Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

We could change the title to 'Heroes of Beacon... in-training'? :)

Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

Let's drop a dust nuke on the school.



Being serious for a sec, we've got Friday mission day coming up which should be interesting and as a side note though I do not possess enough credits to actually buy a side plot I was thinking that perhaps in a couple of weeks Beacon could have a 'Family Visitation Day'. It would help shake loose a lot of characters who up until now have kept themselves isolated *cough* Sapphire *cough*.

The Merry Men of Sherwood (Always Open!)

Not from Robin Hood or his merry men sure, but certainly from everyone else. It's not like she started out in Robin's band, she had a life before that which means that sexism is something she would have had to contend with and would most definitely be reflected in her history.

The Merry Men of Sherwood (Always Open!)

May I join as a female minstrel/bard?

@Guardian Angel Haruki

Shouldn't be a problem (of course the GM has the final word of course) but girls in medieval England generally didn't have the same privileges as men which means that there has to be a very serious reason why she have enough freedom to become a minstrel and why she would be allowed into Robin Hood's gang.

Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

I'm waiting for the music teacher to do something. Or alternatively someone else to come into the class.

The Merry Men of Sherwood (Always Open!)

Out of curiosity is anyone actually playing Robin Hood?

One more things, could I play two characters. I have a good character in mind but a good part of his back story revolves around his twin sister whom he cares for because she's sort of half mad.

Hey Media Man, how's it going?

Lucy Parker

Lucy really hated people like Blackmore. People so caught up in what they wanted to say that they didn't actually hear what was being asked of them. Clearly Blackmore had a prepared response to being asked about training that didn't involve the use of anyone's meta-abilities. However that was not what Lucy asked of him in the least. Lucy had wanted to know the sort of power training that would be given to people like her. People whose abilities weren't combative. Lucy wanted to know the sort of help that she could get for her own problems with her power because frankly there was nothing in either of the rooms that Blackmore taught in that suggested he knew anything about power control for the students like Lucy who couldn't use there powers to beat each other to a bloody pulp. It didn't really surprise Lucy though that those destructive forces were the only ones that NEST was interested in.

When the obstacle course was unveiled everything in the room got unimaginably louder. Until then the room had been full of thoughts of mild hesitation and curiousness at what was to come in this class. After Lucy acclimated to it somewhat it was bearable. Now however Lucy's head fill with the whispers and shouts of excited students ready to show off, nervous ones unsure of there ability to perform, hesitant ones quite sure they wouldn't be able to complete the course. Lucy pulled her headphones back on and dialed up the volume even louder trying to drowned it all out with a marginal degree of success.

Faced with the obstacle course Lucy abandoned her jacket on the side of the room. It would just get in her way and she could come retrieve it after class. Lucy ran for the first obstacle not wanting to be left behind. It wasn't all that difficult, well for her anyways. Hiking and rocking climbing and given Lucy a decent amount of strength though you wouldn't know it to look at her.

The obstacle was pretty basic. A rope construct ten feet high, followed by a net that had to be crawled across, then a ladder which was another fifteen feet followed by another rope construct which dropped down the full length of the previous two. It was lengthy but not difficult if handled the right way. It wasn't much different from some of the courses they had a summer camp Lucy attended when she was young.

The first hurdle, the rope ladder, Lucy climbed over with easy. Though her time suffered a little on the net Lucy continued through the course at a steady pace finally reaching the top. She could see all the students ahead of her from this vantage point and the adrenaline pumping through her system had tuned out the voices at least for the moment. Lucy scaled down the next rope ladder. She almost lost her footing about halfway down but luckily her arm became tangled in one of the rungs preventing her from falling. Lucy massaged the sore joint of her shoulder before she continued down, hopping off the ladder six feet from the bottom.

The next obstacle seemed to have a limited on the number of people allowed to attempt it at once. No doubt for safety reasons. Lucy waited at the bottom for the people ahead of her to either fail and go to the back of the line or to succeed and move on. Waiting not far from her was a girl Lucy recognized. It was the little one that Lucy had eaten dinner with the previous night. They'd not gotten a chance to exchange words then. The girl might be a child prodigy but expecting her to complete something like this at the same pace and ability as everyone else didn't seem altogether fair. Lucy took a couple steps closer to the little girl. "Do you need hand with that?" Lucy asked gesturing to the 'Slide for Life'.

Okay, whatever you like.

Yes.

@Mr Allen J

That wasn't a yes or no question.
