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."

Thana glanced around, things seemed to be going well but she wasn't sure how long that was going to hold up. This was becoming way to easy to infiltrate this place. She had already made it to the wall and there wasn't a single sentry posted on it at the waters edge. That didn't seem right, not from what she had heard about this place. Granted she had heard more about the people than the place itself. Maybe they weren't very concerned with people trying to actually get in. They seemed to have a big enough reputation in the area that even Newnan hadn't tried to take them down yet.

Whatever the reason they didn't have sentry's on wall near the waters edge they did have them on the bridge. And those had taken notice something going. "Shittin' biscuits..." Gavin said under his breath as he took notice under his breath and pushed his curls out of his face. Cowboy rushed forward and dropped to the ground, taking aim and keeping an eye out on the person. They were sticking to the waters edge. He needed a clear shot and one where those still on the bridge wall wouldn't notice if he dropped. He just prayed he could get if off before they got to Thana.

Lola looked down at her watch and smirked. "Oh fucking Aces! It's time!" she cackled, giddy as a school girl. Throwing the tank into gear she swiveled it to one side and pulled it out from behind the line of trees where it had been sitting. The tank rolled onto the street and started down it. "Take aim ton the gate girl! Wait for it!" she called out.

Buzz was happening now. Whatever surprise they were going for had gotten attention. It was kind of hard to miss a tank on the road coming right at them. "Father! We have a tank!" one sent in on the radio as the others took aim at it. (Like that was going to help them, it was a fucking tank...)

Thana scrambled up the wall and onto the top of it before dropping to the other side. She was right at the waters edge and flashed a signal across the water. Then it happened, she didn't hear them but she felt them. The barrel of a gun was pressed to the side of her head. "Well.. well.. holy shit.. Zoie?!!" the man said and Thana took a breath. "Yeah, whos the hells else I bes?" she said, trying to put in the same drawl her sister had once prided herself in.

"Aww hell..." Gavin said as he spotted Thana on the edge of the water with a gun to her head. She hadn't been killed yet. They seemed to be talking as Thana raised her arms slowly. There was a slight motion of her fingers towards the man and a nod of her head. He hoped she was telling him what he thought she was. Taking a deep breath, he released it slowly and squeezed the trigger. The shot fired off and the bullet went tearing through the air.

"Stop right there!" one of the men called out on the wall. Yeah, like that was fucking happening. Lola just laughed, she couldn't hear them inside her tank. It was loud. Even if she could, like she would have. Okay, she might have, to screw with them, but as crazy as the Kiwi was, she was a soldier. They had a plan, she was going to follow it. Anyways that plan mean blowing shit up.

"Get ready to cream yourself! Fire!" she yelled out towards Beatrice.

Thana blinked as her face was splattered with blood and brains. The mans head exploding right next to her and his body dropping like a ton of bricks. Wiping some of it away with the back of her sleeve she gave a wave towards Gavin before she searched the man. A pistol, a couple of clips, knife, set of keys, walkie talkie. Taking the man for what he had she loaded up and pushed on. Making her way to the edge of the woods near the road. She could hear them on the walkie she took. Apparently they knew about the tank now.

Museum: "No, he's too anal for that," Neema said quietly as she made sure her khopesh was clear of the folds of her skirt. She had known the man since they were about the age of the very woman she was speaking too, perhaps even younger. He didn't leave doors open, hell he didn't like leaving a cabinet open when he was in it.

Looking over at Mosi Akhmed nodded before going over to the curator and letting him know what was going on. "Someone, came bursting out of the museum after the doors were locked and we did our final sweep. Only guests should be those that came in to help Lady Munn." He went on to explain a bit more and the curator quirked a brow.

Neema took a step back. "Of course, gentlemen first," she said and gestured towards the door. She wasn't going to deny the major his request as it were. She doubted there was anything in there at this point.

"I see, well let us go and do the rounds," the curator said as he looked between the two of them. "I will check the administration area, you check the main exhibits to start. We will meet at the archives," the Curator stated before heading back towards his office. Akhmed nodded and motioned for Mosi to follow him.


Vera


Location: Heading West Towards The Egyptian Museum
Skills: N/A


"It must be. There has to be a logical explanation for all of this. A science perhaps that is yet to be explored. The Egyptians were dealing with mathematics, sciences, and more that we have only started to understand as a species once again." Vera kept walking as she spoke. It was good that the people around her were more observant to what was going on around them because Vera wasn't paying any attention. She was lost in the conversation and the ideas going through her head. It hadn't even crossed her mind that they sill hadn't seen any sign of Peter or George since they were dropped off at the Permit office nearly an our ago.

"It must be something. I refuse to believe there is any hokum involved. Spirits, gods, psshaw. These are just words for the uneducated to stamp on things they either cannot explain or refuse to accept a reasonable answer for. It was not that long ago that people believed the world was flat and the Earth was the center of the universe." So many in the past had chalked up various things to the gods or magic or anything else just because they couldn't explain it for themselves. Vera refused to believe in anything she could not see or touch or explain reasonably using science.

Crossing the street, it was a miracle that she had not been hit by something or run into someone at this point. She would trip every so often but the woman was rather good at catching herself. She wasn't as clumsy as she was when she was around Mr. Drake that was for sure but it was obvious by the scuffed up condition of her shoes that stumbling was a common thing for the woman.

Queensguard Research: Coming up to the door, Zoie looked over her shoulder towards her brother and then back forward. This could get interesting. Pulling out from her clutch she handed over her invitation. There was a basic guest list but it seemed that they were left open to bring who they wanted as a date or an entourage - which several did. Zoie just bringing two actually was a small number. She smiled and waltzed in, waving slightly towards Doctor Amy Chang who was standing with McCormick.

Yet as Keystones team started checking out the list of the Juno Derby team, it got interesting. Venus was there, Ceres, Diana. The one known as Minerva came in with a Camera crew and Amy Adams of Channel Six news. As was Terra. Only ones missing where Vest, Gaia, and Proserpine. Two were known dead, one was missing after kidnapping Cynthia was the Asylum the day before.

Other were showing up as well. Robert Rose, an Oil Mogul out of Texas. Norman Wentworth, owner of Wentworth Security, tech specialists and rivals of MSS: Alicia was getting MSS up to speed and catching up with Wentworth before she died. Her being gone has tossed a major wrench into the works. Zoie Crawford was there of course, her records coming up; several charges for solicitation, but nothing that stuck. Zatara Lyo, the Supreme Court Justice. Stathis Veggos, the Police Commissioner of Justice was in attendance as well.

Daniel started getting a little nervous as he stood there behind Mali and Zoie. "Shit.." he muttered under his breath and turned his back away from the main crowd.

Pinto Rental Cars - Airport - Mexico: Natasha smiled slightly and handed over the keys. "God, you are an angel. You get first leg of the drive then," she said in happy but weary voice. She was glad that Cecily knew how to handle a stick shift. From what she had seen most in America couldn't. They were so used to an automatic just because they could drive didn't mean they could ever get a car out of gear if in a stick.

Once they were able to get their luggage loaded up she shook her head slightly. "No, don't mind. I love music. Shit I have a playlist here for about every scenario you could think of: Surgery, a run, chemo, drives, you name it I probably have something that fits," she said as she sat down in the passenger side front seat and pulled out her phone. Scrolling through it her lips pursed a bit before slipping on her seat belt. "So, what you want?"

Asylum Escape: "Oh we will, soon as we find Cynthia and after the Circus. That is unless you would rather do it again before the Circus? Either way works. Just first thing is first, we have to find Cynthia," Risa said rushing outside.

Lucas was there with the car pulled up onto the curb and the door flung open. "What the hell is this?" she asked looking at the red sports car he had just pulled up in.

"Had to improvise, let's move darlings. We have a date with chaos," he said grinning and giving a bit of a wink to the ladies. Risa rushed over and pulled the front seat forward so Jaina could get in.

Up at the door, Nurse Cratty showed up, unlocking the door quickly. "What in the hell happened?" she asked as the door was flung open. She stopped cold in her tracks as she spotted the orderly on the ground.

A Safehouse in the Deadlight District: What was happening in the bathroom was something that was best left to the imagination. All that could be known for sure that was the sounds coming out of there were something out of a Dragon ball Z episode and it sounded like Roy was powering up to SSJ500000000 in there from the grunts and groans and all other sorts of noises he was making.

Then everything went silent and a very tired and worn out voice came from the other side. "Yeah... be out in a minute," he said before the noises started up again. For the love of god, they better pray that the man has a life time supply of Fabreeze in there because it sounds like he is getting everything out of his colon that has been backed up since he was two years old.


And coming around the corner is Deeper Than The Sands, coming in at the 2 year strong forum mark! Holy hell! So yeah, major kudos goes out to @Sigil @FantasyChic @ONL @Morose @Rivaan @Nallore for being the driving force in this RP and keeping it going. We might have just lost a PC (RIP Haakon) but he will live on in our minds and our hearts, even if it was a leg lamp that took him out - Fragile my ass.

But to all of you, I just want to say...
@FantasyChic Yeah, he should be posting here tonight


Update


  • CLB
    • Well things are getting a little less crowded as the large centipede moves back from the area right in front of the stairs and crawls over to where the Hooded Figure is. One less to worry about for now.
  • CMA
    • But hey, can't stay uncrowded for long. Another Medium sized one decides to move in and take it place. At least this one is smaller. That's a good thing right?

Anisa & Jahosafat

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

Jahosafat raised a brow and chuckled. "Oh oh oh, now a big boy knows better than to step on the toes of a lady. A true gentleman knows when to take the lead and when to let the woman lead. It is true sign of how you say the Big Boys to know what etiquette should be followed and when but I do not believe I shall hold it against one who has been in the back woods of civility for such an extended period of time. Manners are often mistaken in these tainted watering holes as a childish deed instead of one of true maturity. Perhaps you have not had the privilege to be exposed to men of true breeding. Big damn heroes such as ourselves are few and far between," he said as he still didn't deal in Daphne.

This was not what Anisa had planned for this evening but things came up and plans had to change. While she would have much rather had Jackson at her side Harper would do in a pinch. At least she hoped he would. This could be a touchy moment and Anisa wasn't exactly know for being subtle. Jackson was the calm one and one of the reasons he had been her second in charge was because he knew when to pull Anisa back and when to let her run wild. The added amount of drink she had had tonight probably wasn't the best idea. It wasn't a matter of making her unable to fight, she still could shoot and take care of herself in a brawl. Yet her mouth was even looser than normal, whatever little bit of ~maybe I shouldn't say this~ filter she had when she was sober was totally gone right then.

The man did enjoy a good verbal spar but there was a difference between verbal thrust and parry and what was happening here. This to him was far deeper than that. The sister needed therapy and it seemed that Dorothy might as well since she insisted on claiming her sister was a big girl and yet treating her as a child while trying to put him in his place while he was being nothing but polite. [color=grey]"And big girls are able to speak up for themselves and not make a mockery of things. It would have been rather rude of me to deal someone in who had no requested to be. I shall ever force myself on anyone, even in the manner of cards. I shall deal her in the next if and only then if she speaks with respect and if you apologize for such impenitent rudeness."[/color]

The man that had come over walked to a door at the back of the room and knocked a few times. It slowly opened and a few words were exchanged between him and the man at the door before it opened more fully. The man stepped in and was quickly followed by Anisa. It would remain open until Harper entered and then it would be shut quickly. It seemed whatever was going on would happen behind closed doors and out of eye or ear shot of the rest of the crew. Was it something Anisa could have done in front of the crew? Maybe but to Anisa her word was law and they could either deal with whatever came of her going behind that closed door or find another ship. She wasn't picky at this point. Granted she had no idea what was going on at the table currently. No one was pointing weapons at each other, so that was a step up from when she had been sitting there.

Setting the deck down he grinned and tossed in a couple of chips. "I'll open for twenty."
