Delta Squad (Young Superheroes)

Yeah, it ain't happening again without a proper notification :X

Delta Squad (Young Superheroes)

As soon as Krait saw others coming to the room, she went dead silent. She didn't say anything for a moment, before just standing up and walking off. She didn't want to be in another part of group q&a, especially since it was as easy as this to get away from it. Walking to the room with her name on it, she went to open it only to find two sets of keys on the door and double locks. The place seemed to be at least, if not made very recently, then modified, since Krait demanded privacy and it wasn't so usual to have this kind of lock system to be part of a wooden room door. Getting inside, Krait was almost thinking of a refreshing shower before looking at her new desk, and package in there.

On top of the package, she found a note... well, more of an manual than a note, as it was filled with official noting and typing in form of the official records. Not bothering with the papers first, she just opened the package to find something she didn't expect. At first sight, it looked like a christmas decorations for masochists, with all the tubes, straps and needles in it along with a single syringe and several small bottles of some sort of substance, but it did seem to have a bit more purpose to her future than she had assumed at first look into this thing. pulling it up from the casing, it was a size of entire body... size of her body. With a sigh and a slight hint of disgust, she started to go through the paper.

It seemed like the exo skeleton project has a kick off, and this was the prototype she needed to start use from this point on. She was supposed to use it during her future sessions, either on training or missions and report any changes to her usual performance back to HQ. Finishing the quick read of the paper, she then swallowed as she looked at the needles, closing her eyes for a moment in frustration as needles was something she was far from fond of.

After ten minutes or so, Krait was already bare naked, shivering in the bathroom as she looked at the manual and the places she needed to stick the needles in. She wasn't expert in this kind of thing, but she was damned before asking someone else in her room to do this. Carefully getting the first needle in the gear, she slowly sunk it in her left antecubital, wincing ever so slightly. After that, she started to strap the wiring from the needle around the elbow so that the needle wouldn't start turning or moving uncomfortably inside her. It was a painful task, but what the manual had promised was such an upside Krait didn't even need second thoughts before starting to continue the process, slowly starting to cover the important parts of her body, sinking needle after another.

"ALL MEMBERS OF DELTA SQUAD REPORT TO THE SIMULATOR ROOM"

The sudden announcement made Krait almost slip on the cold floor on her bare feet, shouting curses out loud while trying to focus on the task that required pinpoint accuracy. "Fuck. Off..." she just muttered, before continuing her task. It wasn't like she would be walking anywhere if half of this gear hanged freely between her boy and her suit. Besides, she needed to use this gear for the training, so Krait wasn't caring if she missed the first 15 minutes or so if she would get this done first.

Packed pressure of human nature.

It was pretty much like any other day of anyone's life in the town. It was roughly 6PM, when people were starting to fill the mall. Some were there to purchase food for the weekend after the rough working hours, others were hanging out with their friends, getting started early at their upcoming night out, working on the various stores, or just spending their casual time along in the crowds.

However, in a blink of an eye, something was far from normal. no-one really knew what happened, at one second everything was there, and then it wasn't. The lights outside had turned off in sense that not even the sun managed to shine inside the windows. Just a complete black void and if it wasn't for the lights inside, rest of their lives inside would of been in complete darkness. Of course this created curiosity, anxiety, even a lot of fear of unknown as people were not sure how to deal with this phenomenon. The first most daring ones tried to venture outside only to realize that it wasn't merely dark outside, but the darkness was solid, a substance instead of being only lack of light.

Now that these people seem to be trapped inside the mall, roughly 130 of them, it is only a matter of time before someone realizes the food inside, as much as it is, Isn't going to last for so many if they 'stick together'... and that might not even be the worst kind of scene imaginable, as the appearance, as well as the affection if the dark matter outside is yet unknown.

So hi, trying a new RP since my first one around here didn't do so good. Learned from my experiences though (at least I hope I did ._. )) and trying again. This is rather freeform RP and you can play as anyone that would be fit to be in the mall at the time.

Rules:
- No godmodding, nothing against the rules of the site, all of the rather obvious stuff.
- It is a crowded mall. You're probably not walking on empty hallways at the first day of the 'quarantine'.
- You can do whatever you prefer in the RP though, in the way you can have any kind of motivation for you character. No need to play strictly good, strictly bad, you'll do whatever you feel is comfortable.
- You may kill off others, you can also get killed by others. I will be fair judge on these, but the premise is rather to the point that if someone has a knife on your throat, they are in command of your life at that moment. Be reminded though, that even the slightest form of GM in such scenes, assuming anyone would even want to be a murderer, will be stated as instant loss.
- You want to control NPC's, in form of having a group of buddies or such? Sure, PM me and we'll discuss about it. If you want it, you'll most likely get it.
- Anything over pg 13 goes to PM's. Not forbidding it from happening entirely though, in case gang wars start or such. If scenes in this category are involved, the RP'ers will play the scene, send it to me and I'll be softening the post or skipping it in literal form of the RP in IC.
- There is possibility of secrets involved. If you notice something in the area, or you hear something that others would not, even being whispered to by someone, that will be PM'd to you. You can do anything you want with the information given to you. If you folks decide to do things like these yourself, you'll need to legitimize them with me. If I haven't heard of it from you, it didn't happen, simple as that.
- Anything else? Not sure... adding rights to add more here in case needed.

CS
Name:
Age:
Appearance: you can have either image or text. I have always easier time to imagine a character with picture, but not forcing you into doing so if you prefer text entirely.
Equipment: What you had along in the mall... please be reasonable here, I mean it.
Why you're in the mall?:
Other: You can have a few trivial things here, you can have a full bio here. No need to have much stuff if you think you prefer to clear them in IC for the sake of character build, but crucial skills are needed here. Your character Isn't suddenly brawling expert if it Isn't here. If you want to keep any of these as secret, you know what to do.

You can do as many characters as you want to. However, remember more characters = more effort so I assume you'll be pulling more weight if you handle more characters.

Important to know about the building

The mall is four stories tall, involving two basement floors. There are sets of fire escapes from basement to the ground floor, as well as escalators from fourth floor to the ground floor, with elevators covering all six floors.

The lowest basement floor is for car parking, trucks to bring consumables to the stores, storage and generators. Generators are working properly so far and are keeping everything on in the mall, though the matter has blocked all communication from internet to cell phones.

the upper basement floor is for lockers to the worker of the place, including showers and toilets. It also has few break rooms and storage for the company who deals with the malls maintenance from fixing to cleaning.

Ground floor is where the doors to outside are. There's grocery stores, lots of different places to eat, kiosks, liquor store and a barber.

Second floor has stores for electronics, clothing, kids toys, sports gear and one of those stores that has all form of cheap things form house ware to more or less useful gadgets.

Third floor has stores for video games, piercing and tattoos, music, youngster clothing and few vending machines. It also has a small bowling alley with a bar.

Fourth floor has a club 'Nightcrown' that is the usual place to go for the average guy or girl on early to mid 20's.

Willow Greyson

5

Some pieces of candy, bobby pins in her hair, and a small stuffed rabbit named Mimzy that she takes practically everywhere.

Their parents were fighting again and so, to spare Willow the pain of seeing her mother and father scream and throw things at each other, he took her to the mall for the day.

Willow is a very sweet and kind individual. She puts everyone else's needs before her own and she will go out of her way to help people. She generally is very passive and keeps out of arguments though she will, at times, leap into one to try and calm everyone down; without any regards to her own safety. She is very shy to people she doesn't know but once she gets to know someone she is very bubbly and gentle. She hardly ever yells or raises her voice and in the midst of violence she tends to flee to somewhere quiet. She enjoys reading or drawing and does so to calm down, though she hardly ever shows her drawings to anyone. Willow is very insecure and is full of doubts about herself. She gets flustered very easily and tends to stutter and blush before she finally just gives up and hides her face. She hates making people upset and tends to become upset herself, and in most cases crying and apologizing.

William Greyson

17

He has a cell phone, his wallet, car keys, and a switchblade he keeps hidden.

William took his sister Willow to the mall because their parents were fighting again like usual.

William is a cold, stoic, and arrogant person who shows little regard to the lives of those around him. He is, more often than not, willing to leave those who slow him down behind. Despite his words, William frequently saves those around him, and even puts his own life at risk, though he does it grudgingly and openly complains. William is more or less emotionless; only anger, annoyance, and dissatisfaction showing on his face, though, rarely he will reveal a small smile but only to his sister and only if they are alone. William has a very inquiring mind when there is something he cares about, but at the same time, he has almost no tenacity of purpose. If he becomes interested in something else, he will arbitrarily turn his back on what he's doing. However, despite all of this, the one and only person he will show kindness to is his younger sister Willow. He is fiercely protective of her and he will literally do anything to keep her safe. He loathes anyone touching her and is very liable to break a few hands and bruise some jaws if need be.

It keeps people from getting confused if posts stop flowing in from someone.

Yeah, especially special someone who was chatting with my character until she turned into a dead husk for over two weeks... sorry v.v

I feel like an ass for waiting almost a week to post a two liner

Well, that ain't AS bad as some... sorry for the abrupt exit, had to get some room to myself. Seems though that the plot hasn't moved much, so is it okay if I try to get myself a proper cut and paste back into the scene?

Delta Squad (Young Superheroes)

"...Fair enough..." Krait answered, shrugging as the heavy sigh of Jaqcue was followed by awkward silence. "Not much of a talker huh? Not sure if I should be even chatting with you, but when it comes in between aliens and criminals, seems like the bars really gotten this low." she continued, looking away to look like she was observing the room. "So... you've... done anything like this before?" she tried to find a topic. "I mean, you've done anything in your beast mode before joining into the group, or been just keeping it hidden?".

Delta Squad (Young Superheroes)

"Well, so much of your plans. I doubt they are welcoming us here so badly they would keep sturdier drinks anywhere near." she said, crossing her leg as she then sucked the bottle empty with her straw. She was supposed to take a glass of water if she got thirsty, but seemed like the beer would do the trick just fine. "But anyway, backfiring? You could ask Shadowstep about backfiring... oh yeah, he probably got crushed under a rock or something." she continued. "We can't deal with 'something suitable' when it comes to this job, there's way too much at stake to not make every part of our group as best as possible".

Delta Squad (Young Superheroes)

"Alright then, what's the next step in your drunking scheme?" Krait asked, keeping a small pause. "Look, the little truth and dare went by, You're just first to know that I'll deal my own way with my own things. Let's just forget that whole scene." Krait continued, before starting to suck on the straw again. "Man I needed a drink, before my head was going to collapse on itself. I swear this group is going to drive me insane sooner or later... Nic being a leader is a real scam if you ask me. Didn't look like he had ANY experience or other qualifiers on the field." Krait suddenly changed the topic.
