Bio

Well, I USED to have a bio. Site keeps changing and it goes poof each time.

And there you go, found a way to get Troy noticed.
“Occult club?” Diane looked dubious. “I wasn’t aware of an Occult club. I’m a little surprised the school would tolerate it - not that they could win a legal battle to have one. I mean, they have a club for Christian Athletes. And every club has to have a sponsor… Or is your club not exactly on the approved list?”

Diane was unlike these girls. She had never cast a ritual to unlock her power. She hadn’t even looked up a ritual. Oh she had read about Wicca. But she didn’t take it seriously. She half wondered if they did.

“What exactly do you mean by occult? Astrology? Alchemy? Spiritualism? Theosophy? Hermetics? New Age? Paganism? I mean, your group is small - small enough to be just a tiny coven. If it is just Wicca, why not call it that?” She glanced around. “Then again, Bible Belt. Still, the word Occult isn’t much better. Personally I think school is a horrible place to practice the Craft. I think you said, open mind. Wouldn’t a thousand unbelieving students put a damper on things?”

She glanced around the table at the other girls. Sam struck her as a crystal weenie or a groupie. Jessica seemed intelligent. She had seen the girl somewhere before. Oh! Yes. Boys. She had been hanging around the science building and had some of the more intelligent guys drooling. Diane experienced a moment of humor. She wondered if the girl had any idea. Ash, however, had a very different look to her. She was used to the sort of speech Diane had just given.

“Ash, you are Wiccan.” It wasn’t a guess. “Sorry for the patronizing attitude. And no, I am not. Honestly, I don’t really believe in magic. But I had done some very heavy research into magic. I even learned a few archaic language forms, like Middle Irish, a bit of Middle English, Latin, Greek, and such.” She looked thoughtful. “Actually, if you guys seriously know your stuff, I might be interested. But understand I’d be more the outsider looking in. If I say something wrong, correct me. Is the tall guy in your group? He’s wiccan too. The one likely taking the shop class.” She rolled her eyes in Troy’s direction. “The hungry looking one who looks like someone should find a Forever Home for and feed, scratch his belly or something.”

“Diane.” Diane nodded politely at Sam, stabbing a few more potatoes and trying to scarf them down in between breaths. The girl ate like she was in boot camp. Misfit? Was she? Mmm .. maybe. Okay, it was fair enough. She looked down. Mom cooks great. Me, I burn water. Really. I set off all the smoke alarms in the house, turned the bottom of the pan literally glowing red hot and the meat I was preheating to ash.

Then in came Ash. “Video?” Diane looked confused. “Which one? Oh wait, you must mean Sarah’s thing. Yes, she started that. She made an alt account thinking she can’t get caught. I haven’t … handled it yet. Karma is a bitch. Her boyfriend, Martin, he and his friend are the ones who dumped the garbage in my guitar. I can prove it. Sarah knows it. I sort of blackmailed her before we went to see the Dean. I’m not done with any of them. But Karma takes time. Patience is everything.”

She paused. “Uhm … names … “ she pointed at Sam .. “Ssss .. don’t tell me. Sammm. Wait … Sam. I’m really bad with names. She looked at Ash. She shook her head trying to strain her memory. Finally she gave up. Truth was, Ash hadn’t said her name yet.

She turned to Jessica. “Jessica. You just said it. I need to write these down or I will never remember them.” She flipped her laptop open and booted it up in seconds. But unlocking it too a dual biometric security - thumbprint and retinal. She pulled a small digital camera out of her purse and stood up and snapped a quick shot, sat down and the image popped up on her screen. She tapped at the screen and the images separated. What looked like torn pieces of paper appeared at the bottom of each photo. Then she pulled out a stylus and started writing in calligraphy each name below the image.

“There, now I’ll never forget.”

She closed the photos down and the desktop came back up with a scene from the new Heather Daniels movie. Heather Daniels was the next JK Rowling and had written two out of three books of a trilogy. The first book had become a major hit. It was a fantasy tale about Earth being invaded by a fantasy realm in 1870. Earth began the war with no comprehension of real magic or how to fight it. In book one they were losing badly.

She shut the laptop down and put it away so she could finish eating. She glanced up between bites. “So .. St-t-t .. Keeler something. What happened?”

Yeah, common misunderstanding .. thanks to Hollywood. What Reusable said ... witch is used for both male and female. LOL, with a name like Troy ... how about Trojan Man?
Going to grab some sleep soon. Also, going to let Vrani post next. And maybe Reusable can get something in the character section.
And as the three main coven members are ready, feel free to spot Diane, discuss her, whether and how to approach, etc.
@Virani Looks good, just needs to be in the Character tab.
Well, first let's get the characters to meet and activate powers, maybe play with them a little (not necessarily smart). Just in doing that we may end up with some plots.

LOL, my Ex was wiccan. She lied before we got married. In fact she waited almost 2 years to tell me AFTER we were married. Very unhealthy choice on her part. But I took it well enough and asked to attend some of her functions - mainly to understand her faith. None of the sacred events, just larger functions ... like Yule ... holidays. I have been in just about every kind of church you have heard of. Far as I was concerned ... any religion that didn't practice death and destruction to all civilization was fine by me. It's all about respect.

Yeah, I see auras. (I have no clue what the colors mean.) I'm a precog and postcog. And I got banned from being anywhere near my friends playing board games like Monopoly as dice acted funny every time I came around. The best one was when my wife was adding hotels to Boardwalk ... and I asked who was playing the race car. The guy looked up and I winced and said "Sorry." He landed on Boardwalk the next roll.

Anyways .. to answer, that's fine.
Grr .. I hate auto spelling. Sight instead of site. Gah.

Anyways ... made a 1st post to introduce Diane. No rush for first responses. I figure the ladies would want to approach Diane as a group - so that would mean waiting for Vrani to make the 4th witch. That will give Reusable a little more time as well.
