⚘ 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."

Overview
Setting:
  • ... Where the hell are we?
Starting Date: D-Day of the Collide
Rp Tags: Drama, Supernatural, Mystery, Psychological Thriller, Magical Realism, Historical
Type Of RP: This is a Multi-timeline Arc RP. This is a way point that connects other RP's and their respective timelines in the LAU. Alternate time lines coming together in a mythological fight for survival and quest for answers. This is not the beginning of a new RP and the end of others. This is a breaking point that will change everything once you return to where you came from. That is if you survive.
Characters: No new characters - all characters are transfers from other LAU Rp's. I am sorry but we are accepting no new people for this.
Links To Important Posts:Warning: Characters will randomly switch out without a moments notice, so be ready! If you've Rped it in the past in any of these Rp's there is a chance that character will show up, alive or dead.

Premise

What happened when the lines between times blur and begin to collapse? What happens when those fighting battles in a war far larger than they can understand collide? In a time and a place where none of this has existed before, in a world where everything went wrong and everything went right, in a time where time does not exist. You find that your lives and time are merely relative and you are forced to make a choice. Where does your allegiance lie? To the world you knew? To a world you must learn? Or to a world that has yet to be laid out? What would happen if you could just change one moment in time? That is where we begin. The world's of different times have fallen, blurred together like water being tossed on a two wet paintings and pressed together to create something new. And what happens when more paintings are pressed into the scene? Can you fix it? Do you even want to?

It began with the Haze. Four different times have felt it, seen it, experienced it. Maybe more have. Everything is uncertain at this point. All we do know is they all have the Haze in common. Does it have to do with the Brandings of Sands? Or perhaps the Lunillud Aleae from the Black? You need answers but more than that you just need to survive. Though, considering where you are, maybe you didn't. Wait, where the hell are you?

This RP is the culmination of four roleplays, spanning over 3 years of roleplay. Thousands of posts, hundreds of NPC's, and dozens of PCs. Now it all collides. And they all will come into play. But where to start? Don't worry, you will have a guide. She's been waiting. Shall we pick up where we left off? Let's.

The Code
Below are the 2 Sheet Codes you will need for this RP. One is a Mini CS (As you have your normal CS linked from the RP your character is transferring in from.). The other is our standard header CS.

Character Sheet
* Mini Cs Update Sheet - Do not fill in Skills - Lady A will fill those in for you to transfer the correct ones over.


Header Sheet
Remember this is your uniform header code. Make sure it is used at the top of each of your posts and updated with each post. Skills must be changed out when being used. Location must be updated for each post. A non-updated header equals an incomplete post. (This means your counter is still running and you are risking getting removed from the RP.)

Keep all images in headers at 280 pxl or smaller in height.


On Deck Characters
Some Rpers have a laundry list of characters, I know I do. So to make this a bit more interesting we also have ~On Deck~ characters. These are characters you have Rped but couldn't bring in to start because of the 3 Characters At A Time In Play Limit. Due to this a lot of awesome characters are sidelined.

Currently you may chose 1 more character to draw up and submit to have ~On Deck~. This character will be your spare character. It is ready to go, approved, and in the bullpen to be brought up when needed. When you are ready you alert the GM you want to bring in your ~On Deck~ character and which character you want to ~Switch Out~. Come the next ~Snapping~ the characters will change places. The New Character will come into play. The old character will become your ~On Deck~ character. When you are ready to switch out again, you call it for the next snapping. The ~On Deck~ will replace any of your current characters, of your choosing.

Amaranthine looked over towards Dr. Swamp and nodded. While she did not understand what was within the volumes of text she could appreciate that they did hold within their covers text. Such things were rare, even by those that could write and had wealth. Yet from the looks of them, they were far older than anything she had seen before. Even to the untrained eye they had value. To someone like Swamp, she imagined that they held a far higher value because he could understand the words on the page. To her, it would have been like finding sheet music from hundreds of years ago. To be able to play such a thing would have cause wonder to her and she herself would have been lost reading what she could and perhaps feeling what the one that had transcribed it did when they wrote it.

The woman was not sure what was going on when Dr. Swamp came near her. She was worried and it was clear on her features that she was. It was not that the man hadn't earned some level of trust from her but she wore her feelings on her sleeve and it was clear she was still on edge. Then again who wouldn't be in such a situation. People were dying left and right. Some murdered, some, perhaps not? A strange home, in the middle of a storm, after a bridge blew. Though, where the people of the house telling the truth that there was no way out or was that to just deter them leaving? It was anyone's guess at this point. So when he stepped in she braced herself.

He knew who she was? Oh this wasn't good. And then she heard something whispered against her ear. Her eyes opened wide and she looked completely confused for a moment. Her head turning and she looked at him as if to ask silently, Seriously? But she held her tongue for a moment before accepting what he had told her and nodding towards him. "I would ask if you are telling me truth but I cannot imagine anyone using such a memorable name as a cover," she finally admitted. "Then Doctor is very fitting indeed. As Chanteuse is for myself. Perhaps while our names given are not on point, the titles seem to be. I wonder what this speaks of towards the others thus far in the party?" she mused as she looked around.

*Remember, roll request can be placed at the bottom of the post and results will be posted in the next update. While the door is open now, it is still dark - so rolls will be needed to move around. Those with low light will get bonuses to moving around and such with their rolls.

Hrm, nothing much to update here as no rolls where called for. Things are the same. Get a roll in chat to see if your character moves like before. Above your dex, you fail to move, below your dex you move, crit fail, pm me. Door to the west is locked. Door to the east is unlocked. The room to the east outside of the main one just south outside of Confinement have NO light what so ever as there is no window to let any in. Still no sounds at this time from what you can hear, and it is getting colder. Room to the east outside of the southern room outside of confinement though is a bit warmer than the one you are trying to leave now.

There were sounds, he could hear something so he held his ground. Titian was a man of action but that action usually had to do with either his work or women. As he wasn't on the job right then and there was no woman near by to curl up to, this left his third favorite thing to do. Eat. Hey, it was a pantry, there was food. While not hot steaming food, it was fresh. Beggars couldn't be choosers and thieves did well to keep their complaints to themselves. Finding a basket of bread that looked to have been baked that morning he pulled out a few rolls and leaned against the wall in the pantry near the door. Dagger in one hand and a roll in the other. Chewing quietly as he listened against the door. He would need to make a choice but that required thought and insight. And well we know that Titian isn't one of the great thinkers of our time.

But he could listen at least while he filled his belly. Why not? Who knew if he would ever get another meal. This could be his last and well he would much rather go out after eating something hot, slightly pink on the inside, and juicy, (A STEAK PEOPLE! HEAD OUT OF GUTTER! LOL) he was more than content with some sweet bread. Could have been worse, he had eaten worse, he didn't want to think on it. From what he could gather though from the little he could hear was that it was the kitchen staff and they were complaining about the lights being out and wondering why. They were also talking about the guests. That got his attention and he stopped mid chew. Oh, this was getting interesting. Food, warmth, and entertainment? Yeah, it could be a lot worse than it was right then.

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

Scotland



Gretna Green (Church): Millicent gave a curt nod towards Colette. She was glad the idea held merit and could be of use. Turning her attention back towards the beat before them she didn't have an answer for the woman. She was as much in the dark as Colette or anyone else was it seemed about this thing. She had never seen nor heard of such a thing before. It was like walking shadows and flames and it smelled only what she could think of what hell would smell like. Brimstone. Slowly she moved away from the other others. Making her way right from where stood and through the rows of pews to try to get to the outside of them and nearer to the wall. One hand on the hilt of her sword she drew it, as the other slipped between the folds of her dress to grip one of the two remaining daggers she had. Ny had attacked it with a dagger. Sure it didn't kill it but it did seem to injure it. So it could be harmed.

William would be prepared this round but to protect who? It seemed the women standing near him were more than up for the job and the last thing they needed was a man to protect them. (Yes, I went there LOL) Virginia threw her ax and it hit it's mark, tearing through one shoulder of the beast. The axe embedding in the stairs behind it. There was a gap there now where the smoke was lighter and one could see where it used to be solid. Maeve is able to tap into ancient site this church was built on. Many times Christian Church's would be built on the holy sites of old, a way to get people to convert, and it seemed that this was done here. Celtic runes glowing slightly on the ground beneath the creature, stopping it in its tracks and causing it to scream out. Ny takes the chance to throw his dagger again, again it hits, this time through a knee before it returns, hitting on the way back as well. Colette is ready, armed, and free to attack, as the creature stumbles forward through another row of pews.

Constantin is doing well keeping things from getting to or in Veta's way during this. Vlad, trying the same trick, this time on fire, manages to get things going but the tapestry doesn't look like it will hold. The knife hits in the beasts side. The stain glass window at the back of the church breaks in as a murder of crows caw and beat, flying in. Veta's hand move, directing the flock, their talons grabbing the tapestry and twisting and turning it, wrapping it around the beast. catching it up in the fire. The fire from the tapestry starts to burn black on the beast. Is the fire helping the creature? It seems to be getting bigger and its scream now rattles the rafters of the church. Constantin's Tretiy Glaz goes off, it is like he catches glimpses of the future in his mind, Foggy and through crystal, the flames shouldn't be black, they should be white. Another flash, something to do with prayer, purity. And when the flames are white, the beast is over the alter, not in the pews.

@role model Thank you for showing interest in the RP. Unfortunately, we are currently full, as denoted by the Join Status above.
