🦄 Deeper Than The Sands - Merged With T.S.

Gonna be posted if I get time between classes, otherwise when I get home this evening.

Silver Falls

@Bishop

I'm afraid that'd be a bit too on the nose for what I'm looking for. Characters who look a bit suspicious are all fine, but for the most part, i'm looking for characters who fit in fairly normally with a reasonable, happy rural community. Think any of the characters from the first season of Twin Peaks.

The Horrors of Coventry - Concluded

Darren Andrews

---

Location: Coventry Circus Grounds, Main Tent
Interacting With: Everyone in the Circus Tent

---

Darren had been keeping his gaze focused on Seraphina, waiting for her to answer the questions he and Milicent has posed towards her, when he overheard Cecily speak up however, he was somewhat taken off guard, raising an eyebrow. As he considered the words, he didn't even get a word out, simply doing the math. He wanted to continue denying what was going on, time travel still seemed impossible to him, the fact that Seraphina now announced she was an angel - that seemed impossible. And yet, they were increasingly the best explanations that Darren had for any part of what was going on. Though if that was the case, he had been pulled forward three whole years. What had happened in that time?

Indeed, Darren had no clue what had happened in the past three years, or that he was essentially a ghost of sorts. It annoyed him how much some of the others seemed to know about the situation, Darren had always hated being the odd-one-out, and was more used to being the one with all the answers in the backwards towns and even big cities he had worked in before. Well, he wasn't in Kansas anymore. Reaching into his pocket, he tried to go online, checking news sites for any info on what had happened in the past three years, not realizing that anything he found would probably do much less than comfort the hunter, but at the very least - it was a distraction while the more magically-inclined members of their group worked, and so he could finally digest what had happened.

James Murphy

---

Location: Coventry Circus Grounds
Interacting With: Olivia Johnson, @Nallore Aloise Zamora @Morose

---

James was frankly impressed with himself for the over dramatisation of his eye roll at Aloise's explanation. While he did know a few individuals in the agency who still believed the blatant lie, James had read all of the reports he was able to find on Altsoba, and its 'quaint' little neighbour of Silver Falls, he knew that the 'biohazard' shtick was just a cover-up, and he figured this woman knew it too. "Right, let's skip past the foreplay and get right to the explanations, huh?" As that was said, he saw Aloise strike the barrier, sending him and the girls flying as he groaned, appreciating the relatively soft cloth he hit before he slammed into the ground.

He groaned softly as he pushed himself up, looking over toward Olivia, he appreciated what she had said as well before they were suddenly blown back, and he figured the two probably had not been in eachother's company too long, they still held themselves too separately to have any real sort of camaraderie. Pushing himself up to his feet, he dusted off his suit somewhat as he looked over the others, raising an eyebrow as Olivia spoke up with her suggestion of what Aloise was. "Oh, Hunters... Great, yeah, nothing goes wrong around you guys, does it?"

Post will be coming once I'm home from uni, hopefully in the next 3 hours, traffic permitting. :P

Edit: Traffic was not kind, working on a post now.

@FantasyChic
Just drop it here again and I'll check again that all's good before I accept it. ^^

@HushedWhispers@FantasyChic@Nallore@Mike73@McHaggis@Surtr@Morose@Solaris@Peridot@Fabricant451

The OOC is up! Feel free to start working on your characters, ideally we'll be starting on the 10th.

@DeadDrop@badguy28

I'll be straight up with both of you - I have no reason to believe that either of you will be genuine in this RP, and considering our previous run-ins, I wouldn't be surprised if either of you were just here to de-rail it or cause problems for me. Sorry if that's not the case, but considering our history i've got no reason to trust you, neither of you will be accepted into the rp.

Premise

On June 20th, 2016, the world almost came to an end with the beginning of the biblical apocalypse. The events which took place in Altsoba county surrounding this, tainted not only Altsoba, but the area around it as well. Though, twenty-six years before, Altsoba and the nearby county of Silver Falls were picturesque, quaint and perfect paradises in rural Washington. No evil dwelled there, and it was a wonder that one day such a horrid event would take place, focused on a place which was so peaceful.

But every small town has its secrets.

Almost exactly twenty-six years before the Altosba Massacre, the small town of Silver Falls, ten miles south of Altsoba awoke to tragedy. Hidden away in Silver Falls' Forest Park, the body of the homecoming queen - Lucy Taylor, was found, crucified on an upside-down cross. The grief and mystery spread through the small town like wildfire, with one thing being clear in everyone's mind - this was not a normal murder.

With the arrival of Donald Baker, an FBI agent sent to investigate the murder, more curious questions began to pop up - a single letter was found sewn into Lucy's tongue, 'P', and reports of strange sightings around town after dark began to spread, tales of monsters, ghosts. Quickly the town was taken over by paranoia, but most of the residents still held a strong desire to see the truth of the matter, who killed Lucy Taylor?

With only a few clues to go on, and the increasing paranoia spreading through the small town, a meeting is called at the town's community centre on June 14, it would be made clear what was known so far, and what was to take place. Dark things are on the move in Silver Falls, and unless stopped - may threaten far more than just this little rural community.

Town Details and Specifics

Business District

-P & W Diner: A small restaurant toward the center of town. The Diner is a usual stopping point for those passing through and visiting Silver Falls, as well as a common lunch stop and meeting point for locals. The diner is open from 9AM to 9PM.
-Silver Falls' Sheriff Department: The local Sheriff's department is the home to Silver Falls' rather small police force. A small compound, there is not a great deal to the station aside from a conference room, offices, and four jail cells. Most of Silver Falls' actual inmates are sent further North, to Altsoba county, for imprisonment.
-Silver Falls' Public Library: By all accounts, the library is one of the larger buildings in Silver Falls' business district. Commonly visited by students from Pacific North University, the library is particularly famous for it's collections of religious texts and mythical poems.

Residential Area

-Ben's: A dart's bar in Silver Falls', Ben's is frequented by most of the residents of Silver Falls, especially workers at the Lumber Mill. Live music is often played in the bar, and a drunken fist-fight is common on friday nights.
-
-

Locations:

• Area 1 - The Business District
• Area 2 - The Residential District
• Area 3 - Lake Knowledge Hotel
• Area 4 - Silver Falls General Hospital
• Area 5 - Silver Falls Community Center
• Area 6 - Harris Lumbermill
• Area 7 - Silver Falls Forest Park
• Area 8 - The Anderson's Mansion

Characters can live in Sunshine Apartments, in a house on either Graze, August or Lumber streets. Pacific North University is just forty minutes away from Silver Falls, so some college students do tend to move into the residential area or rent an apartment. Beyond this, temporary accommodations can be found at the Lake Knowledge Hotel.

The Lore

This RP follows the lore outlined in the guide to the abandoned hope universe. Anything outside of this thread as new additions will be outlined here. All necromantic knowledge is immensely uncommon considering that this RP takes place before the Altosba massacre, and so any characters with explicit necromantic knowledge must be discussed with the GM beforehand.

Character Sheet

Below is the character sheet required for the RP. There are a few specific requirements for backstories which is necessary for all characters - in that every character must have some degree of relation with the late Lucy Taylor. This is not to say that all characters must be locals to Silver Falls (though this is certainly encouraged), it simply means you must have a fair reason for why they may not be a local and still be associated with her.

Considering that this RP takes place before Abandoned Hope, you are more than welcome to bring in an ancestor or family member of any character you played in Abandoned Hope. However, this character can not be of any direct relation to characters in Abandoned Hope (No fathers, mothers, etc.) as there is still the chance they may die in this RP.

Relation Sheet

You will record your thoughts and opinions on other characters. To start the RP, you are required to have one relation to start with. If you're having trouble coming up with one, let me know and I can sort it out for you. There'll be periodic moments throughout the RP where I ask that you update these.

There is also a space included for your observations. Clues and points of interest can be placed there, in order to help you follow the story as it progresses. This is imperative to the RP, after all - this is a mystery.

🦄 Deeper Than The Sands - Merged With T.S.

Harry Walsh

---

Location: Qasr El Nil Barracks

---

Raising an eyebrow as he heard Aziza giggle, Harry soon chuckled himself as she explained where her home actually was, finding it rather convenient just how close it actually was to his own apartment. "Well, that's definitely closer to my place." He grinned as he watched her, the smile fading for a moment or two as she began to answer his other question. It had not initially dawned on Harry that Drahl might not have been a person, and from the way she had begun to describe him - he immediately found himself, strangely, considering the worst. A beautiful, peak example of a man was the image which came to his mind, and he almost felt jealous.

Luckily, Aziza was kind enough to clarify, and Harry couldn't help but laugh, more at his own jumping to conclusions than her description. He did pause again then, realizing he had in fact forgotten about his own horse. "That reminds me, I should probably make sure I get Roach..." He commented mostly to himself as he moved towards the door finally, glancing back over to her. No, Roach was definitely not the most endearing name for a horse, particularly a young mare as she was, but it had been the name Harry gave to each and every horse he'd ever had, and it had grown on him. "Well... Shall we, then?"

William Drake

---

Location: The Egyptian Museum

---

Moving along down the hall, William didn't notice the look on Vera's face or how hurt she had been by his words as he continued along to her office. He had never intended to cause hurt with his teasing, and indeed, remained oblivious as to how it actually stung her when he did make such comments. Indeed, William found Vera's clumsiness endearing, adorable even - though of course he'd never admit it, especially not to her. A smile split his lips momentarily as he moved into her office, glancing around it before he moved to sit down in one of the chairs, kicking his feet up onto the desk.

He glanced over as Lauren came in without Vera, raising an eyebrow briefly as he watched her, chuckling at her comment as he shrugged. "I wouldn't call it 'getting under her skin' - rather than i'd call it stating the obvious." He shrugged again, a smug grin plastered onto his face as he leaned back and looked over at her. He glanced back toward the door then, raising an eyebrow as he realized that Vera had not come yet, unaware that she had gone off to speak to some of the cafeteria staff. Sighing, he leaned back somewhat further, settling in to relax as he waited for Vera to come back. "Besides, it's not like I actually mean anything by it." He commented again, scratching at his chin for a moment.

By virtue of his position, Hamlin was lucky enough to avoid the common vibro or blaster scarring which many veterans shared, rarely leaving the cockpit of a starfighter during his time in the war. Hamlin has short, relatively unkempt dark brown hair which is usually left tousled by a helmet of one kind or another, along with a faint tan-line around his eyes from goggles worn during maintenance. He has dark blue eyes, and a relatively average athletic build, standing at 5'11". His face is grizzled with thin stubble and a sharp jawline.

Ace Pilot: With training and experience at his back, Hamlin has become adept at piloting most ships, a necessity for those often confined to the smaller, unshielded fighters of the Republic.

Quick Thinker: Hamlin has grown used to making split-second decisions, able to go over variables in his head quickly and come to a rational conclusion when time is of the essence.

Mechanics: Hamlin has always advocated that to truly be a good pilot, someone needs to know their ship in and out. Hamlin has been heavily involved in mechanics, both on starships and astromech droids, picking up more and more skills in repair and modification over his time in the war.

Lucky: While half of the reason that Hamlin has survived this long is testament to his skills and particularly his capability as a pilot, the other half is certainly pure luck. Whether he's talking his way out of a situation, firing a blaster blindly or making a risky manuever, so far, chance has been on his side.

Raised by farmers on the agricultural world of Dantooine, Hamlin spent much of his young life far from the bustling heart of the Republic and the troubles of politics and war, at most having to deal with the occasional Kath Hound pack or mercenaries. Living on a farm near to the Jedi Enclave, Hamlin spent a great deal of his young life at the enclave when his father would travel there to sell his wares or trade food to the Jedi, he was even given a degree of tutelage and schooling under a Jedi Knight by the name of Korvan Toldreyn (who mostly took on the task as an exercise in patience for himself).

These early years on Dantooine were among the first steps which pushed Hamlin to become a more compassionate and idealistic man as he grew. In a way, Hamlin grew to idolize the Jedi, finding their noble intentions and innate goodness compelling. Hamlin's parents were more than happy to have their son wandering the Enclave and interacting with the students and teachers there, knowing it to be one of the safest places on the planet at the time. It was in many of his visits as a young teenager that Hamlin began to come across occasional Republic visitors from the government and military, soon developing a great deal of patriotism along with his nurtured desire to do good.

For some years as a young adult, Hamlin took flying lessons under one of the frequent Republic visitors to Dantooine, a pilot named Ben Thano. Ben tutored Hamlin in the basics of piloting and continued to push the young adult until he was more than competent as a freighter and small-ship pilot. Along with encouragement from Ben, Hamlin eventually informed his parents that he would be leaving home to join the Republic Navy. Taken off-world by Thano, Hamlin was brought to Kuat to undergo his official training, graduating at the top of his class, less than a month before the beginning of the Mandalorian Wars.

In the earlier period of the war, Hamlin grew progressively more disenfranchised with the Jedi as they refused to involve themselves. Being involved in numerous defeats only soured Hamlin's perspective of the Jedi more, until the Revanchists intervened in the war. Serving under one of the many Jedi who flocked to Revan and Malak's cause, Hamlin became more and more skilled, rising through the ranks as he was involved in numerous battles, including the major Battle of Duro. By the time of the Battle of Malachor V, Hamlin had risen to the position of a squadron leader, leading attack sorties against Mandalorian capital ships and starfighter squadrons. However, Hamlin was the only one of his squadron to survive the battle, the rest of his squadron being destroyed either by Mandalorians or the Mass Shadow Generator which ended the war.

Hamlin was somewhat lost by the end of the Mandalorian Wars, disenfranchised with both the Jedi Order for refusing to become involved in the war, and now with the Revanchists for unleashing such devastation at Mandalore. Discharging from the Navy, Hamlin took the time to wander the galaxy, exploring the Republic freely as he had been unable to do so in his youth, more or less seeking a purpose. Unfortunately, until the Jedi Civil War, Hamlin spent much of his time in cantinas, drunk and self-loathing, until Revan returned along with his Sith Empire, and Hamlin begrudgingly chose to re-enlist.

Fighting against Revan and Malak, now the heads of the Sith Empire, brought a degree of satisfaction to Hamlin, seeming to put to rest a great deal of his struggles and regrets surrounding the Mandalorian Wars. However, he still often found himself conflicted when it came to Revan and particularly the Jedi overall, unable to understand the organization he had once believed to know in and out. By the end of the war, when Hamlin returned to Dantooine, he found himself without a home - his families farm, along with his parents, destroyed and killed during Malak's bombardment toward the end of the war.

For a time, Hamlin wandered the ruins of the Jedi Enclave, unsure what to do with himself. Eventually, after spending some time scavenging to work up sufficient credits, Hamlin found himself with little choice but to travel to Nar Shaddaa, ending up trapped as many others were in the refugee camps set up across the moon. Approached by the exchange in regards to the Jedi, Hamlin saw little choice but to take the organization up on the offer, still heavily conflicted as to his feelings on the now almost-dead order.
