If you're still alive, you're not struggling with depression. Depression is struggling with you.

I couldn't pick one joke for that factoid, so enjoy both :P


Morgan: Joke's on you, lady! I am not interested in women! Or anyone for the matter!
My one and only true love is candy and candy only.





@Pyxis I appreciate all of his really powerful spells only working on people near death's door, but that also raises the question of what death's door is considering all the healing factors running about. If they're cut in half and should by dead by all logic but are healing slowly, is that death's door still? Also what happens to the stolen souls? Do they just sit in an extra-dimensional box?


Each soul gem has it's only pocket dimension, big enough to fit a soul in. Morgan has a limited soul and once he consumes a soul the soul gem, or jolly rancher, would be emptied and he'd be able to obtain another soul.

As for the near death thing, I would say that they would have to be very badly hurt, their internal organs damaged or not working. "Death is a condition, where the nervous system is inactive, the eyes closed, the postural muscles relaxed, and consciousness permanently suspended." Something like that.

If the person is healing, I would say there would be some kind of resistant coming from the soul trying to hold on to it's living body and the spell could not work. Depending on how badly the other person would want to live. Like for the elderly and sick, it would be easier to get their soul since their state of mind wouldn't be so intact? So if someone else is healing the person who is near death it would be easier to get that person's soul than to get someone who is actively healing themselves.

Did I explain it well? I dunnnooooo
I'll get a post up by tonight or tomorrow!

Edit:

@my Lalia Quick question, do some people already have dragons and the new recruits are getting picked? Do we decide if our characters have their dragons already?

Just wanna clear this up before I post.

LOCATION & TIME : SWAN SONGS, MONDAY EVENING
INTERACTIONS : ASSOCIATES
MENTIONS : N/A





Alejandro was a busy man. The weekdays usually started around five am in the morning with work out with his personal trainer on the rooftop of his penthouse in Central Point. The scene was quite beautiful during sunrise and the cold wind hitting his sweat covered back as his trainer, Sebastian, pushed him to do one more deadlift. At seven am, after two hours of working out, he has breakfast with his two top associates while over looking over Central Point, and it's reflection windows of the various skyscrapers around his luxury home.

Today, the younger associate, Mara, was briefing him on the business back home. Apparently, things were going so great that they had managed to buy off a few DA officers along with a few departments to keep the higherups off the family's trail. No paper trails were being left behind as well as electronic trails. According to Mara, it seemed like everything was going smoothly. His other associate, John, talked about the plan for Sol. While the flower shop had been established to launder money for their drug deals, it had been gaining quite a lot of traction with the locals. Bussiness was blooming on the legal and illegal side of things this far, and Alejnadro had yet to meet up with the boss of the underbelly of Sol.

Something that Mr. Castillo was not looking forward to doing. All the formalities that his job required sometimes got the better of him. Alejandro wasn't one to really like formal events while having small talk and sipping some fruity drinks. Instead, he would rather party all night and get drunk with a bussiness partner. That was his usual tactic to for bonds with future partners, but it looked like this one in Sol had a stick up his ass.

Whatever, Alejandro just needed to make sure everything went smoothly for the business.

"Well, looks like that is all for now," Alejandro looked over at Mara then John who swiftly nodded once. "Okay, I'll be dropping by the flower shopto make sure everyone is doing their job then head off. I'd like to have the day to myself, so please do keep your distance today." Mara and Job served as his bodyguards just as his associates.

Mara was a short woman from Chinese-Russian decent. She had a black bob that framed her face and wore black rimmed glasses. She tened to dress more sporty than formal and always carried a few knives with her. On the other hand, John was a tall man with wide shoulders and a buzzed haircut. He wore black or dark gray tuxedos, no matter the occasion and always carried a gun with him. Both of them had been with Alejandro for a few years now, and they seemed to get along with him better than the last two associates.

"We'll keep our distance," Mara pulled out her phone and tapped away quickly. "Will you be on your personal car today, sir?"

"Yes, I've been here for two weeks now and I have yet to see much of this beautiful city. I would love to explore." There were quite a few places Alejandro wanted to stop by. There was a store, Swan Songs, that seemed to have a wide collection of records that the man was keen to browsing. Maybe he would be able to get his hands on some albums he had yet to add to his collection.

"Very well, we will text you if anything comes up, sir." Mara glanced up at John as he nodded in agreement.

"Please do, I don't want to loose an opportunity, even on my days off." With that, Alejandro stood up and left the dinning table to get ready for his day.




The visit to the flower shop was a short one. By the time Alejandro arrived there the store was filled with hipster looking young adults and a few elderly looking to buy. He stayed a bit to give a hand to the workers while noting the boxes leveled "flowers" being dropped off at the back of the building. It was perfect, the shop needed daily deliveries so it wouldn't arouse any suspicion when random large packages arrived to the store.

By the time Alejandro had finished helping out it was already evening, so he made his way to Swan Songs. He parked his Bentley near the store and walked towards the surprisingly busy looking store. To his surprise, Swan Songs was having some sort of event.

There were quite a lot of people flooding one side of the store. Great. Alejandro's nice visit to the shop was now ruined by a bunch of fans shouting about some band. Whatever, some fangirls weren't gonna stop Alejandro from looking for a few missing albums he wanted for his collection.

Alejandro was doing just fine when people began to sing. It would have been fine if the one singing was actually good at it. Now all that Alejandro wanted to do was get his albums and get the hell out of the store.

Or show these amateurs what it meant to sing. "Nah, that'e be stupid and John would probably send a video to mother and she'd never shut up about it." Alejandro said to himself as he tried to ignore the singing and continued his search.
Might chnge stuff up a bit, I'm just waiting on someone but I finally added some backstory

@Stern Algorithm

Nothing to worry about! Enjoy your family time dude
I had planned my ex's mom wedding for her. I knew about photography and wedding planning since I want to do that professionally, but like I pretty much planned it for her. I even helped her pick out her dress, her flowers, her makeup and shoes. She was happy to have me help her. Told me that she wouldn't have been able to do her whole wedding without me. Hell, I even helped her get dress and get a discount on the photography. The day of the event she even thanked me in front of everyone during the toast.

I thought we were close. I would help her cook when I would go over for dinner. We would tease my ex and even shop together.

But not once did she acknowledge me as her daughter's long term girlfriend. Not once did she introduce me as " my daughter's girlfriend" or even acknowledge that we were together. I hadn't notice it at the time becauae I was just happy to be accepted by my ex's family.

When her daughter and I split after 3 years, almost 4, a mutual friend said that her mom had said something along the words of "oh now you can marry a guy and give my grandchildren and live a normal life"

Like fucking wow. Sure, I don't know the whole story, but like fucking wooooow.

@Clever Hans

I see, I do want to create a lady who's gifts revolve around water. She would be able to manipulate water, much like water benders from Avatar. Just that she would have limitations and wouldn't have much experience.

She'd only know some basic moves, like how to freeze water or move it around. Just enough to make her one of those "core members"
