Location: Tacoma International Airport
Interacting With: N/A
Date: March 14th

Edric still wasn't fully convinced that this was happening. As the man who had given him his letter lead him to a private jet on one of the smaller runways of Tacoma, his mind began racing. What if it's a trap? he thought, don't be an idiot. There's no "traps" in real life.He was so deep in thought, he hardly noticed that the man had stopped. The sleek black private plane lowered a set of stairs with a satisfying hiss.
As the silent man led him up the steps and into the plane, he involuntarily gasped. "There's no way this is happening".
"Sir," said the delivery man in a soft voice "You have said that for the eleventh time now, I'm a patient man. You are beginning to get on my nerves Doctor." The man had a smile on his face to show Laybourne that he was kidding. "Shall we be off to Paris now, sir?"
Edric was silent for a moment. "Well I can't see a fair reason not to," he cleared his throat "to Paris, my good man."

Psychology

Trusting to a fault* Highly intelligent * Makes friends easily * witty

Sexuality: Straight
Relationship Status: Single
Personality: Edric sees the best in people. This singular trait has given him the ability to make friends at an almost superhuman rate. He’s trusting to a fault, a trait that has made him a great psychiatrist, where establishing trust between you and the patient is crucial. Despite the constant stress of his job, he loves helping people and is quite worried about how his paitients are faring while he is away.
Edric has a sharp wit and heartily enjoys a good laugh. He also finds reality to be a bit mundane, which has lead him to be an avid fan of fantasy novels, games, and films. He is an optimist who tends to view the bright side of any situation. However, this constant idealism has led to him being crushed everytime he fails. This has lead him to develop a crippling fear of failure.

History

A Memory: It was midnight when he got the call. He saw that it was from one of his patients, a man with clinical depression, and smiled wearily. Despite being exhausted, he never passed up an opportunity to help someone. He answered to the crying voice of the man’s wife telling him that the man had hung himself. He Stayed up all night, sometimes crying, sometimes screaming. When he woke in the morning after an hour of sleep, he realised he could dwell on it no longer, he had people to help, hopefully lives to save.
History: Edric was born to middle-class parents in Bathgate, England. He lived a fairly stable early life, picking up his mother’s sharp wit and his father’s intellect. He graduated Valedictorian from his school. He then moved out of the country to study at UC Berkeley in the United States.
He studied hard, earning his doctorate after seven years. He became a citizen of the United States and moved to Seattle. In Seattle, he became a semi-famous Psychiatrist. He also wrote under the pseudonym “Evan Tiesman”, releasing two short stories and a novel to moderate success. As he was beginning to think about quitting his psychiatry to focus on writing full time, one of his patients died. Blaming himself for not paying enough attention to his work as a psychiatrist, he took an indefinite hiatus from writing.
He heard of the drawing for tickets aboard the Orient Express while watching the news after a late night of work. He paid little attention at the time, but as work generated more and more stress, the idea of riding the Orient Express sounded more and more appealing. He received the package at the supermarket while shopping for groceries. He immediately got two friends in the psychiatry business to cover his patients for two weeks and left for Europe.

The Lonely Tavern (Open to all)

Once the Knight had left, the room was silent. I looked at my hands and realized the I was shaking. Toom much magic in such a short amount of time. "We might need to figure out the bunking situation. I don't know how many rooms there are, but I doubt there's one for each of us." I dematerialized the glasses as well as the broom. I kept the sword in existence though, I was proud of that thing. "Whoever wants to bunk with me can, I'm heading to bed now." I got halfway up the stairs before I succumbed to the exhaustion and faceplanted with an audible crack.

Omega League

@Pumpkinlord Does the Omega League have a home base? Where is it at?

The Archon Resonance (Reboot!)

Hella excited for this

The Archon Resonance (Reboot!)

I'll be back at about 3 central

Omega League

<Snipped quote by Nevix>

I'd like an actual number limit on the powers, please. The few times I use Telekinetic characters, I limit it to 10, one for each finger on the hand is a reasonable amount of puppetry (similar to the puppet corps from naruto.) I can even go 25 if you count all the major pivot points of the anatomy for more powerful telekinetic folks to compare the telekinesis to moving your body in combat.

@knighthawk

10 objects at a time works fine.

The Lonely Tavern (Open to all)

Or you could try to join and fail horribly. Like I did.

I might just watch for a while.

I did draw this tho. i.imgur.com/X8qWblF.png

@Cross

That made my day. Well I'm off to school. Be back at around 3 central time. 2 for east coasters and 1 for west coasters. I'm too lazy to translate that outside of the states
