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."

Ludwig Zimmer
Location: The In-Between: Plains between River and Cave
Skills: N/A

The tiger shook out its head before moving towards Virginia slowly, sniffing her skirt before he started to walk around her, pressing against her hand. He seemed to know her or at least be alright with her presence. Or maybe she just seemed like a better companion than the man that was standing there bouncing on the balls of his feet with weak knees. "Yes, coil, snapped but bounce, can bounce. I don't need a coil if I can bounce." He gave her a tight lipped goofy grin and nodded knowingly, a bit too much and a bit too enthusiastically. "Partially dead, partially alive. Yes, many half and half. Not like curds and whey, maybe like curds and whey. Yes! Exactly like curds and whey. One thing, another thing, from same thing. Yes! Brilliant!" he said with a triumphant hand gesturing towards the air before writing back in his journal.

The mans head was nodding up and down as he wrote. "Yes, divine. Not good but other divine. Not devil but god, god like. Divine. Yes, Whisglemangers perfectly divine. Bottomless and they are black and they are eternal." Looking up from his book he pushed his glasses back up from the tip of his nose. "And smell, like flobbottom gas."

Ludwigs head snapped like on a swivel towards Andromeda when she proclaimed he was not mad and was in fact very glad. He smiled towards her and nodded. "Yes, yes, very glad," he chortled. His knees swaying left and right and right and left, around and around, to and fro, as if it was to a beat as he sung off key. "Faith and eve, eve and faith. Faith for tomorrow, yesterday was eve."

At Faith's question he slammed his book closed and shoved it in his bag. Then he jumped up and over, landing a few feet over. "Ta-da!" he said rather proudly of himself. "Jumping!" He did it again. "Was here." Again. "Now here." Again. "Holler, Holler, Holler. Was with Miss Holler." Again. "Now, you. So glad. New people. Always new people. Not always, sometimes same, sometimes old ones, but many new. Glad of new and glad of old, not glad when alone." He jumped again. "Jump like jacks, and marbles, until marbles are gone, when gone then get new. Here and there, there and here. Wolf and tiger, judgement and eve, hog to cat, holler and faith." One last jump, hopefully. "And Virginia to Ludwig!" he said pointing to Virginia and then to himself before he took a bow that looked like he was trying very badly to copy a rather boisterous Russian he had once met.

With all his jumping around, he seemed to be kicking up some dirt in the process. Two little items rolled across the ground and stopped between the group without him noticing. Covered with dust, it was hard to say what they were but they didn't seem to be just rocks. They had definite edges to them and seemed symmetrical.

Kyra Altham
Location: PE Fade Between
Skills: Animal Control (Wolf)

Kyra cast a glance towards Constantin as her wolf stayed close to her and rested back on his rear legs. Reaching out she rested her hand on the back of his head and gave just the slightest of nods. "Death has no boundaries." It was a rather vague statement and didn't explain much, or maybe it did. She didn't think on whether it did or not. She looked at Mahendra when he proclaimed that he indeed did not reek of fear. A brow barely rose for he did in fact smell of fear. Perhaps it was one of those things she had long forgotten to worry about. What others thought. Fear was fear.

It seemed introductions were once again in order and she nodded towards Gio. "Kyra, The Wanderer," she said. She hadn't used that title before with the other group but then again, they hadn't introduced themselves with a title either. "Ash," she added as she pointed to the wolf that was sitting at her side as calmly as if he were some pet instead of a wolf the size of a tiger.

"Collapse?" Her head tilted to the side slightly at that word. Looking up she gave this look of 'well that makes sense' before looking back at Gio. "Dead," she said pointing towards herself and then Ash. She hadn't gotten there it seemed the same ways the others did. She was in fact dead. It was one of the few things that still made her eye twitch when she thought about her last moments before everything went dark. She would had answered about this Egypt place but it seemed The Watch had an idea. Mahendra picking up some dirt and looking at it didn't seem to get her attention. Mahendra though would learn something interesting: in all his years, while this was dirt, he had never seen such a composition. It seemed to be compiled of grains and chips of rocks from places he was familiar with because of study. The thing was, they were no where near each other. It was like a compounded dirt that had been mixed together by some accident in a lab. (As if someone had taken samples from different continents and accidentally dropped them and they all mixed together.)

Ash got up and walked over towards Gio. It wasn't aggressive, more inquisitive. Sniffing the man slightly before his head turned and he looked towards Kyra and gave a muffled whimper-bark before shaking his fur out. Kyra tilted her head to the other side. "I see," she said before the wolf padded back over to her. "He says you smell like woman we met once." Ash nudged Kyra's thigh gently and she sighed. "Dark hair, light eyes, smelled faintly of time."
Elizaveta Romanova
Location: DttS Fade Between
Skills: Chteniye Dushi

The Baron gave a toothy grin as he pulled Josephine a bit closer as Faye and Elizaveta spoke. "Now Chers', we are all friends here just looking for a good time. As she has said, I am the Baron and no, I did not bring you here though I am very fond of the lovely company, from all of you." he said with a rough dark chuckle as he spoke. "Witchery? I would be careful who is throwing stones Bebe'. Del'ataunt is but a child in the ways," he seemed to warn. "I could not let this one go. I would hate to disappoint her," he added as the snake slithered down and started trailing from Josephine's shoulder down to her waist. "And since the promise of a smoke and a drink have flown away, I will have to find another way for you all to pay for services desired."

Taking half a step back, Elizaveta looked at the man with the serpent slithering over him. Her eyes slowly going over towards William as he asked if this thing or any of them had brought them there. She too wanted an answer to that question. Yet it seemed that neither of them had an answer to that question. Elizaveta stood there, still looking as if she would strike the man if he tried anything but she nodded respectfully towards the two women that were there. "Grand Duchess Elizaveta Romanova," she said in a bird like voice that was laced with a thick Russian accent as she introduced herself. Romanova, now there was a story. There was a slight shake of her head. "Vas in Scotland. Then ruins. Nov here. No knov hov."

As they seemed not to know she did have more questions but she didn't like the mention about making a possible deal with the man they were calling the Baron. He reminded her far too much of a woman she had dealt with in the past. It didn't sit right with her. None of it did. Taking a step tentatively forward she looked directly at the Baron. Her hand gripping her sword tighter the closer she got to him. He didn't seem to mind. His grin growing as she locked eyes with him. "Careful little doll," he warned.

Elizaveta stopped for a second before steeling herself and stepping closer still. She stood there for a moment before stepping back sharply. "Vhat delivery are you?!? she demanded to know as she stared at him.

"Nothing you want to toy with," he said in a stern voice before looking back at Josephine and his face softening, if only in the slightest. "Shall we my dear?" he said gesturing in a direction.

L5 (Mess Hall): Everyone is either eating, or heading out. Milling about and talking a bit to each other. No big changes here this round within the mess hall other than what is in posts. "Band" group has left, Atticus reaction to Hunter is in Nikki's portion of the post.

Thana Martin
Location: Camp Mexico Beach: L5 (Mess Hall)
Skills: N/A

Thana let off a little bit of a smirk as she sat there eating and listening to Ash try to act like a normal human being just having a normal lunch. She understood but it wasn't like this was the first time he had been quiet. Even back in Newnan, the little she had been there, it had taken a bit to get him to actually talk. At least normally. He was fine if asked direct questions but over all, he was not a come out and say things kind of person. Poking and proding had seemed to be needed with or without needing to process things. "Uh-huh, well you've been processing since I met ya," she said poking a bit of fun at him as she nudged him in the shoulder with her own.

Glancing at her dad she nodded. "Wouldn't surprise me if he was," she said before taking another bite of her dinner. Thing was, she didn't sound like she was joking at all. "Long as I can remember dad just seemed to know what people were thinking." There was a bit of a shrug. When she had met up with her dad after she returned, and Ash was standing there, she had barely said anything to him, they just seemed to look at each other and have a conversation. "Dad's a human lie detector. And where Grandpapi and Uncle Maddy are talkers, Dad never found it needed."

"Out of that group? God, I don't even want to know who is the promiscuous one. That is just a damn unsettlin' thought." Thana shuttered visibly at the thought. It was damn unnerving. Shifting her leg slightly under the table, she grunted. It was sore that was for sure but she had two steel pins removed from her leg yesterday. It was going to be a bit of a pain for a few weeks. There was nothing to be done about it and unless it really started to hurt pain meds were not something that were an option. CMB was well supplied to a point but one still had to only use what was needed, plus she didn't want to get used to a pain killer and then not be able to deal.

Thana thought for a moment before looking over to Ash. "Hey, at least yer processin' comin' in here is better than mine was," she said thinking back to her coming into Newnan. Being shuffled away to a house, informed her sister was dead, paraded out in front of everyone, the entire Richard thing, then being taken as a plus 1 to a wedding, thrown into a job she hadn't agreed to because he got ahead of himself, the gas leak, the hallucinations, Newnan falling, invading Eden, watching Gavin die in front of her. Her first two days with the people of Newnan hadn't exactly been smooth. He was already a week in without shit hitting the fan here. Hell her first week in CMB she was in a coma, and many weeks after that. Her first week after waking was spent using morse code to communicate. Yeah, as much as she understood she wasn't exactly sympathetic right then.

Walking back to where her cart was, Nikki checked it for supplies just to make sure. Not that petty theft was a problem in the town but people could think part of what she had on the cart were things that needed to be put up instead of things she was taking from the kitchen to the beach. Simple mix ups did happen. While she was doing that, Atticus was busing his tray. He was about to walk out the door when Hunter came over and seemed to be having a hard time getting out what he needed to say. "Just take a breath," the Padre told him before waving the others off. "Be there in a minute guys," he told them before looking back at Hunter.

After going over everything, Nikki, took ahold of the cart and started pushing it out into the main Mess Hall area. Atticus seemed to be thinking when he spotted her and waved her over. "Yeah but hold on," Atticus told Hunter. "Nikki, can you come here?" he asked her.

Nikki quirked a brow but shrugged and pushed her cart over to the two guys. "What's up Padre?" she asked before blowing a bubble with her gum.

"Hunter needs to get his dog and I need to get down to the beach for sound checks. Can you take him?" he asked her.

"I gotta get this shit down there before Auntie has my ass in a sling," she said gesturing at her cart.

"Make you a deal, I'll take the cart down to the folks setting up since I am going that way and then you can take Hunter," the Padre offered.

Nikki thought on it for a moment and nodded. Padre was in charge of the Chaplin Department, which was in charge of tonight. So any request or order he gave her, well if something went wrong she could blame Padre. "Deal but Auntie yells at you, not me," she said as she pushed the cart towards Atticus.

He smirked and nodded, taking the cart and then looking at Hunter. "You're all hers, she'll take you over," he said before pushing the cart out of the mess hall and down towards the beach to catch up with the others.

Nikki rested her hands on her hips and watched the Padre leave before looking over towards Hunter. "Alright, let's go cutie. They go over the pet rules yet or ya need me to go over them with you?" she asked before she started to head for the door and headed outside.

*Note, for future reference - Meals are only in the Mess Hall unless special circumstances (Quarantine, people in the hospital, Event). So Hunter will not be allowed to have food elsewhere and cannot take his meal elsewhere. Food isn't allowed elsewhere. Was explained/in paper work already. Just reminding as he was thinking to find elsewhere to eat.

Evelina Lucas
Location: The In-Between: Plains between River and Cave
Skills: N/A

Many things went through Evelina's mind as Faith spoke. She kept all her thoughts to herself. Right then, she felt it was the best thing to do. Sometimes silence was golden. It gave a person time to reflect. On what they had been told and more than that just what they were saying. Her feet hitting the ground with each step she took and the sound of gravel grinding under foot being muffled out by the talking of the Paradox. A blank expression on the Emendators features as she walked, back ridged and arms loose at her sides. Her dark hair, longer now than it had been, hung down her back and whipped slightly in the wind. Time did that. While for Faith it had been less than a week since Evelina had left, less time than a short vacation, a time so short she wouldn't have even have had to pluck her brows. Time in the end for anyone was relative. A thousand years could feel like a few minutes. A few minutes could feel like a thousand years. It all depended on how you spent the time and who was around you. Right then, a few minutes felt like a thousand years. Chances were nothing would change that.

Stopping for a moment, Evelina looked up and away as Faith finished talking. Turning her head to the left and then to the right. Glancing around with the same blank expression she had had when the Paradox was talking. There was no evidence how what Faith said affected Evelina. Had she listened? Had she heard her? Had it hurt? Angered? Calmed her? One couldn't tell. She just stood there, looking in one direction and then another. Keeping what went through her mind to herself before looking back in the direction she had come from.

"How close to death do you really want to get?" A sideways glance was cast towards Faith as she spoke. "Take it from someone who contemplates the terror of nothingness every extricable moment of their existence." Evelina's voice was calm as she spoke. "You don't understand what that is." Even and emotionless. "I hope you never do." Before, while reserved most of the time Evelina had held emotion. "I am so sorry I am such a disappointment to you." The last time Evelina has spoken to a Paradox before today she had erupted towards them. "It doesn't make any difference." Today, at most, she had shown only a hint of emotion. "What do you do when you realize you might not be the good guy?" The longer time went by though the less there was. "I did what I had to do." Until there was nothing left but a hollow echo. "If I had to do it again, I would." Evelina was not the same. "There is no way out."

Taking a deep breath she turned her head. "At least not for me." Placing one foot in front of the other. "The void within me is bottomless and it is black and it is eternal." In the same direction she had been going. "You can't save me." The direction she had said she was going to walk. "No one can." Towards the river. "I'm already gone." Sharp rocks were starting to line the area as she walked, taller and taller the closer she got to the river itself. "That's just the roll of the dice." It was still someways off when Evelina had to step around one of the larger rocks and behind it out of sight. "And even I cannot change that." She never emerged from the other side.


Kyra Altham
Location: DtB Fade Between : PE Fade Between
Skills: Alertness, City Knowledge (The In-Between), Animal Control (Wolf)

Kyra looked up towards the sky and away as the others talked. Turning her head to the left and to the right as the others kept speaking. Was what they saying having any effect on her? It was unclear as her eyes moved and swept across the landscape slowly, as if she was scanning for something. "A shift is coming." Her words were blank as she spoke, as if she was telling someone that two plus two equaled four or letting them know what the weather would be tomorrow. It wasn't even clear if she was actually speaking to them or just to the air as the words left her lips. Ash lifted his head slightly, sniffing the air for a moment before resting himself back down in Kyra's lap.

Whatever it was, it didn't seem to concern either of them. Though, things didn't really seem to faze Kyra. Emotionless, even, there was not much there to define her. People appearing in the middle of this place and she seemed no more surprised than if when she laid her head down at night she fell asleep. Was it expected? Or just common occurrence? Perhaps she had a numbness to the world. Perhaps that is what happened to people when they came here. While she did not say much though, she listened. A simple nod coming from her at the question Mali gave her. Proserpine? "Yes."

***** Snapping *****

Taking a deep breath, she would have said more but there was nothing more to say to those that were not there. Looking around from where she sat she didn't recognize any of the people standing up around her. Kyra did not bother to shrug or even look perplexed. She merely patting the large wolf resting its head in her lap. It sat up, sitting it was nearly as tall as those standing around. A slow breath left her nose as she stood up and looked around. Taking in her surroundings.

"Shiftings..." she said to herself as she kept looking around. The wolf stood up and padded around Kyra protectively. Sniffing slightly as he did, his large tongue lapping out to lick his own nose. Kyra looked down at the wolf for a minute before looking finally at the people standing there. "You smell of fear." Her voice was direct as she looked towards Mahendra. She looked each of them over. "More strange clothing." She seemed to be talking more to herself than to those actually standing there.

Elizaveta Romanova
Location: Soulless Fade Between : DttS Fade Between
Skills: N/A

Turning her head Elizaveta looked towards Constantin, her fingers resting on the walls of the ruins. Gently running over the worn stone. There was a nod from her. "Da, perhaps. Elsevhere as vell. Vould be good? Safe but elsevhere? Ve can hope," she said softly as her fingers left the wall and she walked over towards Constantin, reaching out and taking his hand in hers. Another nod, as if to reassure herself along with him. "They are strong, they survive. Ve survive." She didn't know that for certain but as she had said, hope. It was what they had. Perhaps they were still in the church, wondering the same. Thinking the same. Hoping the same.

At Constantin's question, Elizaveta looked around. Dieter? It took her a minute to remember the small animal that was with the German. Pursing her lips together she let go of Constantin's hand and started looking around but it was no good. Dieter, the ferret not the brother, was no where to be found. He was not with them. Perhaps like others, like Millicent and Colette and Ny, he was elsewhere as well. She could hope. Hope was all they had now. They were elsewhere. A place they didn't know, coming by a way they had not expected.

While during her looking around, Elizaveta hadn't found anything of note, someone else would. Virginia, in her speaking and looking seemed to have clued in on something. On one of the other walls, etched in the stone but faded and worn was the same symbol that Elizaveta had drawn in the dust on the floor of the church, the Belladonna. It seemed there was a connection. If that connection meant anything or not was yet to be seen but there it was. Perhaps not as clear as day but clear as a foggy night: which for Virginia might have been preferable.

Turning her head, Elizaveta looked towards Vlad and sighed. "Let us take a moment. reserve fire for grand finale, da?" she said in a calm voice towards Vlad. There was a slight glance towards William as he introduced himself. "Much of the time even the purpose ve find is not the one meant." Or perhaps there was none? During Williams searching he would find nothing he could link to England or Scotland. Nothing other than the symbol that Virginia had already discovered.

***** Snapping *****

Elizaveta was about to say something else to Vlad when she suddenly appeared elsewhere. She spun around quickly, her hand falling to the hilt of her blade. Only she didn't know those standing around her. She knew William but only barely. Seeing the other two women standing with this strange looking man with a snake her eyes narrowed. "Vhat vitchery is this?" she asked. The two women were dressed in away she didn't understand and the man looked like something that had just docked from the West Indies. "You look of the Del'ataunt Graveolase..." She did not sound happy about that as her grip on the hilt of her blade tightened.

Skills: N/A

Thana gave a slight smirk and shook her head. "Oh don't put that on me. Last time I even tried to mention anything booze wise she told me to shove it where the sun don't shine. You wanna deal with that hornets nest that is all on you and I ain't gonna be in fall out range," Thana said before pushing her food around on her tray a bit before finally getting a piece on her fork. Taking a bite she chewed her food quietly and looked around to see what was going on before having to remind herself that she was basically off duty. There was no ever full off duty, even here, but she was as off duty as she could get and she was in the mess hall, there was no reason for her to be on the look out other than just habit. It was a good habit to have in this world but then again if you were so focused on everything else you missed the here and now as well.

Turning her head she looked over towards Ash. He really wasn't saying anything or giving her anything. Well, his presence, which was nice, but two people sitting in silence with only one really giving anything wasn't exactly a great dinner conversation. Out of everything she had said to him, he only half responded to one thing. Picking up her napkin, Thana wiped her mouth before turning slightly and rested her elbow on the table as she leaned her head into her palm. "Anyone ever tell you that you talk to much?" she asked him with a hint of sarcasm in her voice and a sly smirk pulling at the corner of her mouth. Hopefully that little verbal poke would get him to talk a little more or at least be aware that she wasn't going to hold a one sided conversation with herself while he eavesdropped.

Nikki looked over towards Amelia a little confused as she chewed her food. Wanted to get away from the crowds? Pursing her lips as she swallowed she shook her head. "Beach area where you can go is limited. Everyone's gonna be there. Better get used to the crowds. Unless you're home, this is about as quiet as it gets," she said waving her fork around the room to the people sitting down and eating before adjusting the grip on her fork and stabbing a piece of meat on her plate. "Nah, not everyone but most if you have been here for more than a couple of years. Some come in with some, mostly things just stick. Like Checkbook. Writing checks my ass can't cash," Nikki said with a grin as she popped her fork in her mouth and pulled it out clean with a grin and a wink. "Talk to the band tonight, maybe they'll cut a deal with ya," she said with food in her mouth to Riley mentioning the guitar.

More would have been said but Lisa came over as she was chewing. "Hey girl. Just shoveling food before running. Gotta get shit down to the sands before the party," she said after she swallowed. Standing up, she grabbed her tray. "Here, take my seat. Watch out though, these two will talk your ear off," Nikki added sarcastically with a giggle before she turned and started skipping off. Bobbing her head as she bussed her tray and went to go grab her cart. It would have been nice to sit and talk for a while but Maddog had already basically told her to get her ass in gear once today, she didn't want a repeat. And she did want to have fun at the party tonight.

"How about to trust me? That I wouldn't leave unless I had to? That if I say don't follow me don't? To think on what I tried to teach you? That you aren't special, none of us are. That I owe you nothing, that no one does," Evelina said as she started packing up. Stopping she sighed and shook her head. "Never mind. Talking to you is like talking to a wall. Yes, I am stupid. I thought I could get through to you and trust you to have learned something. That now knowing that I left to save another, not to help you, would have sunk in. But as you seem to believe that myself and the rest of the Emendators are stupid I see that was a fools hope." Picking up her pack she kicked dirt over the fire to put it out. Faith was speaking just as she did back when she was taken with Bart to Club Afterdark. Even worse now from Evelina could recall. It sickened her. Especially the way she spoke about the other Emendators.

"As far as who is saving who, you figure it out. I am either too inept to know the answer or you won't listen to the one I give you," Evelina added. Opening her pack she reached in and pulled out her dice. Rolling them over in her hand a few times before placing them softly back in the pack. Tightening it down she slid her pack onto her shoulder and stepped to the edge of the cave.

There was a pause in Evelina's movements, closing her eyes and feeling as well as she could which direction other Emendators were, other Paradoxes. Her head turned one way and then another, as if she was feeling in the directions instead of actually looking. As her eyes opened, something cemented in her mind but as she stepped out of the cave she didn't move in either direction her head had turned. She seemed to be walking back towards the water where Faith had come through. Not directly, like she was aiming to get there but further up the river. "I am going this way," she said as she motioned in the general direction.

Kyra Altham
Location: DtB Fade Between
Skills: Alertness, City Knowledge (The In-Between)

Taking a breath, Kyra leaned her head back against the wall face and her eyes darted around the area for a moment before she stopped. The wolf seemed content to just lay there next to Kyra, yawning every so often before resting his head down in Kyra's lap, taking up most of it. Looking down Kyra rested her hand on his fur and ran her fingers through it idly. Her eyes still looked out beyond where they were sitting, like she was watching something or for something. She didn't seem to be listening but as Mali spoke she uttered a few words. "Blights," she said in reference to the creatures that Mali was speaking about. Tilting her head to the side she took note of the womans hands. Glowing, that was different to her but she made no mention of it.

Yet as Robert started talking, her brow quirked a bit. She though. Still listening to what the others were saying. When Caesar mentioned the name Keystone the woman's head seemed like it could have snapped the way she turned it so quickly in Caesar's direction. Keystone, that was a name she had not heard since the tower. That was not a good day. "Keystone? Large Pugilist?" she asked before looking away. "Speak with Proserpine." It seemed the woman was able to weave together more than two words but what she lacked in length of sentence was probably made up with meaning behind it. At least with one of those words, some in the group might know the name, for different reasons, none of them good. Lifting her hand she pointed up the wall of rock and back some what. "Chthonic Groves. Four days that direction."

Elizaveta Romanova
Location: Soulless Fade Between
Skills: N/A

The feeling when her hands joined with Virginia and Vlad was something Elizaveta had no experienced before. It was hard to put it to words. Flying? Light Headed? The world around her seemed to fall away to another. What was happening? She wasn't sure. She had only hoped that by following the threes that were making themselves evident and joining the three families that maybe the source of their families abilities would be able to be tapped and they would see what Vlad had seen. It was a shot in the dark but considering everything they had recently seen everything seemed to be up in the air. What happened however was nothing she could have ever imagined. It was something out of left field and completely unexpected. Perhaps though, that was how things were now. One could only expect the unexpected and pray they had it in themselves to deal with it.

As they seemed to land in this new place Elizaveta let go of Vlad and Virginia's hand, only to place her own to her brow and take a few long and deep breaths. This was not the first time she had been transported elsewhere. That thing which took her seemed to do the same but much more violently. Yet, it still was not an easy feeling. After a moment she lowered her hands and took a look around. "Ve transport?" she answered towards Williams question of what happened. She was not sure herself. All she knew was they were in a church. This looked like it could have once been a church but not the one they had been in. This was far too different. Taking a deep breath she shook her head. "Do not knov," she said truthfully.

Slowly she stood, finding her legs a tad wobbly but she soon found more stable footing beneath herself as she continued to look around and take in where they were, wherever that was. "Da, beautiful in unique vay," Elizaveta said in a calm voice. Perhaps a bit too calm, like she hadn't fully let herself grasp what had just happened. Though as far as she knew they were just elsewhere, like Virginia said. Could have been somewhere in Scotland for all she knew. Stepping slowly she walked towards one of the ruins walls and looked at it but it wasn't telling her anything. She couldn't pick out any markings that made any sense to her. Turning her head she noted not all of them where there. "Do you think others are safe?" she asked, just in general and to no one in particular.


(As William does not have a perception skill - he cannot call for a skill roll using that. Use skills listed of N/A for a roll without a skill. Skills listed must be skills in CS. Rolled this time but no results. William is not picking up on anything.)

Scotland


Gretna Green (Church): Millicent looked confused as Veta spoke. "Again? I don't know about the rest of you but I would do very well never having to do any of this again," she said as she looked around. The last thing she wanted to do was to have to repeat what they all just went through. If she could get through the rest of her life without ever seeing another dark beast that smelled of brimstone. Then Virginia's words made her stop. "What?" was all she could muster to say. She heard and understand the words but the why was probably a better question. Millicent felt she was in the same boat as Meave, she hadn't a clue what was going on.

Ny just chuckled and took a seat. "Oh my, yes, yes, let us see what happens!" he said as he pulled out his journal and started writing again, he wanted to get this all down. Seemed those touched with a bit of madness knew what was going on. William seemed to be readying himself for something. (Note, during switch over, fighting skills can only be used in actual actions, not prepping for action. That takes things like alertness to pick up on things.) Dieter, the ferret not the brother, seemed to be looking around at what was going on but he was fine with Constantin being his care taker for now.

"I do not know if I wish to know what is about to transpire..." Millicent said as she looked at the Circus folk and her dearest friend before glancing towards Maeve and Colette.

Veta smiled over towards Virginia as she took her hand, squeezing it gently in the process. Looking over towards Constantin she still held the simple smile. "Stand guard, as alvays," she said with a soft nod. Turning her head she took Vlads hand as well. Now, what Veta was going for was hoping that bridging together the families that Vlad would be able to show her and Virginia what he had seen. Maybe between that, and other skills they would be able to find out some valuable information and more importantly a destination to go to from here.

Thing was... It didn't work. But it backfired so horribly that while the two women got a glimpse of what Vlad had seen when he attempted this before, so did Constantine and William. The five of them got more than a glance. They felt it, they saw it first hand, and the world around them started to fade away. It was like closing ones eyes and going straight into a dream. They weren't the only ones affected either. Millicent, Colette, Maeve, and Ny didn't see anything that the others were but they did see something. As they looked at each other, they started to fade away. Starting slowly at the hands and the edges of their bodies and quickly worked inwards until they were gone. Millicents eyes widened, she seemed to try to say something but her body was gone before she could utter a word. Ny just kept writing as his body faded away.

For the five, they saw rolling fields of dust and desolation, rivers of darkness, and then a building. A lone standing barren structure. And then they were in it.

At this point, DttS is now fully merged over to T.S. - please make your next posts there. I will be updating the lists shortly. ^_^ Colette, and Maeve have 1 last post in this RP - their fade out. Up to you two to wrap it up. ^^

Location: Camp Mexico Beach

Humidity: High (Around 83%) - No Rain
Wind Speed: 15 MPH

L5 (Mess Hall): Joaquin perked up when Thalia came over, standing from his seat and grinning at his sister. "Then let us talk, do not run from me and my friends in camp. Let us sit and converse about the past, the present and a future, my little sister," he said with a cheeky grin.

Shears chuckled. "Always a damn mouth full with this one. Like he's Shakespear in the park or something," Sheers laughed.

Roy just rolled his eyes. "At least he isn't drunk," Roy muttered before shoving a bite of food into his mouth.

Snickering Sheers clapped a few times as he laughed before looking back at Thalia. "Happy to but yeah, like the windbag said. Why not have a seat with us?" he offered before Roy pointed out that some else was already waiving Thalia over to him. "Oh looks like you got a dinner invite, hit me up if you want another. No needing to be waiting a year between cuts anymore."

"Yeah, just make sure your loud when you go into the barber shop, he's usually asleep," Roy quipped.

"Oh she does, well then, off to your friends and we will share a drink and a talk tonight my sweet sister," Joaquin added as he sat back down.

The table with Bass, Maddog, Panama, Volts, Atticus, and Auntie seemed to be done eating and were cleaning up their dishes before rushing them over to bus their trays. Maddog broke off from them and headed over towards where Nikki was sitting with Riley and Amelia. "Checkbook, need the supplies down at the beach now," he said before tapping his watch and walking off. The small group left the Mess Hall together.

Thana Martin

Skills: N/A

Thana nodded slightly as she reached over and rested her hand over Ash's, giving him a gentle squeeze. "Hey, he understands. Usually it's a monthly thing to go out there but special times they let others go out there. You got people out there, give ya a chance to say goodbye. Ain't something we get a lot of these days, so when you actually can you need to. He gets that," she said quietly as she leaned her shoulder against his. The people buried in the graveyard weren't people she needed to or even wanted to visit but what she needed for closure and what others needed were two different things. If Ash wanted to go out there, she'd put in the paperwork and talk to her grandfather about it. She'd go with him if he wanted. But they could talk about that more later.

Taking a bite of her food she looked around the room as people were grouping off. "Good to see some of them tryin' to get to know the others," she said motioning with her fork towards the different pairings off of people that had just gotten out of Quarantine. "I think dad made some friends from Quarantine," she added pointing over towards Gunny with Hank and Wayne. "It's going to be the CMB version of King Of The Kill," she chuckled quietly thinking on it. She could imagine them standing at the party tonight holding drinks and every so often just saying 'yup' or 'mmhmm' as they stood in a line watching everything going on. It was a pretty soothing thought to her, it was something normal in this world of chaos.

"Oh, over there, with Edna, that's Rosie," she said pointing towards the heavily tattooed and greased woman. "Her and Mizrahi built the truck I came in on, off your plans." It was a little bit of information. "The younger girl with them is Ada, she runs the distillation division in camp," she added pointing to the brunette woman sitting with Edna and Rosie that wore black coveralls.

Nikola Warren
Location: Camp Mexico Beach: L5 (Mess Hall)
Skills: N/A

Nikki took a bite of her food as she waited to see if Riley and Amelia were going to join her. Chewing slowly as they came over and sat down. She invited them over, and they said... nothing. Okay, that was weird. But hey they joined her. That was something? No not really. Swallowing the bite she had taken her brow lifted when Amelia mumbled something about there being a lot of people. Picking up her glass of water she looked around and shrugged as she took a sip. "Well, it is dinner," she said before taking a sip. Shrugging she set the glass back down and looked at them. "Damn how long has it been since you like sat down with people?" she asked before shoveling another bite in her mouth.

The girl half chewed it before swallowing it down. "Cause this is the part we're supposed to make small talk. You know, hey, how are you, excited about the party tonight type of stuff. Or hey, thanks for asking, loved to join ya. It's easy, really. Try it," she said before shoveling another bite into her mouth and grinning at them. Her cheeks puffing slightly from the size of the bite she took. Nikki tilted her head to the side and crossed her eyes before giggling and swallowing the bite. "That is unless you're like the Seniors table over there and have developed old man telepathy," she said motioning with her fork over towards where Gunny and Wayne and some of the older men were sitting just exchanging glances.

Nikki had just shoved another bite full in her mouth when Maddog came over and told her they needed the stuff down at the beach. "Shit, right, two more bites and I'll be down there," she said as he started to walk off. Swallowing her food she stuck out her tongue towards the man's back before taking another bite and looking back at the girls she was sitting with.

Evelina Lucas
Location: The In-Between: Evelina's Cave
Skills: N/A

Sitting there staring at the fire, the tip of the blade being turned over slowly, Evelina seemed lost in thought. She wasn't thinking on what was happening, or the words that had been spoken. She was thinking on that last life. That last choice made. What had drawn her away in the first place. While Evelina had been stuck in what she was calling the In-Between for hundreds and hundreds of years, for Faith it had actually been less than a week since the last time she saw Evelina. Less time than Evelina had instructed them to just rest and think on the lessons. Evelina had not even been gone twenty-four hours when people had decided, against her instructions, to look for her. For the rest of those she left behind, it had only been two days. Things Evelina didn't know or there perhaps would have been a long speech about people listening. Though now that she felt what she felt, pulling at her, she knew it didn't matter. They all would have wound up here eventually.

Yet, one wasn't. More than one. Why was that? Still it was not something that Evelina was thinking on. She was thinking on that walk in the woods. When the rain came down. The woman who had drawn her there. The talk they had had. It had been a different experience for her than others she had dealt with in the past. This felt like the last time and like the first, woven together. She had to give the woman this, she made a hell of a choice. When given two choices she found a third. That was unexpected. What happened to her? Did she find what she was searching for? Evelina was not sure but she hoped she did. Just to know that perhaps for some there were more than two options changed everything. If it only changed the path of one, it was something new and different. Something she had not had in centuries. She didn't question the how's. Usually when those questions were answered it either took away from something or didn't change anything. Though, she would have to thank another eventually, if she ever saw her again, for the favor granted, if she was able.

Time passed and Evelina was still lost in thought, or at least it seemed that way. Until she finally blinked and looked over towards Faith, giving her a small smile before putting her knife away. "If you were given the choice, would you not have died? Continued living where you were?" she asked as she draped her arms over her knees. "Or would you have still chosen to be what you are? If there had been another way?" Whether or not the question had a purpose was up for debate but it seemed that Evelina was genuinely interested in whether or not Faith would have chosen to go back to a life of fighting Walkers or if she would have still chosen to be caught in-between life and death. And now, caught in-between life and death in a space she called the In-Between.

Kyra Altham
Location: DtB Fade Between
Skills: Alertness

Walking, it was what she did. From one place to another, but usually with no destination in mind. One place did not become another place until she reached it. Only then did she know that was where she was going and even then it wasn't the destination. There was no destination. There never was. At least there hadn't been in a very long time. She couldn't be bothered to think about just how long it had been. It really didn't matter. Kyra had learned a long time ago that most things, in the end, didn't matter. Yet right then she did have a destination, if only a temporary one, and only because they seemed to feel the need for cover. Sure she could have said something to counter their reasoning but why bother. People asked questions, and much of the time argued the answer because it wasn't what they wanted to hear.

Yet she kept a eye out and an ear on her surroundings. One would be foolish not to out there, granted one would be a fool to ever let their guard down. Turning her head slightly at Roberts mentioning of Ash. "Not really," she commented before looking back ahead. She didn't expand on it. The woman didn't seem to possess the gift of gab and if she did, she wasn't feeling like using it right then. Now while Ceasar might want to find out about the lands around him, tracking won't do that. Tracking if for following people or animals, it doesn't tell you about land or flora or fauna more than a person or this animal passed this way. Now, as far as anything being around or passing, no Caesar isn't seeing anything with his tracking. Either nothing had passed by recently or at least nothing that walked. There were no tracks to follow.

At the offering of the tequila, whatever that was, Kyra took the container and unscrewed the top of it. Bringing it to her nose she sniffed. Making a face she held it down to Ash, who in turn sniffed and drew back as well. "Smells like a tavern," she said. Taking the cap she screwed it back on. Turning it over to look at it before holding it back out. "Stay sharp." It was decent advice, probably rather obvious. The walking continued until they got closer to the cliff face. It didn't look like there was anywhere to go into, like a cave or anything. Walking over to the wall face of the cliff, Kyra turned and sat down with her back to the wall. "Best for three days." Ash jogged over to Kyra and sat down next to her panting slightly.
