If things get real bad and you have to resort to cannibalism remember: Vegans first, they are the closest thing to grass fed.

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."

Date: Monday May 23rd, 2017 - (Remember Time Zones)


Funeral Home: David looked over towards Riley and his lips thinned. After a moment of looking down at the paper he had he shook his head. "No, I can if you feel that would be easier. There is no reason you should have to, we can take care of contacting anyone you would like," he said in a kind voice as he looked back up to her and then glanced over towards Priya. "Let me fetch you both a glass of water and you can discuss which you would prefer without prying ears," he said gently as he rose. He was rather understanding about the entire situation but to be fair this was his job and he had done this for years. Turning he stepped out of the room and drew the doors shut partially before heading up the steps and leaving the two women alone for a moment.

A little bit passed and the front door of the funeral home opened. "Hey, anyone here?" a male voice called out with a thick New York accent.

"How can I help you?" David asked as he half jogged down the stairs carrying two glasses of water. One could see the two men standing in the atrium speaking. The man looked to be in his early to mid thirty's.

"Yeah, I got a call, I'm here to make funeral arrangements for my wife," he said as he chewed on a toothpick.

"Oh yes, do you have a death certificate so that we may retrieve the body for you from the morgue?" David asked. He glanced towards the room with Riley and Priya, holding up a finger to motion he would just be a minute.

"Fuck no I don't have any death certificate. You got her body, least that is what the fucker on the phone said."

David looked really confused and stumbled over his words. "I'm sorry sir, you might be mistaken..." he started but the man stepped forward in a rather threatening manner, jabbing his finger into the Davis chest.

"Listen here you pasty fuck. You better not have lost my fucking wife or I will make sure that the next coffin that comes out of here has your body in it. Now where the fuck is my wife? Chloe Ridgeway O'FuckingReily!" the man yelled and David nearly dropped the glasses of water.

"Miss Ridgeway?"

"So you do know what the hell I'm talking about, good," he said as he stepped back and smiled. "So, like I said, I need to plan out her funeral. Oh shit, fuck. I'm Ryan."

The Farm: Zoie looked over to Mali and nodded slightly. "He said he would be here, I mean the limo is," she said. Then she yelped out as the barn caved in on itself. If Marc had been in there, he was gone now. Relic slowly sat down on the edge of the porch and just watched the flame crawl up towards the sky. "Oh god..." she said as she watched. She looked over to Mali as a few tears rolled down her cheek.

The fire truck crested the hill and came barrelling down the road. Within minutes they were on the scene and working to put out the blaze. The only thing Zoie could find the strength to do was sit down next to her brother and watch. At that moment it felt like it was pointless to put it out other than to make sure the fire didn't spread to the grass and go further. Wild fires in California were a bitch but the building was gone, anything in it would be gone as well.

"I'll go try to call him," Relic said as he finally got up and walked inside. Zoie couldn't manage to nod. She just sat there in the dress she had worn the night before and watched the fire fighters work. Had she just lost an old friend?

Queensguard: Maria snorted slightly in jest. "Oh that is nothing to what he can do. I guess he gets it from your side of the family, Alicia never smelt like that as a baby," she said before unbuttoning her coat and sliding it off finally. Laying it over the back of a chair she watched. "You have to get in there like you mean it, other wise he will develop a horrid rash," she said as she pulled out several more baby wipes and held them out to Keystone. She wasn't surprised, changing a diaper was something people had to get accustomed to.

Down at the front gate a man rolled up in an old gremlin and got stopped at the gate. "Listen man, I'm here to make a delivery. Food. To A... Angel Carmichael." Leaning back he waited as he had to hand over his ID and for his car to be searched. "Seriously? The worst thing in my car is the fucking msg on this food."

Texas/Mexico Border: As much as Cecily was trying to help, there was nothing that could be done. Natasha gasped a few more times and then nothing more came from her. She had held on as long as she could. "Nat? Nat baby you there?" a male voice came in over the speaker but there was nothing left in the doctor. The sirens grew louder as the ambulance finally pulled up and stopped about twenty feet from them. "Nat, baby? Come on now, this isn't funny answer me. Why do I hear sirens?" the voice asked, sounding slightly frantic.

The paramedics climbed out of the ambulance and rushed over. "Get back ma'am," one of them said as they came over and started working on Natasha. "No pulse" he said before he started to perform CPR as the other got the defibrillator ready.

"Nat, answer me damn it!" the man yelled through the phone.

Scotland


Kirkpatrick House: Reaching out and picking a piece of lint from the rim of collar seam he fluffed it out from between his fingers. "That is good to hear." The man gave her a rather debauched smiled before turning sharply away from her and heading towards the door. It seemed that he had said all he needed to, that was until he stopped. Standing and looked at the door before he glanced back towards Maeve, his eyes seemed to go dark as he looked at her.

"Granted I wonder if those words will hold true when push comes to shove. We will see." With that he turned around and left the room, closing the door firmly behind him as he did. "Yes, yes, I'm coming," he called out in his usual chipper but slightly vexed voice that he had been speaking with his auntie earlier. "Watch out little one," he said in a mockingly scolding manner to his son as he rushed by and down the stairs. It could be heard shortly after the foot falls of the man walking down them to the main floor.

England


London: Talk clearly, speak clearly, see clearly. Spoken words spoken, he was clear. Very clear. Clear as happy as he was, no mad. Couldn't be mad but mad was there. Why so mad? Why so serious? Why so lines wrinkle on head? What had he done? Poor man so mad, everyone was so mad. Why so mad. Be glad, not mad. Had he done it? Made them mad? Why mad? He had shown them out of city, through the wall, not under or around. Good match of chess and through the wall they went, faster than the looking glass.

So much mad, people always mad around Germany. Sailing sailing, the air was out of his sails. Biting the lip and scrunching the face, hold the tongue, speaking makes the norms mad. A sulk and a step, to the wagon and sit you will. One little, one little, one little German sitting on the wagon, better hold the tongue or get yourself dead. Little Adam seemed to sense his new masters unease and crawled into the mans lap, saying nothing. Just sitting there so arms could be wrapped around him. Solace, yes solace, sit and be at peace but what is peace. Hopefully the other speaking had brought peace, maybe mad would become glad this time.

The Sea: A dark light seemed to come from beneath the waves as the monster swam away and turned. It was hard to see as the rain started pouring down but it wasn't hard to feel as the dark light came ripping towards the small vessel and ripped right through the hull. The ship was a goner and sinking fast. The one life boat it had was shattered as a black tail came from beneath the waves and hit it like a tennis ball back beneath the surface.

The captain and his first mate went over the side of the boat. Fyror and Colette are still on the deck but that is not going to matter for long. This thing is sinking and sinking fast. The lightning flashes and one can see large sails through the distant fog rolling over the deep waves. Shit has just gone south so fast....

The Road North: Follow, follow all you like but the rains are setting in now, from some unseen force to the west and pushing east. It is a dark storm and a hard storm. As the heavens open up there is not much you can do for whatever flakes you were going to follow are dissolving faster than you can get to them. The air is taking on a harsh chill, it shouldn't be this cold. Not this time of the year.

Above the thunder rolls over you, from west to east. Lightning crashes but not your usual lightning. This isn't white and pure and bright. This is the color of wine and blood as it flashes in the sky. Whatever this is, it couldn't be good and it is pushing to the east quickly. Coming out of nowhere and taking over as the winds kick up. The further you look to the east the darker and darker it gets.

Update

*This is our last update before we go through some major changes. Please note a little time change. (After some thinking on it and reviewing - those in the Swamp, your date remains the same but the year is now 2012. You haven't time jumped, I am just making a fix. So, 2012, not 2011. This will help me in a lot of ways for the time jump update for those that were in Eden/Newnan. I should have just started you off in 2012, I wasn't thinking that was my bad. So mark this down - April 1st, 2012 is your current time and it will be the date in the next update, not this one but next, for EVERYONE.)






Eden
Location: Eden: Addams Wing
Skills: Survival

It was a quick end to what Thana had heard had been a long and drawn out torture by the people of Eden. Glancing towards Thalia she gave a nod, it was better this way. She was about to let the man draw her into a monologue to find out about her sister but no, she didn't need to know what type of torture this fucker had put her through. She didn't even want to imagine how bad it had been to be part of this settlement, if that was what one could call it. It seemed more like all the levels of hell wrapped into one and spit out onto Earth. Taking a deep breath, Thana made a quick check of the rest of the floor they hadn't checked before and returned to where she had been, just staring blankly at Adamms body.

"I hope my sister has you dressed in a french maids costume and is shoving a pineapple up your ass every hour on the hour," she said coldly before spitting on the corpse. Turning her back she finally took a moment and in that moment it hit her. Gavin was dead. A man she had cared about deeply many years ago. Someone she never thought she would see again had waltzed back into her life that morning only to die protecting others today. Figured. The man had been a Texas Ranger, didn't matter who was getting shot at, he would have dove to take the bullet.

"We need to gear up and get out of here. I made a promise I intend to keep." Her voice was shaky spoke but she held it together as she wiped her nose with the back of her sleeve and then grimaced. She had been shot and now that the adrenaline was wearing off, it was starting to hurt like a mother fucker. "I need some patching up." Holstering her weapons, she gripped her shoulder above the main shot and tightened down on it, it seemed to relieve some of the pain and took the edge off but now that things were calmer it was best to have it looked at.

October 31st, 1943 - Wash, Rinse, Repeat

You thought 2 months was something for last time. Well the Dice have decided that you were with your trainers for 4 months this last time. So you covered a lot - now to see what comes of that. Let's get down to business.

As per last round, we are breaking this down into 2 parts. Part 1 - Skills. Part 2 - Next Round. This will be round 3 of 5.

Skills: Here are the skills your characters picked up over the last 4 months of training. Last time you got two, one for each month. This time you got 4 these past four months. (Gotta love how shit changes.)

You have 48 hours from this post to edit your Cs. Copy and paste your new skills into place under skills if you have new ones to add. I would make sure you get these in post haste. If it turns out you received a skill your character already learned, well, you are out of luck - just means you got more training in it. Place a * next to it.

  • Sophia:
    • Military Tactics - In-depth knowledge of major battles through out history and how to best apply location, numbers, available weapons, and skills to the best tactical advantage during battle

    • Juggling - The ability to perform juggling acts with balls, clubs, hoops, or other various objects
    • Stage Presence - The ability to perform on stage and enhance other performances such as acting, dancing, juggling, mime, musical instrument, or singing (Must have other skill for boost)

    • Torture - Knowledge of the pain centers of the body, and how to apply pain to extract information from a person
    • Bicycles - The ability to ride a bicycle with a high proficiency, including tricks - double normal movement rate vs those unskilled
    • Photography - The ability to use both still and modern cameras including developing of film and trick of light
  • Bart:

    • Old Saxon - Place under languages

Cases: Now, time to rinse and repeat, again. Round three of five. Clean cup, clean cup, clean cup, move down, move down, move down.

As a reminder - remember as trainers, change to meet each character - so review their current Cs and their characters Cs from before. It will help.

*This is a repeat message from before but it still holds true.
Now, you have 10 days to get your case done. Once counter hits 11, you are over. So keep that in mind. I suggest you collab these out in PM with each other or on Si to make things easier than trying to post back and forth. At the end of this case I will post again, and again, until every character has gotten a decent amount of training. At the end of each Case, once it is posted and I have reviewed it, I will roll to see what skills ~stuck~, if secondary abilities came forth, the amount of control you gained, and so forth. This is going to allow us to cover a lot of time and Rping quickly. Once Training is done, then you will go on to full assignments.

The day will start like any other day at Camp, weather is the same, layout is the same. No need to worry about much to start. Letters are left and slipped under your room doors on where to go come morning instructing you to meet your trainer at the starting location. A bell will toll over the grounds at 5:50 AM to start the day, time to be at the starting location will be listed as 6:00 AM. Start your posts waking up OR there, however you wish.

Good luck and may the odds be ever in your favor. (I will be pming my students shortly.)
In 🦄 Machiavellian Masquerade - Chapter 1 → 8 yrs ago Forum: Advanced Roleplay
Alright, most of you in chat already know what's up. We have a Bakers Dozen approved and ready to go for RP. Opening scene will be posted Monday/Tuesday. (Most likely Tuesday as I have 4 updates tomorrow.) - With the opening scene will come starting places, scene, weather, ambiance, etc. Counters will start once the opening scene is posted and you will have the standard 7 day counter. Any special notes about the opening scene will be posted here in the OOC for reference.

This is a new style for many people I know, do NOT worry I will walk you through any questions and concerns as we get situated and settled into the RP rhythm. I am pretty sure I have had everyone that has been approved for the Rp message me with how they will be arriving, if you haven't dropped me a line by now about that today so you are marked down.

Secondary Quick Note: If you haven't at this point expressed interest in the RP here, pm, or discord to me - I am no longer accepting female characters - we are way too female heavy lol. (If you have already expressed interest, you are fine for the next week - after that you drop from my ~holding spot~ list.)
