Hey remember when this site didn't have 3 tabs in the IC threads? Crazy.

I feel like Myriad Reality is somehow the secret glue holding this entire site together

People like to nudge aside the fact that there's a level of commitment to hosting, and joining an RP. The majority of players don't have it in either case, regardless of how interesting an idea is.

I've been gone so long that I forgot what the status bar was like. It's like coming back to an old apartment, except it's not an apartment anymore, it's just two walls and a lot of heroine addicts.

Unfortunately this RP has been at the bottom of my priority-list, so I tend to push it aside from in lieu of the stuff I'm running.

I'm also losing a bit of interest, so I might have Alex die pretty early on.
@thewizardguy I do hope so, I'd like to get your group moving as soon as possible. The convergence of RPers is already pretty far off as it is.
Can you summarize briefly what's happened from the beginning of the story thus far to current events? Otherwise I'll just read it tomorrow.


Yvette Eridal is the head of Survey group Alpha. She and 11 other CMAS mages were tasked with the survey initiative's first attempt at surveying no-mans land. This group consisted of Onweer Daybreak, Brian Tormal, Kenny the machinst, Ebenezer, and Cecil, along with a few other nameless Divers. This group has left Arcadia already, to the north, in search of an arcane node, or anything else of entrance.

The Diver group were at Divers paradise, a haven for Divers everywhere, lead by Luke Juuno. Luke took 24 Divers to sabotage the Survey initiative, including Jenso, And nobody else important because all the other Divers dropped out/were kicked from the RP.

The Divers encountered the Survey Group in Xena rock fields, a large plain full of stones of varying shapes and sizes. While attacking the Survey groups Z-ATV (A large armored vehicle) many Divers were killed, and many Junkers were killed. Eventually, after the Divers outright overpowered the CMAS mages, the Xena serpent interrupted this battle forcing the two groups to unite. They defeated it, ultimately, and agreed to stop the fighting, since Luke and his team wrecked their only means of transport.

Meanwhile, the head of the CMAS, Sydney Duvell, has been shown to have knowledge of this attack somehow, and is pleased to know that the Survey group was combating Luke and his squad. Sydney shown to have malicious intent, as well as an information source of some sort.

Back at Diver's paradise, many CMAS mages have begun attacking, attempting to topple the under-ground haven by destroying the supporting pillars and killing the people there. Luke's sister, Laura Juuno, has contacted him via long-range psychic link, forcing him to retreat from the ambush site in Xena, and defend his home. He has still not arrived. Jenso followed him. Due to Alvios' help (A very powerful Diver, and right hand to Luke Juuno) the attacking CMAS forces are being dispatched rather effectively, despite the damage they are inflicting. Tinon seems surprised that Alvios is still at the paradise.

Brian and Onweer are speaking about Yvette possibly being traitorous, Onweer has discovered that she is rather confused about the ambush they just suffered. Yvette has decided they will continue their mission anyways, to her subordinate's disappointment.

Meanwhile, Sydney has ordered Survey Group 1, the real survey group, to head south in search of nodes. It consists of 20 very adept Junkers, is far more prepared than Survey group alpha was with 3 ATVs, has quite a few very popular names within the group, and is now about to leave. This group includes 'buttercup' a steel golem PC.

Important-ish plot points:

Sydney, despite being completely un-suspicious, has been shown IC to have malicious intent. Nobody knows this IC however.

Yvette and Luke may be conspiring with each-other atm, nothing is for certain.

Tinon's behavior is suspicious.

Alvios is a badass.
@Letter Bee

SOME PEOPLE.
By the by, I may be allowing some people to create a second character, considering how many players have fallen out. The lack of players atm makes it somewhat difficult to progress, so I may also be unifying the group somehow. Just might take a shit ton of time to do reasonably.
@Lady Athena Alright.

As of now, when people begin taking too much time to post, they'll immediately go on a 5-day countdown. This will decrease to a 4-day countdown on the next offense, then 3, 2 etc.
@Necrophage Currently the only beast to have appeared is the Subterrean Nidhogg, or 'Xena Serpant' in a recent conflict with most of the cast:



There are many more to come, but I would prefer to keep the ideas I currently have in reserve. However, as I THINK I might have mentioned before, players are free to submit ideas for lore, including beastlore.

I've also just noticed the bestiary section of the OP was coded wrong, but I've fixed that. New beasts will appear there as they are introduced.
@Whimsley Going to slow the Krunk-mobile scene down a bit for Jenso and Hatman to catch up to you guys
Krunk-Mobile, Prisoner Bay

ALL UNITS... Wait a sec?


Krunklets swarmed the upper balcony from either side, squeezing their way past eachother along the walk-way's thin surface area. They had just about had it with this intruder/prisoner/asshole and were poised to attack once again, but he asked for his weapons instead of tearing through their ranked like a deranged drunkard. They all stopped in their tracks, tripping over each other and rolling clumsily along the heads of their allies. For a second, they were confused on how to approach the situation. One Krunklet rubbed the bottom half of his grated face cover with two stubby fingers and waddled towards the balcony. He hopped up a couple times until he was able to manage his upper half above the railing to look at Dr.Krink.

"Sir, he says he wants his weapons!" The little soldier shouted. Dr. Krink looked up at the soldier in utter disbelief before slamming his golden helmet with both hands repeatedly.

"DOES IT LOOK LIKE I CARE? SUBDUE HIM! DON'T LET HIM GET TO THE STORAGE BAY BELOW-DECK!" Krink shouted, once again saying just a tad too much. Of course, without delay, the swarm of little ball-men charge down the walk-way and attempted to dog-pile the pillow-starved red mage.

The Krunk-mobile itself was now only minutes away from Lord Krunk's fortress. Gee, I wonder what's in there?
Accidentally posted this in the Characters Tab!

You're good to join in. At the moment, you can do as Whimsley did, and break out of your cage at your leisure. How you were captured is up to you, but I was rather fond of Zerraf's 'I was fucking sleeping and then idfk where I was' way of doing things.
