Bludhaven Chronicles

@Aintitfun1997 - I don't have everything planned out, no, but some of it. However I am always open to suggestions!! Send me a PM! This RP is as much mine as it is yours. =D

Bludhaven Chronicles

Awesome posts so far!! Once I get a little more settled, I wanted to start some sort of chat room for us all. I remember an RP I was in where we'd play "scenario," which was just a "what would your character do in [x] situation," like being trapped in Walmart overnight. xD It really brought us together, mostly.. do you guys have any thoughts? Any ideas for an easy chat room? Or just use skype? Let me know! In either case, I'm excited for this!! <3

Eventually, everyone filed into the back room with Chris being the last to enter the room. There wasn't much to it honestly, it just seemed to be an empty room with a simple stage at the front, though one could be thankful for the clear lighting - it was be impossible for even the legendary Batman to have sneaked in without being noticed. Glancing around, Rose looked at the handful of heroes that had been hand picked for whatever.. 'this' was, mostly noting the apparent demoness, the really cute pale girl, and Chris himself who had complimented her hair - to which she had smiled for - she adored her own hair.

However as everyone stood there examining each other and studying, there was a sound of someone clearing their throat. Firefly snapped her eyes to the stage where the mysterious robed woman stood, causing her to blink a couple times. 'How the fuck...?' she thought to herself as the masked woman stared at them with a calmness that was certainly out of place. She didn't make them wait long though as she spoke out to the group, waving her hand as the door to the room closed gently. "You're wondering why you're here." Her tone was still patient as it was before, but she spoke with authority - it was a statement, like she knew with absolute certainty that they were all curious to some degree. It wasn't a large leap of logic to figure that out of course, but it was her tone that pierced through the air, like some sort of seer from a fantasy story.

"You've heard rumors of the mysterious darkness and how it's taking out metahumans and superheroes across the globe. More specifically the teams that have been forming. So why have I bothered gathering another group together?" The masked woman paused, giving everyone a moment to ponder on their own. "Because it'll come for you eventually... it'll come after everyone and the only way to face it is together." Causally, she walked to the end of the stage and floated down to the edge, sitting on it as she crossed her legs, folding her hands in her lap. "Of course.. you're not ready for that yet. No..." Again, she paused, glancing over the group. "You need to learn how to work together, to be a family, trust one another more than anyone else.. and to choose who will lead.."

The masked woman seemingly pondered for a moment before speaking again. "So let's start with something simple. There's a crime lord in downtown called Jacob Black who controls at least half of the city with his organized crime. There's a shipment of black market weapons coming into port tomorrow evening in pier six. Since I am only here to serve as a guide -" which the masked woman was sure to make clear with her tone, "- I'll answer any questions, but you must figure out what to do about it. Together."

So there she stayed, sitting on the end of the stage, patiently waiting to guide and to direct - but having given them all instructions to figure out what to do for themselves. Rose bit her lower lip in thought as she looked around the room, searching everyone's expressions and reactions to what the masked woman had just said. She wondered how many of them might walk out or demand answers to who she was or what you might typically expect. For herself, she was simply ready to try this thing - she figured that the robed woman was obviously powerful enough to put them all in their place if needed, so there was no point in deceiving them all just to get ambushed at the docks. Idly, she reached up and twirled her red hair in her fingers and simply kept silent, wondering what the others would do. There was no way she would volunteer for the position of leader. Though she did have a sudden thought and chose to speak up, although in a meek tone. "Um.. I can fly.. and manipulate fire, so.."

@PatrickDrummer - Wow, I was sure I had replied to you! I'm so sorry!! Yes, he's approved. ^.^ I'm going to go ahead and post, just catch up when you can. ^.^ Also post him in the character tab please! <3

@dabombjk - Sorry, I won't be replying to your character IC... I never approved of "Warden." I'm honestly inclined not to at this post. You've posted all over the character tab as if being approved and in the IC now.

@The Narrator@KaijuBaragon@MonsieurShade@Aintitfun1997@Caits@rivaan -- I'll be replying soon, though it's said @Krot decided to leave. Anyways, I'll be pulling up some music and working on it now. ^.^ Thank you all for being patient!!

Bludhaven Chronicles

Just got over my jetlag, but since I just moved in with part of my family, I decided to take today off. I am however, DEFINITELY posting tomorrow. So if anyone hasn't replied yet, you might have to catch up. As for those who decided to leave... well, sorry to hear that, but unless all the players leave, this isn't dying. Even if that happens, I'll start it up again. Just a FYI. ^.^ For those of you staying - thank you for being patient! <3

Bludhaven Chronicles

@PatrickDrummer - You never get to editing or changing the CS and to be honest, it kind of slipped my mind. I've been all over the past week or so... however if you can re-post the edited CS and everything looks good, I'll go ahead and approve the character. It's totally a bad on my part, so I'll make an exception - since we already have 8 people (which was originally my max). Hope that makes sense!

[@EVERYONE] - I might be a bit to posting sadly. Maybe this weekend? Mainly because tomorrow I fly to Arizona from South Korea - a 22 hour flight. Then I'll need a bit of recovery time on the jet lag. xD Otherwise I should be in business after that. That's the plan anyways. xD

Bludhaven Chronicles

Chapter 1: Man Behind the Curtain

Firefly zipped across the city, her wings flapping silently at high speeds as she flew over building after building. Tonight seemed quiet to the redhead as the sight of the city captured her awe. Sure it was filled with just as much crime as it was in the days of the great legends, but there was always a particular beauty to the night lights of a city - any city, but Bludhaven had it's own unique charm as well. Slowly, she slowed to a hover as she admired the distant sounds of bustling traffic and beats of night clubs and even though she preferred nature at times, this was nice to experience too.

Suddenly she heard a woman's scream coming from a nearby alley, causing her to tense up in alertness. Almost instantly gaining full speed, she dashed towards the scream, quickly seeing shadows at the end of the alleyway. One was a man, holding a switchblade while the other was a woman with purse, backing away from her assailant. Rose raised her voice, clenching her fists, "leave her alone!" Which was an interesting thing about Firefly - her voice was very feminine, making it less intimidating, but she had learned a while ago if she spat a little fire as she yelled, it usually gave a more dangerous tone to her aura.

Though as soon as she yelled and the man seemed to look back, Rose was shocked to see the shadows disappear, realizing that she hadn't actually saw anyone to begin with. The redhead got this overwhelming feeling of something being out of place, as if something didn't belong, quickly wondering if this was the rumored danger that had been killing and making other 'capes' disappearing.

She felt a hand press against her shoulder, finding herself unable to move as she watched a woman walk in front of her. Dressed in a simple red robe, red shirt, black pants and boots, the only thing unusual about her was that she wore a stylish mask. Her voice was gentle and yet wizened. "If you want to do something better for this city - to be better - than meet at The Archer, a bar in eastern downtown. It's not hard to find and you get around fast enough.. a Mr. Gannet owns it - just came into his possession. There's a hidden room in the back. Tell him the 'arrow shoots straight.' He'll understand." Walking behind her once more, Rose having kept complete alertness on the mysterious figure the entire time, she could feel herself able to move again. She spun around, but the figure was already gone, forcing her to purse her lips in thought.

Only a half hour later, Rose was quietly pushing open the door to 'The Archer,' and slipping inside the bar as she covered her wings with a simple cloak. Sure it was odd to see a woman with a cloak, but it only drew a few odd glances before people were taking more notice of her red hair than anything else. She walked up to the bar and cleared her throat before addressing Chris. "Excuse me.. but, um.. the arrow shoots straight? I mean.. don't they always?" She knew she must've sounded like an idiot, but maybe the bartender would take it as a corny, nerdy joke.

The rest of our heroes experience similar things across the city as the mysterious woman visits each one of them. Sometimes she would make sure they didn't move, as if knowing somehow they'd run away or freak out, or possibly attack her - while others she'd simply show up, give her message and disappear into the night air like a strange vision. However they were all told the same thing, except for Hoverfly, of course. Instead, she had visited him and handed over the deed to the bar, 'The Archer.' She never once explained how she got it or what happened to the owner, though if Christ were to investigate, he would learn that his boss had moved to Metropolis and bought a mansion for himself and left the deed to him instead. Explaining the secret room in the back, she told him to expect others with the given password and to wait for her once they were all gathered.

(OOC NOTE: Feel free to write up any situation on how the mysterious woman showed up for your character. Then head over to The Archer and give Hoverfly the password, while he let's people into the back room! Once everyone has 1 post up, I'll continue the story. ^.^)

@MonsieurShade - Calling him approved, but can you elaborate on what geomancy is, in this case? My only experience with it mostly in Final Fantasy Tactics. xD Also going to start working on a post. Hopefully I get it done!

Bludhaven Chronicles

Sorry @MonsieurShade - I'm packing and getting ready for the hotel now. Staying three nights and then on a 22 hour flight to USA. So! Basically, I'll be looking at the CS tonight (for me) or tomorrow when I'm going to post. Hope you can wait! =D

Bludhaven Chronicles

@dabombjk - Sorry for being slow to respond. I read it, but.. I think @Dymion's character would be better fitting - that is if the player is still around. ^.^ Other than that though, how in the world does your character know multiple languages? It's hard enough to know just two languages normally... so unless he's a genius?
