Ha, touche.

Chronicles of the Dark: Domino City

Alright, I left my post pretty open so that anyone can interact with Leila if they wish.

Chronicles of the Dark: Domino City

Leila

It had been roughly 45 minutes since her arrival at the diner, yet Leila had been lucky enough to avoid any MPs up to this point. She was well aware of the fact that her luck would eventually run out though, and with that thought in mind, she paid for her drink before sliding out of the booth. She was out of the door in a matter of seconds, not even bothering to wave her goodbyes to the waitress passing by. The exit was adjacent to her booth, something Leila always planned in advance in order to make for a quicker escape if the situation just happened to turn sour.

Once outside, Leila relaxed a little as she enjoyed the subtle gust of wind that welcomed her out into the street. It had been a relatively quiet day, at least on her side of the neighborhood, so Leila let down her hair and turned on her playlist to drown out the everyday city noises. Without giving much thought to who-or what-might intercept her, she let her thoughts drift to the upcoming dinner plans she had with a guy she had just met not too long ago.

@Lord Coake

If it's needed, will you assign an NPC to be Alexandra's romantic partner, or do I have to take care of it myself?

Alexandra

Name: Alexandra Ivanov

Age: 24

Gender: Female

Appearance: Alexandra is tall and slim, measuring 5'8 and weighing 130 lbs. She has light-brown hair and blue eyes. Unbeknownst to many, she has a scar running from the center of her back down to just above her left hipbone.

Visual Description

Clothing: Typically, Alexandra can be seen wearing a form-fitting dress which ends just around knee level. She also wears nice shoes and gloves to finish off the look.

Possessions: A small enamel brass dagger with orange, green, and maroon decorative figures on the handle and sheath.

Current Wealth: $10.00

Personality: Alexandra is a bit of a hot head. Due to some past traumatic experience, she developed what in the future would be known as Adjustment Disorder and her mood shifts rather quickly, sometimes leading her to blow various situations out of proportion. She is impatient and often blames everyone but herself for whatever misfortune comes her way.

On the flip side, she is for the most part a rational and fair individual and will always favor whatever side she believes is right, despite of personal differences.

History: Alexandra was born into a family who wasn't the wealthiest around town, but they surely weren't the poorest. She's the youngest of three siblings, and it's a given that her two older brothers have always been overprotective of her growing up. Their father, Nikolai, started a small business which over time took off and expanded to something beyond what he had imagined. Naturally, with such an escalation in popularity, Nikolai made some enemies. Unfortunately, it was Alexandra that suffered the most as she was the one kidnapped at the tender age of 14. There was 5 to 6 months of torture, isolation, and other cruelties practiced against her before she was finally rescued. This event led the family move out of Moscow, where they were all originally from, and it was some time later when they finally found themselves in the United States.

Unfortunately, starting over in a new land wasn't easy for anyone. Instead of living a peaceful life like they had hoped, business for the family on this side of the world was filled with nothing but murder and theft. Nikolai and his two eldest were involved with the Slavs from early on in the game. Alexandra, of course, continued school and fully mastered English in no time, although she still had her distinctive accent. A few years later, there was a meeting that quickly turned into a disaster. Nikolai and Andrei, the middle child, were both killed. This left Alexandra, Viktor, and their mother Valeria to fend for themselves. It was during this desperate few weeks that Viktor took it upon himself to take Alexandra along with him to one of the meetings. Even though she was hesitant at first, Alexandra agreed to a trial period to see how she would adjust. Much to her delight, and her mother's dismay, she loved it. From that moment forward, she's been following her late father and brother's footsteps and hasn't looked back since.

C.O.P.S. 2031

Just waiting on Skepic to post like we agreed.

Chronicles of the Dark: Domino City

I would post tonight since I'm out of the cool down period, but I've already taken my Ambien and that wouldn't end well. Maybe tomorrow I can find someone for interaction as well.

I came across that school because a friend of mine wanted to take lessons and a year or two later I decided to take it upon myself to sign up. Only reason I stopped was because I moved, but I'm planning on moving back in a few months and most likely continuing from where I left off.

Fun fact: I took Krav Maga lessons for a year. It is as crazy (but effective) as it seems.

Alright, here is my CS. In order to be better attached to the main plot, it'd be great if someone's character would be romantically involved with mine. If not, I'm sure I can work with some NPC.
