✾ 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."

*Roll requests can be made in chat or can be left at the bottom of your post for results in the next update. You can get a roll during your post and add another in the update at the bottom of your post! Ever in doubt of what to post, just drop me a message and we can talk.

Special Note: That Haze will remain until further notice, so make sure to keep to it. ^_^


Boat (Sun Deck): The doctor looked oddly at Mosi. "Your room is on the deck above us? Are you feeling alright? We were in the infirmary last, which is the second to the top deck and now we are out on the sun deck. The only things above us is the sky. Your room would be far below us." Maybe she was delusional. Sighing he got back to work on her hands and neck, making sure to get the rest of the stingers out of her. It would take sometime due to the amount of stings she got but eventually he was sure he had removed them all.

"Better the devil I know than one I do not," he said in response to her asking why he would prefer gas. At least gas was something tangible, an unknown force causing it meant they had no way to combat it and no real information. "Like with disease, I can treat one I know. An unknown, chances are high more people will die before a cure is found. I will take gas over spirits," he added as he rested his instrument down and cracked his fingers. Time using tweezers made them sore.

Boat (Thief's? Room): "Yes, I believe we should go," she said looking around. Her notes were not here and from the looks of things on the ship and the fact they were having to be sneaky, it was best to go and quickly. "Though I believe it would be best to find the others, this ship... I do not know, this haze bothers me. Clean air would be better," she said as she slowly stood up and braced herself against the wall. Tucking her journal into the belt of her clothing she blew her curls out of her face. "I could use a cup of tea..."

Looking over towards Josephine. "If we are to run into another, yes, you were headed to find someone help with the doctor but found me. As I have been sick and the haze you didn't wish to leave me alone. I was looking for someone to help me because of the haze. Let us head up, air, and Miss Clark, could you tell the lie? I am no good and you are an accomplished actress. If anyone can convince them of our ruse it would be you," she suggested. Vera was no actress and had a hard problem just walking without tripping up, a lie was beyond her but what was acting but lying with flair? Out of the three of them,Miss Clark had the charms and skills to deceive better than she or Reddish did when looking at it logically.

Athribis (Underground): Oh Mahendra, you lucky dog you. Well lucky cat in this case. On examining the cat, he will see that over the years there has been a build up of debris such as dust and sand along the edge which makes it look less carved into the wall than it actually it. It looks like the head, collar, and tail of the cat can be manipulated to move. Thing is, which way to turn each one? He won't be sure but what he does know is this, going off superstitions and history, a correct turn will get them where they want, a wrong turn however - death is usually on the menu. Best not to do anything until one is sure. Richard however isn't near as lucky when it comes to trying to figure things out - as far as he knows, it is only the smell of smoke, he can't pick anything else out about it.

Nora won't see what Mahendra does until he points it out - however, once he does, knowing the importance of mathematics and equations to the Egyptians she will be sure that it will have something to do with this and that there is probably a way to figure out what to do in the wall carvings that are around them. (As one would look around an office to try to figure out what is important to a person when you are trying to figure out their computers password.) Gene isn't getting anything from the cats but that smell, well I will pm you that. Faith isn't having any luck looking in the areas she can get to on the walls to the left or the right of the one ahead of them. (The front one is blocked by others looking already)

New York, New York, USA: November 5th, 1943


Siduri nodded and started the trek to where they were going. As she walked, she began to speak and gave Faith a hell of a run down. "Ahh yes, Walkers. What are known here as Zombies but here there are Zombies and they can think. The bartender at a place known as Club Afterdark. Rather decent fellow actually. Phil. Pro-Human faction. Does love his top hat and makes a delicious Manhattan." She continued going over the main seven types of kindred there were in this time line. Vampyres were on the list, as were Ghosts, and Werewolves. "Animates, like in Frankenstein. In fact, Adam Noir is one. Says he inspired the tale. Works leathers in time Square. Though his leathers are more, two legged. Anti-Human." Others she mentioned were the Daemons and Wygths - Miss Babylon and Alexander respectively. "Inuits, native American spirits, usually very vengeful against humans."

During the talk she also went through how to kill or harm the main ones. Silver, wood, copper, wrought iron were special metals that hurt certain ones. "Though, that six shooter in your bag has what is known as Kin Killers in it. A bullet that has each of those materials as well as meteorite in it. For Sorcerers. Though frankly if you wish to hurt a Flinger, just over salt their food. It causes them many problems. And well then there is..." she continued but then stopped as the smell of brimstone came into the air and she stopped. "Concrets... Dread, please show yourself."

From a dark alleyway a tall man stepped out of the shadows. The man had a Mediterranean look about him and was in a fine suit. He would have been rather handsome if it weren't for the fact that where his eyes should be where just two black masses of nothing. "Siduri, what brings you here?"

"I need an audience with Parliament, so we are going to Babylon. Faith, this is Dread. Dread, this is Miss Masters. Dread is a concrete. Think of him as, for lack of better terms, a god. Just only within a certain amount of blocks though. So little g instead of big g."


Babylon Fortress, Cairo, Egypt: October 6th, 1924

Special Note: That Haze will remain until further notice, so make sure to keep to it. ^_^
Gilbert remembers that these tunnels are part of a network that once stretched through out Egypt's upper Kingdom, whether or not they are still fully intact is yet to be determined. The only way to figure that out would be to use the actual tunnels. As they are ancient and have been closed for probably a thousand years, chances are low but they are there. It also means that they would need a light source. There was once a system in the tunnels that would light oil but is that even in still intact? Either way, what Gilbert will know is they need to make a choice and get moving. (In the next round or two, people need to move - so start rolling - no more information to gather from rolls from this point forward in this location.)

Over where James and Peter are, James is able to grab enough clothing - just plain robes - sorry nothing special is sticking out and it is a waste of time to try to window shop without worrying about getting trampled by the crowd losing their minds because of the haze. Peter gathers what he can grab and starts moving towards the wall of one of the buildings. "Stay by the walls when you can, less chance of getting run over," Peter called towards James. Thanks to some quick thinking and some good maneuvering, the two will be able to get back to the Fort this round. Going after weapons when the city is in an uproar isn't the best idea but hey, there are the tunnels beneath the city that Gilbert found. If they are intact it should get them beneath the Royal Army Base. (Though only Gilbert would know that at this point.)


Year 5: Part 2 Update

Date: July 21th, 2012 (End Of Day)
Map in Original OOC post - NPC's In CS Tab

Location: Camp Mexico Beach: H6 (Quarantine: W)

Temperature: 83F (28C)
Humidity: High (Around 73%) - No Rain
Wind Speed: 12 MPH (19 KPH)
Cloud Coverage: Overcast

Nikki stood there waiting for her reward for winning the pool game. A cheeky little grin playing on her lips. It was a good thing she had worked in CMB for a while now, she had smelled plenty of rotten things in her life so far. Between that and rotten corpses trying to eat your face a kid assplotion wasn't really anything to take note of, anyways her attention was Hunter. She managed to hold still, not leaning in as he did, simply waiting for him to pay up. Her eyes drifting close as their lips touched and pulsing gently against his. As he pulled back she stayed there and grinned before her eyes opened. "Mmm, not bad, I'll have to whoop you more often," she said with a bit of a wink. It wasn't a deep kiss or anything but it was nice and points for not trying to rob her of her gum as she started chewing again.

Checking her watch, the Major noted the time. "Time to turn in, tomorrow is a big day," she said motioning for people to start filing out for the night and head to their rooms.

"See ya tomorrow," Nikki with a grin before turning around. She started to walk towards the door to take her position but she did a little victory cabbage patch dance as she did, kicking up her skateboard from against the wall and tucking it under her shoulder.

Major just rolled her eyes and propped the door open. "Come on," she said as she took point and started to lead everyone out of the Conference Room. Nikki would take the read point and double check the doors once everyone was in their assigned rooms. Glancing over towards Thana and Ash she smirked. "Bow-chica-wow-wow," she teased. Mizrahi ruffled Nikki's hair as he walked by and into his room. Victor following close behind him. Locking their door, Nikki stuck her tongue out at Mizrahi right before she did and then moved on to the next.

(Alright, end of day peeps - tomorrow will start the new day, turn in and all that jazz.)




Thana Martin


Location: Camp Mexico Beach: Quarantine (W: Conference Room)
Skills: N/A


Thana looked over towards Ash and snuggled a bit closer to him. "Sounds more like a reward fer ya than a job," she said as a smile tugged at the corner of her lips. Not to say it wouldn't be a reward for her as well, it would. Letting out a slow breath, Thana just took a moment to try to enjoy them being together like this. It was hard though, especially when Jack and Tatiana's spawn decided to blow out the back end of his diaper. Looking over at the couple as Wayne handed off the child, Thana looked up at Ash. There was a lot the two didn't know about each other, some very personal things that they really needed to talk about. Things she would have liked to talk about but they had never had the chance. Things she needed to tell him before tomorrow because it could make or break them. The biggest one being that even if he ever wanted to have kids or raise a child she would drop him like yesterdays walker no matter how much she loved him. Kids was the break deal for her and it was the very reason she hated her dead sister with the fire of a thousand suns. Anything else she would be willing to work through, kids she wouldn't. Not even someone elses. Protect people yes; raise a child, have a child, never. Many things in a persons past one could work through, somethings scared you deeper than anything and never left you.

Taking the food from Ash as he handed to her, she ate slowly. Pacing herself. "Trainin' keeps them strong, fightin' brought us together but honestly, they just need to fuck and get it over with," she said. Her voice started off quietly but it grew in volume as she spoke, a smirk growing on her lips as she did. Taking another bite she chewed and swallowed her food. The food was good but it was way better than it had a right to be, granted that was how things were. When you hadn't eaten in a while a can of dog food could taste like a five star meal. Sighing to herself she looked up at Ash as her thoughts went back to the fact they really needed to have one hell of a heart to heart. The Conference room wasn't the place but at least they would rooming together tonight, alone. Thana then said the three words most people dread. "We gotta talk." She left it at that for now.

When the Major said it was time to head to bed, she looked at Ash and wrapped her arms over his shoulders. "A'right, giddy up," she teased him. There was a playful look on her face. He didn't have to carry her, she was more than capable of walking on her own. That didn't mean she wanted to and that she was going to throw away a chance to be carried. Screw that. Especially if everything changed tonight, she wasn't about to throw away a chance to be in his arms. Looking over at Nikki as she spoke in their direction she rolled her eyes and gave the girl a look, it wasn't harsh but it did say don't push it. More like a big a sister would look at a little sister if she was caught wearing her sweater.



Tatiana Newnan


Location: Camp Mexico Beach: Quarantine (W: Conference Room -> Room 3)
Skills: N/A


Tatiana blew out a breath as Wayne came over and handed over Jamie to Jack. "Yes, your turn. Have fun," she teased as she held her nose. She was more than happy to let Jack change Jamies diaper. She had changed plenty of them when she was on the road alone. Staying out of the way she watched and thought back to some of the numerous diapers she had changed when she was alone. One stood out, when she had to perch up in a tree in the middle of winter when Jamie was a newborn. That was one she hoped she never had to repeat. It was a dark time but little did she know that times would get a lot darker for her and Jamie before they got better. They were better now though. They were here and hopefully they would stay here. There were some things that Tatiana didn't like about CMB but there was a lot she did like. Sure safety was never guaranteed but this place was the best place they had seen since Newnan had fallen. And if they had the resources to put Thana back together, it said a lot.

Looking over at the Major announced it was time to turn in for the evening she nodded and wait for Jack to finish changing Jamie before starting to head for their room. Last night. Tomorrow would be the deciding moment. She wondered how they would go about it. Would they just tell them if they were in or out, would there be a review, would it be public if there was, would they make them chose first and then let them know out of those that chose to stay if they were chosen? Would any of them know what the other said? And what about Thana? And the paper work that CMB now had from Newnan? How much of that would go with what everyone had said. Tatiana glanced around and wondered just how much what she had said would back fire on the others. In the end, she oddly found she didn't care. As long as Jamie was safe she would throw them all under a bus, herself included. Kissing Jack and Jamie Tatiana laid down in bed and went to sleep. Tomorrow was a new day and perhaps the start of a new life.




Wayne Maldonado


Location: Camp Mexico Beach: Quarantine (W: Conference Room -> Room 7)
Skills: N/A


"All yours daddio," Wayne said as he handed off Jamie to Jack. "Oh please, the Sox are fully displayed in that butt blow out," Wayne smirked as he walked away. "Only team worse, the Cubbies and even they can do better." Wayne chuckled as he looked over towards Hank. "Oh let him wipe the kids ass, being a Beaner he's gotta be used to it," Wayne added, poking fun. He wasn't malicious about it but the man had spoke out against the Yankees and well, a good New Yorker couldn't let that slide. Granted, had this been in a bar in the Bronx that would have gotten Jack a bottle upside the head but hey, they were at the beach and he was for lack of a better term - retired. So vocal pushes were about as much as he was going to do towards Jack. Though that really was more for Jamie and Tatiana. Jack put off a weird vibe to him, nothing bad but there was something going on there and he did like Tatiana and Jamie. So for them he played nice. Plus he didn't want Tatiana to kick his ass.

Looking over at the Major he grinned. "Sweet, clean air," he laughed as he began to stroll towards the door. Last day of quarantine tomorrow and he would find out if his seeing things would keep him out of the place. From what he could gather he didn't know but as far as he knew his interview went pretty good and it was a hell of a lot faster than most people's. He was actually surprised that no one had been tossed out already all things considered but hey, these people had a way about them and he did want to get to know that little dish known as Daytona a bit more. Who knew, maybe he could enjoy a long walk on the beach. Ugh, sand in his shoes. Now worries, it would wash off. Okay, bed, snore, tomorrow. Walking into his room he flopped down on the bed and was out fast. God love being an old man with emotional issues, made sleep come fast. At least he wasn't farting tonight.
