Bio

Hi there. Name's Ryan. I've been off and on role-playing for a long time now and decided to get back on the saddle, so to speak. I am a big lover of anime-based RPs, especially Naruto, but I will basically join anything that sounds interesting. So yeah, that's me! Adios for now.

Karram had enjoyed the ride to the bunker. It was the first peaceful experience he'd had since joining this band of supernaturals. But it ended prematurely once they arrived. He and Gray dragged their vampire prisoner inside and Beth tied her to a chair. Then she was stored away for safe keeping, with Gray hungrily wanting to stand guard. However, as Karram returned to the main room, he noted the uncomfortable tension in the air and heard talk of needed leadership. And of course he agreed, but the question was more so who it should be to lead them. Mention of the fairy court made Karram's elongated ears perk up. And before he could speak on the matter, the fairy queen was dismissed as distrustful... this made Karram grit his teeth a bit, but he quelled his desire to shout down her throat. Despite his personal history and the misconception towards faerie loyalty, Karram and his people were a very tightly knit group and this went doubly for the Faerie Queen. A couple subtle breaths and Karram was able to return to a state of diplomacy. It was at this time that several name were thrown into the pot, so to speak.

Karram pondered the options carefully. Tony was the initial person to gather them all up, and he was a born leader. But like he said, he had moments in which his mental state could be easily compromised. And Flint... well, Flint was an intelligent sorcerer but his general laze and attitude would make for an unfit leader overall. And his near-drunken monologue just proved the point further. But then Rikive was nominated by Autumn. Karram's brow lifted slightly at the thought; she had just dissed his Queen, but her battle prowess, experience and courage were definitely qualities that fit the bill.

"I vote Rikive. She has a good balance of qualities that make her as perfect a candidate as we're going to get in this team. And obviously she doesn't have to go it alone; she can make the decisions and organize and command our 'ranks', but delegate duties she cannot fulfill to those in the group who better fit the scenario. And for the record," he darted a stern look at Rikive, "My Queen is not untrustworthy."

Karram felt better getting that last part off his chest. It may have been an awkward summation to make after his more than diplomatic speech on behalf of the very person that mentioned his queen, but he shrugged off the thought and turned to check on the vampire once more. His demeanor had once again changed back to carefree. He waved back at the group as he headed for the vamp, "But obviously I'm not the only vote that counts."
No biggie. Flint punched Parry in the face.


Wow that went over my head. I thought you meant irl, haha. :)
Sounds good, thanks for the update.
Here as well.

Still here (with a broken nose).


What happened? :(
Hope that works in moving us along. :)
Karram was surprised to see the vampire lunge for Gray, and even more so that the attempt succeeded in bringing him down. The syringe toppled from his hand along with the bag, but he was all too quick to act. Karram heard several shots fire from within the scuffle before he even had the chance to move. Then, as Karram ran closer grabbing up his dagger, he noticed Gray push her off and grab a metal spike from the bag. Karram rushed over, throwing his dagger accurately into her left thigh before rolling to swiftly pick up the syringe. Sheathing his blade, Karram switched his approach and simply attempted to kick their vampire friend square in the face, with the intention of allowing Gray the opportunity to strike in which Karram could deliver the decisive blow: the concoction contained in the syringe, whatever it may be. Seamless timing would be required, for the vampire's reflexes were definitely faster than theirs. And as usual with this group, the pair didn't really have a well-thought-out plan; but rather a stream of quick glances to signal the conjoined attack.

Kick. Metal spike. Syringe. Sleep magic. Detain.

And so, Karram and Gray executed their respective moves and hoped for the best. Karram used one hand to deliver the syringe to her arm and the other to gently touch her forehead while mouthing his faerie incantation of sleep. Then he quickly backed off and watched in anticipation for things to kick in, all the while placing a hand on the hilt of Oakbane. If the strange concoction wasn't enough to bring her down for the trip back to the bunker, then Karram's magical touch should act as the final component in finally knocking her out. His magic was not as powerful as some of his more experienced relatives, but it still packed a punch. This has got to work, he thought.
And I suppose I'll post after him for continuity's sake.
Could any aspect of this mission go as planned? The thought made Karram's head ache like before. The winged angel version of Parael was flying around wielding god knows what kind of mystical blade, Flint and Tony were down for the count, and now the vampire hostage was on the run. Karram wanted to face-palm but felt it better to tag along with Beth and Gray as they pursued their desired target. The vampire was skilled and experienced. But Karram calculated that the three of them together would be enough to capture her, so long as no additional surprises sprang out of nowhere.

Karram watched as Beth manipulated trash cans and bottles and glass pieces, hurling them at the roof runner with great precision. Then she yelled at Gray and sent him flying onto a rooftop nearer to their target. "I'll back him up!" Karram spread his ethereal wings and zipped past Beth heading upward to assist Gray as he landed. By darting to the vampire's rear, he and Gray would have her flanked. As he flew, he drew his dagger and prepared to throw it to the side of the vamp's feet to hopefully halt her from changing course.

With that, he reached the target and aimed the dagger at her feet. He stopped on a dime, hovering a few feet back from her. Karram noted a nearby tree on the street corner at the end of the rooftop. Could be a useful tactic if she attempts to run again... he thought to himself before turning his attention back to the female vampire. His sword was drawn still and he wore a determined expression as he stared at her back.

"Why don't you stop running, okay?" Karram could see Gray was still holding onto the mystery bag of goodies. Hopefully something in there was strong enough to put their vampire friend here down for a bit. If not, Karram may have to delve into his repertoire of sleep-inducing magic and see if that works.
Hey all, been working my butt off this weekend, but tomorrow I'm finally off so I can get back into the action. Sorry bout that! Heh.
Karram watched as Beth took the object from Flint's possession and began escorting their new vampire friend to the van nearby. Karram followed at a quick pace, keeping an eye out for any danger up ahead. But as usual, things never go as planned. Beth noticed before he did, but her expression caused Karram to look back. Flint was down and Tony was shot. Fucking fuck... Karram thought.

"Get them out of here!" Beth shouted at Karram. Karram noted Autumn heading that way as well. But he didn't hesitate. Wings spread again, he darted through the bastards in the club and landed near Flint and Tony just as Autumn reached them as well. He nodded at her as she grabbed them up. Karram slammed the ground, causing several root systems to split through the floor and ensnare two vampire attackers going after Autumn and her baggage. Karram backpedaled from there, covering Autumn's back as she ran towards the vehicles outside.

Of course that's when he witnessed a shining winged Parry slicing through thralls and vamps like butter screaming some nonsense about thriller...? Karram was happy he was okay and totally... well... un-surprised to see him acting in this fashion.
