like this for years ad decades to come? Four score of men and four score more could never put her back together again, could they? Would they even try? So much was going through her mind until Colette brought up joining the party. It was the last thing she wanted to do but she knew she had to. She had to present herself, be around. Heaven help her if Rutherford began to look for her and she was no where to be found. What would happen to her sister if he couldn't find her? No she had to join the party.

At least with Colette there perhaps she find some strength in the new acquaintance. At least they were both trained. The Soulless attack had not torn her apart. Yes, losing her sister had been hard but what had happened after, what had happened during the travel to Manchester. That was what had shattered her utterly. Taking a deep breath she looked over towards Colette. "Yes, of course. We should make an appearance," she said quietly as she gathered her things and slipped them back into her riticule before heading towards the door. As she reached it she looked back at Colette and forced a bit of a smile. Even though the expression was clearly a facade. Her words rag through truthfully. "Thank you."

  • TZ
    • The Troglodyte Zombie shuffles forward only one square. It is obviously moving a lot slower than the people in your group. Half speed. Looks like you have bought sometime with this one.
  • CMB:
    • It moves forward and quickly, managing to take a bite on Nor. Nor is able to resist the poison. Minor damage.
  • CLB
    • Moves really damn fast, moving twice the speed of you all. It gets over to Sana and takes a bite but misses. That does not make it happy. It takes another and lands the bite. Medium damage but she resists the poison.

October 4th, 1924 - 6:25 Local Time



Museum: Neema took a step back and then another before making her way down the isle some just to get away from the blood that was pooling out from under the crate. "He was searching for a slip of paper in his pocket and suddenly the crate fell off the top shelf and crashed in onto him. Was the most peculiar thing," Neema said s she watched the crimson flowing on the ground. As Mahendra said he was dead it took a lot in her to say the Egyptian version of no shit Sherlock.

Looking over at Lauren she nodded. "Yes, I am fine. Well as fine as one can be right now. Let us go upstairs back to Lady Munns office. I believe we should leave the archieves for the night. Mahendra will need to inform the Curator and the constable of the incident," Neema said as she stood there. Glancing up her eyes narrowed slightly, walking over to the rack she gave it a rather firm hip bump. The shelving didn't wobble a bit. She took note of it before looking over at Josephine. "Oh dear, yes, let's get her up stairs. I have some spirit in my bag we can add to some tea. It will calm the nerves."

Ahkmed laughed a bit. "Very well Mosi, take my arm then? Or are you to young for that?" he teased as he offered his arm. "We have some time before we..." he said before being cut off as a black roped figure bumped into him and ran passed him. "Hey!" he yelled before noting the person was running away from the museum. The museum was closed, no one but staff should have been inside. That person wasn't the right height or weight to be anyone that would have been inside. The figure jumped on a motor cycle and sped off down the street and was lost in the crowds of traffic.

"Come with me, stay close," he told Mosi before darting back into the museum. Something was wrong.

Vera


Location: Governorate (E/F 10) - Front Door
Skills: Focus, Mental Stamina


Vera nodded slightly as she took a deep breath. She had done what they had set out to do. They now had the permit they needed for the expedition. That meant as soon as the Lord Major got everything together they could depart. This was what she had hoped would be the most difficult part of the day. Little did she know just what was going down at the museum. Yet her mind was not on the museum or what could or could not be happening right then. It was on Peter as Nora mentioned him. She suddenly felt far worse than she had when facing the man down for the permit.

"Yes, it has been a rather interesting day has it not. Let us be on our way. Our gentlemen should be waiting on us outside," she said trying to focus more on George in her mind than on Peter. Not having to worry about Peter helped. Focusing on George seemed to calm her as she gathered her wits about her and began to head out of the building. She felt her nerves creeping up again when they reached the door. Hopefully Peter would lead Nora once again, she for some reason did not want to have to face Peter one on one right then. It sent a knot into the pit of her stomach. Odd as it was, thinking of George did not. She figured it was simply because George was not the one courting her. Not that she should mind Peters courtship but something was off.

Looking around as they stepped outside Vera quirked a brow. Neither of the men were anywhere to be seen. Stepping off and to the side she kept looking around. "I say, I thought they would have returned by now. Should we wait or should we start back?" she asked Nora as she made her to tuck the permit away for safe keeping. Peter not being there was odd, the man was never late. He was British after all.


Evelina Lucas


Location: Ville au Camp - Kitchen House
Skills: Administration, Diplomacy, Memory Training, History


Setting her pipe down on the counter near the sink Evelina turned around as the group started to enter the Kitchen House. Pulling out pocket watch she look a look at it. "Right on time," she said in passing as she returned it to its home. "Punctuality. That is something that The Watch will be content to see I suspect. He does prefer that everything runs on time. I cannot say I blame him. Too much occurs in this world that could have easily been prevented if people had been on time or taken notice to the time that had passed," she added as she undid the knot of the apron she was wearing. On the table was a decent enough spread. Sandwich makings. Various meats, cheeses, vegetables, breads, and condiments. Plates, napkins, cups, and pitches of various simple drinks were there as well. A few sides, nothing big but all lunch appropriate.

"Please, help yourself. Other than reproductive functions you still need to eat and other such unmentionables," she said in passing as she hung the apron up. "Eat and I will continue as you do. I doubt you wish to wait until everyone has finished consuming." Turning she eyed Gilbert as she picked up her pipe. "Μπορείτε να περιμένετε. Έχετε ήδη φάει και το τελευταίο πράγμα που χρειάζομαι είναι να πάρετε όλο το φαγητό σας. Σφίξτε λοιπόν τον ιμάντα στον αεραγωγό σας μέχρι αργότερα." The Lady half smirked as she spoke and then turned her attention back to her newest additions.

"Now to continue. I can only assume that since I mentioned that you would have abilities you are wondering just what you would use those for. Simplest explanation is protection. Now while you are in the confines of the groups, time holds still. This day will reset as it were and begin again. It is ever here until The Watch decides differently. It helps keep things simple for us. We know who will visit each day because it is the same as the day before. Obviously other than you. New Paradoxes seem to have an unique ability to fall into the time loop and continue forward like us Emendators do. Call it a side effect of death. Outside of the ground though there are many dangers."

Taking a seat she seemed to darken as she continued, her face going from the brightness it had held since their arrival. This was the first time she spoke and it sounded dire. "There are being other than us in this world. Other than what you have known. Beings we ourselves, even after thousands of years do not know much of. In fact we do not even know what they look like for they are invisible. They are known as the Destruere. One could, but he is gone..." Her voice trailed off as she felt a knot in her throat. It was never easy speaking about Dreme. Taking a breath she continued.

"But first... Let me give you a bit of a history lesson. You see, when we came into consciousness we felt a draw to each other. You will start to feel this draw as well. To each other. A family tie if you would that will help bring you back here if you are ever lost. And a draw to correct things. You see there are many time lines in this world. In fact from you newest arrivals we have three represented. There is the worlds main time line, where things continue as long as things are fixed. There are others out there that are shoot off from the original where something got messed up along the way. While it was corrected the paths can never cross again. They just don't. This is why some of you have memories of other lives even if you died in one time line. Those of you not from the main timeline have alternates in the main of a completely different life, perhaps even in a different time period."

Picking up a tea pot she poured herself a cup of earl gray as she continued. They wanted answered, they were getting them. In bulk right now. "Now, why do things get messed up? The Destruere. Destruere are cruel, they are evil, and they are bent on destruction on any and all levels. What some belief structures might call demons or even the devil himself. Like little gremlins the span the globe, wreaking havoc where they can and even killing as they see fit. Why, no one knows. Perhaps their draw to cause such chaos is as ingrained in them as the purpose is in myself and the other Emendators is to correct their havoc. Either way, if we knew perhaps we could stop them once and for all. As for now, we can only try to pursue, capture, contain, and end them as we must."

Taking a sip of her tea she wet her throat and continued. "You can help us with that. Now, I will not lie. It will not be easy and many a Paradox have died on this path. We have lost an Emendator as well. You do not have to do this but if you chose not to help in the fight you do need to remain here on the grounds. For your safety and the safety of the time lines. Yet if you do chose to train and learn of your abilities to help us, I can say this. You will be whisked to time lines you never dreamed of, periods of time you have only read about, and even parts of space far in the future that you can only imagine when you make a wish on a star."

She paused again for a moment before continuing once again. "Some of you will leave, even if you don't die or you don't chose to. Something, we do not know what, seems to know when a Paradox has completed their life and they just are removed form the table. We do not know where you go, it seems to be a peace that comes over a Paradox in a moment. Perhaps like a ghost finally finding peace and a haunting stops. Either way. There is it. I will say while you are here, whether you chose to help or not you will feel a desire to, coming here seems to ingrain one with a purpose. I do not question the purpose, somethings in life we just must do because we must do them."

"Like now...." Evelina added as she pulled out a hand full of dice from her pocket. Not one, not two, this was large scale. As many as she could hold in her pale fingers. She glanced towards Gilbert and gave him a knowing look. This happened from time to time. An event so large it caused devastation on more than just a single person level. It had happened the day that Alicia had died, it had happened the moment James had died, now it was happening again. Turning her hand she let the dice fall and clink onto the table. They hit and spun, she didn't even bother to look at them, her eyes staying locked on Gilberts as they came to a stop. She didn't have to see to know what just happened, neither did he. One something this large, it just became part of the historical download they seemed to have with the world. This was a large scale death.

Slowly her eyes turned towards Andromeda. She said nothing. Just sat there for a moment before looking at the dice and gathering them back up. "Such a pity," she said quietly as she placed the dice back into her pocket and rose from her place. "That is all you need to know now. I will answer 1 question from each of you. I will take no questions for at least an hour for I do not want you to waste them on infantile curiosity. Something to remember. I may not answer your question, no matter what it is. I owe you nothing, neither does any other Emendator or Paradox. So if you feel that way, perhaps it is better you depart quickly. There is no such thing as entitlement or privileges here."

With that Evelina turned her attention away from her words and changed subjects a hair. "Those from the state of Georgia during the Undead plague, do go outside. Alicia should be waiting for you. Andromeda, if you would, do please come with me. The rest of you are with Gilbert. We are dividing up now for more extended tours of the grounds. Finish up your meal or bring it with you. Andromeda, I will be on the back steps waiting for when you are ready. Take you time, we have all the time in the world." Turning she walked towards the back door of the kitchen house before pausing and stopping at the doorway. Resting her hand on the frame she glance back at the new group. This was going to be interesting. Turning she continued on her way and stepped out onto the back steps to wait.





Alicia Gonzalez


Location: Ville au Camp - Pedestrian Corridor -> Front Porch Kitchen House
Skills: Empathy


They may have had all the time in the world but Alicia knew that certain things had to happen at certain times. At least that is how it had been explained to her. She could debate either for or against that statement but she didn't bother. At least not anymore. She had been a lot more pushy when she first arrived. Now she picked her battles. It kept her from stalking around the grounds with the Gonzalez grimace permanently affixed to her features. Not that it was a bad look but it tended to make people a bit hostile towards her. She couldn't blame them, her father had perfected the look and she was sure that he had scared at least one person to death using it in his life.

Looking down at the time she got the look for a minute before she took off running. She was going to be late. Not that it really mattered to her since she couldn't die of traditional means but she could still suffer from a lecture from Evelina or Gio on the importance of being punctual. That was something she didn't want to deal with right then. It was better to be on time than to have more time wasted being told how important time was. Alicia had just reached the bottom step of the kitchen house when the wind picked up. That made her freeze in her tracks. There was not winds this heavy this time of the day. No, this day had a nice breeze, it didn't have real wind. This was high speed wind and the temperature dropped a good twenty degrees suddenly.

Glancing up at the sky it was turning dark, like a storm was rolling in and there was a crackle in the air. Alicia could feel the hair on the back of her neck rising from the static electricity, it was something everyone on the grounds would feel. Something else, that everyone would hear, was the sudden crackle of lightning in the air and a bolt hitting only about thirty feet from the back of the kitchen house. "WHAT THE FUCK!" Alicia yelled.

Taking a step off the back porch Evelina looked back inside. "Andromeda dear, do lock down your emotions before you cause a tornado to come through the kitchen. I don't want dinner ruined," she said in a calm voice before taking a puff from her pipe. It seemed that someone had presented with their first ability.



Date: Monday May 22nd, 2017




A limo in Justice: "No perfect place if they want to keep things locked down," Zoie said as she leaned back in her seat. This was going to put a kink into the plan. Zoie knew the Justice Courthouse well. She knew the ins and out of it, how to get in and out unseen and unheard. This place, that was something else.

"I've been here before but shit," Zoie added as she ran her finger back and forth under her chin. She had been, but only a handful of times. She wasn't a major player in Juno, she was an Aqueduct. This complex was newer, the security was higher, a lot higher. This was where Elizabeth Queensguard held most of her meetings in Justice.

"Means I have to get in," Relic said as he pushed up his glassed. Zoie shot him a look, she knew he was right but she didn't like it. Her brother was on their radar. On Junos that was. She had to keep him out of sight.

"Yeah... okay, three of us out at the stairs. Stay behind me and Mali, hopefully they will be too busy looking at me to take note of you." Zoie doubted it but it was all they had at the moment. Marc pulled up to the gate and handed over the invitation to the gate guard. Getting in should be easy, getting out was a whole different story.

Up at the front, limos were pulling up and people were getting out. It was an A list of Junos most influential. Now if someone bombed the place right now a lot of innocents might be taken out but Juno would have been crippled. Too bad the blood thirty former federale was in Mexico right then.

A Taxi in Mexico: Natasha looked over at Cecily and perked a brow. "You are really into this whole comic book stuff aren't you?" she asked. It really wasn't much of a question, it was pretty obvious that she was but hey, keep the conversation moving.

Glancing down at her phone she had a message and read over it before looking back at Cecily. "Well shit, seems we are missing stuff back in Justice," she said as she opened a browser on her phone and showed the youtube footage of a certain blond headed young man get taken out by a fire hydrant. "That is going to be a bitch to sew back up."

Shaking her head some she looked out the window of the taxi as it pulled up to the front of the air port and passed the main gates. It stopped in front of the car rentals. "Lets get our shit and get a car."

A Stairwell in an Asylum: "Moo?" Risa said to herself. That was something she hadn't expected. This was going to be a lot more of a problem than she thought. Yet they were headed to the door and Lucas was there starting to fall in behind them. The couple exchanged looks and Risa just went with it. There was nothing else she could do.

Then the alarms went off. "Shit, plan B.... Go Bahzooli and get out!" she yelled at Jaina as security came out from behind the monitor counter. Several armed guards coming right for the woman who was mooing. Risa pulling a dagger out from her pants line as Lucas drew his gun. He hadn't needed to go through a metal detector.

Risa tossed her bag at one of the guards as she planted a foot in a chair and kicked it forward at another. This was going to get complicated fast. Right then her only goal was to get them out the front door before the gate dropped. Once that happened they would have to find another point of exit. Screw that, she could see the street from here.

A Safehouse in the Deadlight District: Roy looked over at the two women, they seemed to be fine so he grabbed the hottest ones as well. Shit, if they could handle it, he could. That was his big mistake because whatever fortitude they had in their tongues, Roy did NOT. "BLOODY GREEN HOBGOBLIN PISS!" he yelled after he took a bite and chewed a few times. His face was turning red, it was obvious he was trying not to spit it out. Eyes watering ,nose running. Oh this was too much.

Reaching across the table he grabbed one of the canned sodas he had bought with the food. Popping the top he downed it but the carbonation and sugar only made a bad situation worse. He tried not to spit it out. Ended up choking on it instead as he turned his head. Bubbles and hot sauce coming out of his nose. That message on his phone would have to wait because right then he felt like was going to die as his eyes bulged.


World Narrative


And we continue moving forward. The maps have been updated.

Things to remember and new rules in play:
  • Get skill checks any time you are wanting to perform an action
  • When you request rolls they must be done all at once. You cannot request rolls piece meal.
  • Make sure when you request rolls to be specific. I need character, actions attempting, direction they are moving, where they are trying to get in that roll. Street names and landmarks need to be used.
  • Notify who is up next in the DM on discord for your case once you post here and move your post to SI
  • From now one if someone in your case does not request a roll/respond to their turn within 24 hours of your notifying them it is their turn - notify me so I can make a roll for ~LLA has PMS~ (If you have something come up, notify your case partners immediately. Being in chat, online, will denote you had 2 seconds to say ~shit, busy, tomorrow~ or something to that extent.)
  • Also from now on, you are required in case to have a minimal of 2 rotations though all case people per 5 days of granted counters. So if there are 2 of you and it is a six to ten day counter, each character will need a min of 4 ~times at bat~ (which would be a min of 8 paragraphs total between the two of you) - Three of you, five day counter: 2 times at bat per character, 6 paragraph min total for everyone.
  • Consider all the above new rules for cases and that they will be added as soon as kinks are worked out across the board. Still working out kinks for cases, so be patient and work together.


Groups 1-3: Okay, keep moving. You know the goal - survive, get to bugout location, less than 2 hours of daylight left. Stay on point, keep moving. Remember those that were in Newnan this morning had a hell of a time. You can easily still see the smoke rising and it is still black: which means things are still burning. Keep this in mind when you are posting and your characters mental status. It has only been a couple of hours since you all fled, some less than that.

Eden: You know your goal. Roughly 5 minutes passed last round, t-minus 15 until Lola goes Mad Max. Radio silence currently. Eden map is updated, please use the numbers to help in your roll requests and posts to denote destination/location. (Should make things easier for us to keep up with)


Group 1:
Members: Niesha, Ash, Riley
Length: 10 days

Group 2:
Members: Tiffany, Jack
Length: 10 days

Group 3:
Members: Ray, Amelia, Sam
Length: 10 days

Eden:
Members: Thana, Thalia, Alex, Gavin, Beatrice, Lola
Length: Resting your counters currently, you are on day 1 of 7 at time of this post. (If you wish to get more done in your post than a single roll, get your roll, type it up, pm it to me, then request again. You can do this as many times as you can fit in your counter. Sigil/ONL - if you two want to stay close to each other, might want to collab it.)




Thana Martin


Location: Outside Eden, Golf Course, Treeline -> 17 -> 10
Skills: Survival


Thana came to the edge of the brush and trees, looking around slowly and paying attention to the tree line across the way some what. She could hear Alexander singing behind her. Half of her wanted to go put a bullet in his head to keep him from drawing more attention to them, half of her wanted to let him keep singing. Wasn't her problem if he got shot and took the attention away from her. Yet she did neither. The man was a war vet, he had to know how to handle himself. Nam wasn't exactly a walk in the park for the grunts. He survived, so he had to be doing something right. So for now, she would just keep moving forward.

Thing was, this next part was not exactly something she wanted attention being brought to. She was about to try cross a massive open spanse on the golf course. She could have hugged the tree line all the way around but they were on a time schedule and it would be getting dark soon. Shit needed to get done. Sure, attacking them at night could make getting close easier but as much as it would have put Eden at a disadvantage, it would have even more for them once they got into the main building. Eden knew its way around in there, they didn't. They would be going blind. What she would have given to have that fucking block of C4 right now but it was in Newnan... What was left of Newnan.

Taking a deep breath, Thana took another look left, and then right, and then left again. Just like if she had been crossing the street before she made a mad dash towards the midway treeline passed the sand traps. Keeping low and one of her pistols in hand. There was no turning back now, running out onto the course itself was crossing the point of no return. She made it to 17 and ducked beneath the low lying branches. A quick look and she looked back to where she had just come from, snapping out her knife she let it catch the sun light and flash back to where she had just come from. Hopefully they would know that meant all clear to where she was.

Not waiting, she turned and darted to the other side of the small wooded patch. Okay, now to the next part. There were several paths she could take from here but she opted to head for 10. Letting out a short breath she darted again, yet in her path was a walker. Instead of killing it and leaving a dead corpse to be found she ran close enough to it to get its attention and then darted towards 10 once again. The walker starter following her as she wanted. If she could she would get it into the tree line and then take it out. Either way it was better to have it following her than left as proof someone was there. Hopefully Alex and Thalia would take another route to get to the other side. She didn't need it distracted and going back.



Gavin And Lola


Location: Just outside Eden
Skills: Tank Operations (Lola), Land Navigation (Lola), People Reading (Gavin), Sniper Rifle(Gavin)


Lola heard what Alexander said through the radio and smirked. "Safe? Shit don't know the meaning of the word," she laughed a bit. Thing was, the only safe Lola knew were for more adult activities. As far as fighting, war, blowing shit up, safe didn't come into the game. For her it just make her second guess things and that wasn't what she was about. Lola did what she wanted, when she wanted, didn't think twice. Life happened, it was too short to get held up on what ifs. Any type. So she just smirked a bit as she started to get what little ammo she had for her tank together.

Gavin was around the same thinking as Lola right then. This wasn't about staying safe, this was about keeping people safe. If that mean his ass had to end up in a scrap with a bulldog for the last bone, then ol' Uga was jut going to have to deal with his teeth getting knocked in. Sound carried out of the top of the tank easy enough, metal made for acoustics. The fact that they were going radio silent didn't sit well with Gavin. He knew why they had to, they didn't have ear coms or throat speakers. Walkies weren't exactly quiet. Still didn't like it. He wanted to hear if shit was going down with Thana.

"Okay crash course in blowing shit up, Lola style," the Kiwi said as she rubbed her hands together. "You take this," she said as she picked up one of the five shells she had. "Shove it in here, pointy end first." Quickly she shoved it in and closed the hatch, explaining as she went. "Take aim here, adjust here. This is up, this is down, this is left, this is right. This is boom fuck um button," she said with a cool smirk before moving out of the way. "That's is, so be ready," Lola said before slipping out of the chair and back down to driver seat.

Gavin looked through his scope and scanned the area. "We got three at the bridge gate, two on top, one patrolling. No other movement detected yet," he said as he called down to the girls. They didn't seem to be taking notice of anything yet but they all were laying low and if shit didn't seem to be stirring at the gate Gavin could only assume that no one had yet taken notice of Thana and the other two. He hoped it would stay that way. The tank was to make the first move on the big billboard of "Hey fuckers, we're here" moment. Granted if the others were directed, he was sure that the tank could redirect attention elsewhere. A tank vs 3 on foot, it was an easy call.
