How to defeat Kathryn 101: Bring her near water.

@Aquanthe

This is why she has bow she will explain it in a bit. She will also explain that she sucks with bow beyond short range...

Surely the ambush was coming, wasn't it? He looked around once more for the woodsman, or perhaps the beastly man, sneaking up on him. ~Caractacus

@dereken

But Kathryn would never set up such a thing! She is nice and friendly and is subconsciously planning multiple ways to kill almost everything she meets. Totally friendly.

....So where did this whole orange thing come from? I mean the thought of someone getting beaten with oranges is funny and all but I still wonder where it started?

Streets of Champaign- A Call Of Cthulhu based Adventure!

The sewers sucked, they were tight, they smelled like shit, and with the maintenance hatches in the area blocked it was the only way to get to the electrical grid. Hunter and his current coworker Dave were stuck in the City's underground in hopes to fix one of the main breaker systems before it causes damage that no one could fix. "This place is a total mess. I'm surprised we weren't sent down here to do some work." Dave laughed a bit before speaking. "It's on the to do list, but the people on top think we need electricity more then a working sewer system. Or at least think that it can wait longer." Hunter sighed, not sure hot to think of it other then it sucked. "At least we're not on top like Phillipe? He has to watch the truck." That was true, at least down here there was two of them, and Hunter had his pistol in his tool bag. He was pretty sure Dave had a gun as well, though until they were out of the sewers they would be useless.

Dave stopped at a door and started going through his keys. "We're here. No idea what is on the other side but be ready for anything. Remember, we fix the breaker, and we get the fuck out of here as fast as possible." Hunter acknowledged him and followed his coworker into the maintenance tunnels. The only light they had was a couple flashlights, and not very good ones at that.

It wasn't long until they reached one of the main circuit systems. The place was filled with burnt corpses. "Dear god..." Dave threw up almost instantly, Hunter stood almost frozen. He figured there had to be at least twenty people down here. "What do you think caused this? The same people who are causing all of this shit?" Dave cleared away the vomit on his face, still looking uneasy.

Eventually he shook his head no. "No... best guess would be they went down here to hide... and someone touched something they shouldn't have... that is probably why the system is so messed up right now..." Hunter grabbed his pistol from the bag, and put it in his belt. "Just in case. Let's just get this thing working again and get the fuck out of here." Dave nodded in agreement and they got to work. Despite most of the systems being broken they only needed to fix enough to prevent long term damage and to keep some form of lights on at night.

At one point Hunter stopped and looked at one of the circuits that were being replaced, it was split open, the lock in pieces on the floor. Someone forced their way in here... and hacked away at the circuit... this was intentional. "Dave!" Hunter screamed. "Dave! We Need To Leave NOW!" Hunter dropped his bags and ran looking for his Friend.

He didn't need to go far before he found Dave lifted in the air by a large man with a large sharp object. One Hunter couldn't even hope to guess what it was. "oh shit..." That was enough to get the attention of the large cloaked figure, and the others that are spread out around him.

Hunter pulled his pistol and started shooting, only getting two shots off before running like hell to the sewer hatch. He soon received returning gun fire, there was no saving Dave now, as much as he regretted it. He had one gun with 8 bullets, and he counted at least five people there, and at least one or two guns between them all. There was no winning that fight, not realistically. He heard more gunshots go off as he crawled through the tunnels. It was dark enough they couldn't see him, but he couldn't see that well either. It took him almost twice as long to get out as it took to get in.

Once out of the tunnel Hunter was met by another cloaked figure, this one not as big as the first one but still had a sharp object. The two were brought down to the sewage material as Hunter tried to find his now dropped gun, and the new person was trying to stab him. Hunter was able to pull his pistol first though and pull the trigger. Click, click, click. The gun wouldn't fire, was it jammed from the sewage? Or even just the water? It didn't matter, what mattered was the fact that Hunter was about to get stabbed.

Hunter eventually hit the figure with the grip of his pistol and shoot him off. Once he was free he held the figure down below the sewage, he would have finished the job, but the sharp object went into his arm, forcing him to let go. Instead of finishing the fight, Hunter ran as the figure tried to stand up.

Once he was on the surface, Phillipe was missing, and the truck was ransacked. "For Fuck's sake..." He said almost crying. He didn't live too far from here. It was almost Dark though. He would have to move now with out stopping to make it back. SO he did, and started walking.

I am posting now, work has had me working really late the last few days so doing anything has been a total pain. I should have a post up with in the hour!

@dereken

Forgot to tag you in the post, so Kathryn is now Interacting with Caractacus! we shall see how it goes!

Book of Aeos (V1)

Kathryn

Kathryn was given the job of Hunter. A skill she was not really good at, she was tempted to say something, but stopped. She figured it was better that people believed she could do something rather then know her weaknesses. Her bow skills were... Okay. She can point and shoot at a close range. And if lucky, medium range. "Sounds good fellow... People." And she wondered off to go Hunting. She figured it can't be that hard? There are still animals around no? Plus, her hunger definitively gave her motivation.

Almost as soon as she left the camp she noticed one of her new party members with their undead army. It... it gave her chills. But since he was alone, Kathryn figured this would be a good chance to make an ally, or at the least learn some weaknesses of her potential enemies. "So wood duty? Having fun?" She spoke calmly as she approached, trying to keep the undead unit in her line of sight. As long as she could see them all she felt she could stand her ground. She didn't see a need to, but she still needed to trust these people.

He was tall, his cloak did make her uneasy, and curious, but mostly suspicious. The undead made her worry though, most of her encounters with the Undead normally meant she was forced to fight former allies. Or kill enemies she had already killed. "I'm not sure I got your name? Mine's Kathryn. Most people I talk to though call me Kat though." She was trying to act as friendly as possible, though she kept a watchful eye on her environment, and its many characteristics.

Another World's War

Tony Moore

Shit, shit, shit, were the three words going through Tony's mind as he struggled to rush his gear on. Between the fact that his arrival to base was delayed and the fact that he is working with slight jet lag from the time shift of things on his way to base he was a bit of a mess. He was still cleared to fly though, apparently someone thought it was a good idea to clear him. Oh well, hazard pay was hazard pay.

He threw his duffle bag into the corner of the Hanger and finished putting on his flight gear. He packed his revolver in his shoulder holster and the small box of bullets into a small pocket underneath his vest. He was fighting a new enemy who had the ability to travel through portals across space, if he was going down today he was going to show these assholes what happens when you invade a planet full of people who are fed up with assholes.

Tony got to his jet, an older AV-8B Harrier jump jet. He wasn't the biggest fan of jets, but pilots were needed and he was deemed as a pretty good one. He wouldn't object to that. "That thing better be ready to go airborn, we're late and we have shootin' going on here." He started shouting at the prep crew. He got an affirmative, he was more or less ready to go.

He claimed inside the older jet, he wondered how long the thing had been sitting before his new officers decided to fix it up and get it moving again. He is hoping it wasn't too long, a sitting engine is at high risk for a lot to fail. It worked fine during the practice runs a while back, but anything could happen, he needed to think right now though.

He radioed the control tower, "This is Ranger five, call sign Ground Bird, Requesting permission to kick some ass?". Tony noticed little things as his plane took off, the change in air pressure was different then flying on earth, not by a lot but by enough that anyone looking for it would notice it. Maybe a different acceleration due to gravity? It didn't matter, what mattered was that his jet was ready to fly. "Ranger Five, joining the fight. Sorry I'm late, someone left the oven on and I am pretty sure it wasn't me."

"Yo, Ground Bird. This is Ranger Lead, you'll be our number five. Good to have you with us, and time to start earning your pay. We've got a surplus of bandits, go high and team up with Ranger Three and Four to suppress the enemy fighters. Two, stick with me and let's keep beating the bushes until the extraction bird arrives". His new squadron leader spoke. It had been years Since Tony had been in a combat situation, it was nerve racking for him.

"Wait, I have to ear my pay? I thought I was living off military benefits for the rest of my life?" He laughed as his bird took flight. "Going high, I'll be up to show you guys how it's done." The Harrier wasn't meant for speed, it was meant for easy take offs and heavy ground support. Could it still hold it's own in the sky? Hell yes.

Tony joined up with Ranger Three and Four as the fight continued, things seemed to be burning pretty well overall with out him. "Damn, you guys cleared the way in for me, does this mean you're buying drinks too?" Tony was soon able to line up his sights on his first target. One of the Yerrill fighter crafts. It wasn't moving like anything Tony had ever seen in combat before, and it was a hell of a lot faster then his own fighter, that didn't matter too much to Tony, as another one of the fighters was about ready to jump into his line of sight. With a slight adjustment he was able to turn the 25mm Gatling gun to his target, giving a whole new definition of "Oh shit" to the pilot inside the craft.

Seeing as @Remipa Awesome has been gone for four days, I think we should move on ahead and Kathryn can always reply what she did. The same for Thiara.

I'll get a post up soon.

@Aquanthe

Sorry about that.... work has sucked and I have finally gotten home before 10pm for the first time in a long time... I am getting posts up for all of my Role-plays up today!

Book of Aeos (V1)

So sorry about the compact posting, I normally try to avoid it but between being behind and the fact that we have a lot of people in one place it was hard to avoid with out ignoring a lot of things. As time goes on it should improve as things get figured out more if that makes sense?
