				This thread is meant for OOC interraction and characters.<br><br><strong>Kirei's character no.1</strong><br><br><strong>Name:</strong> Felicia Luca<br><strong>Age:</strong> 20<br><strong>Race:</strong> Human<br><strong>Gender:</strong> Female<br><br><strong>Notable Possessions:</strong> Magical gloves. Felicia was born with the ability to use her magic, but she has always needed something to channel it with, or she can't use it. Her gloves let her use her ice magic and form various kinds of magical attacks using the ice element.<br><br><strong>Appearance:</strong> Refer to this image. (http://img525.imageshack.us/img525/8359/warrior12byleevitron.jpg) Felicia is only little under five feet tall, standing at 4'9" she is very slender, weighing only at 90 lbs. Her skin and body is smooth, and her muscles aren't quite visible, she almost looks like a doll. She seems pretty fragile to the outside, and physically she sure wouldn't cause much of a threat to any other human over age of fiveteen. It's her magic that makes her competent.<br><br><strong>Biography:</strong> Felicia works for a company that builds robotics. It's one of the most powerful companies of the world, called "Microbotics." Felicia works in rather secret division that searches for artifacts and lost technology to give Microbotics advantage over other companies. His partner, Jacob has been working for the company for ten years and was aged 30 at the time they went for a mission to the cursed city. Felicia and Jacob hired mercenaries to help themselves in the quest, half of the money was paid beforehand and half of it would be paid afterward, as went the rules at Microbotics.<br><br>Felicia is quite good spirited young woman, thought she is rather naive to believe all the things Microbotics usually feed to the general public, telling they are working for the best of the planet, while in truth they are trying to acquire monoply over robotics, motivated by greed. She tries to protect everyone else, often risking herself in process, her life has been quite easy so far too, and she seems to be innocent and not understanding that life isn't always easy. She also struggles to maintain leadership whenever she is left without Jacobs support. Now that Jacob is dead, it's pretty much certain she'll lose control over the group.

				<strong>Kirei's character no.2</strong><br><br><strong>Name:</strong> Nikolai Shekov<br><strong>Age:</strong> 29<br><strong>Race:</strong> Human<br><strong>Gender:</strong> Male<br><br><strong>Possessions:</strong> Nikolai carries a gauss shotgun strapped to his back. The weapon uses elctromagnetic currents to fire its bullets at blistening speed. The shotgun of this power, equipped with armor piercing rounds could penetrate almost any armor, being able to shoot trough a tank.<br><br>His other weapon is a two handed sword, which he uses with one hand. It's strapped to his back as well.<br><br><strong>Appearance:</strong> Image. (http://leevitron.deviantart.com/art/Warrior-20-90450027) Nikolai is 6'3" tall. He weighs around 350 lbs. His great weight is due to his cybernetic limbs. He has lost both of his legs and arms on a mercenary mission and had them replaced with robotic replicas, made of titanium. <br><br><strong>Biography:</strong> Nikolai has been a mercenary as long as he can remember, due to the fact he suffered a blow to his head when he was nineteen that erased most of his memories from earlier. He has always been in for the money and he has always used the money to women and alcohol. He enjoys rather simple life of shooting things half of the time and having fun the other half.<br><br>He is in Felicias group only for money, and as the thing start going wrong, he only cares of his own well being. He couldn't be less interested of what happens to the rest of the group. Unluckily for the others, Nikolai is more clever than it seems, he is good at talking and manipulating others, and his mind is as twisted as a screw.<br><br>Nikolai's only weapon surely aren't his wits. While his cybernetic limbs make him far less agile than others, they make her stronger and able to jump great heights as well as run really fast. He doesn't use his sword with skill, but with strength, and his shotgun is a great weapon of choise for a guy who hasn't really paid heed to learning how to aim. In combat he relies solely on his speed, strength and destructive power of the gauss shotgun.

				<strong>Chaos's Character.</strong><br><br><strong>Name:</strong> Patricia 'Pixie' Dowd<br><strong>Age:</strong> 22<br><strong>Race:</strong> Human<br><strong>Gender:</strong> Female<br><br><strong>Notable Possessions:</strong> Guns. Pixie loves guns, her assault rifle most of all; She carries a selection of interesting magical ammo for them. Also a compact but surprisingly resource-filled pack of soldier's gear. Perhaps most usefully, an enchanted ammo box that can make more mundane bullets...<br><br><strong>Appearance:</strong> A picture of her. (http://img397.imageshack.us/img397/8414/badassoldierbygreyholeeg7.jpg) Pixie stands 5'4" tall, but she's a tough little thing. Stronger than you'd think to look at her - unless you're seeing her carry her kit. She wears practical soldier gear, though not exactly meeting uniform regulations; it does afford some armour though.<br><br><strong>Biography:</strong> Pixie is a mercenary. Not enough work in the regular army for her, and the lure of excitement gets her out working more than money does. She comes from a military family, and is something of a disappointment in that she's not serving her country - but that got boring fast. They still hope she'll mellow, and return to the service when she'd gotten the adventure out of her system.<br><br>As a mercenary, though, she gets to play with interesting toys. She has the best of guns, always, and high end gear in most ways - as she's in this for the fun, she's not saving her pay, it's all going into equipment. She has no talent for magic, nor use for magicians as a rule, but she does love the effects her special ammo has enchanted into it. There are several kinds, though of course she has a limited amount of each: Fireball bullets that incinerate an enemy, seekers that never miss, even the healing bullets she was given as a joke once. And others, but each one is expensive and irreplaceable. <br><br>This mission seemed like a perfect adventure to her when she heard about it. A lost city, ancient artefacts? Marvellous! Now it's all gone to hell, but hey, she still has a job to do - Felicia and Jacob hired Pixie to get them in and out, and while she has lost one principal, she'll be damned if she loses the pair!

				<strong>Doreados's character.</strong><br><br>Name: Liam Greenwood<br><br>Age: 25<br><br>Specie/Race: Human<br><br>Gender: Male<br><br>Possessions:<br>Gunblade: Effectively a longsword, with basically a shotgun barrel running through the middle of the blade.&nbsp; The handle has been modified to include a trigger, as well as a handguard.<br><br>Amulet: Said to be the source of a holy warrior's power, the amulet is imbued with various gifts, depending on how strong a holy warrior's dedication is.<br><br>Shield: A small round shield, usually strapped across his back, with a dragon with wings outspread in the center.<br><br><br>Appearance: See pic for reference (http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a130/AnadirAkallabeth/MaleWolf1.jpg)&nbsp; Blood red hair and silvery green eyes are the first things to catch anyone's eye about this male.&nbsp; The second is the rather strange blade on his hip.&nbsp; Standing 6'4", and weighing 249 pounds, he is very much a warrior, and the dragon on the shield he bears identifies him as a holy warrior.&nbsp; But what few realize is that the amulet around his neck also grants him the ability to use healing magic.<br><br>The armor he wears consists of a chainmail shirt, with the entirety of his upper body being covered by this, with the exception of his shield arm.&nbsp; This is covered in a set of plate mail, with a trio of spikes jutting up from the shoulder.&nbsp; His cloak is a bit tattered and worn at best, but it still does the job it was intended for and shelters him from the cold.<br><br><br>Biography: Liam came from a family of priests and priestesses.&nbsp; But since he was more built than any other member of his family -- born ten pounds, fourteen ounces -- it was clear that a life of robes and dusty books would not suit him.<br><br>From an early age, his parents educated him in the ways of Bahamut, the Dragon Lord.&nbsp; He was taught that to allow someone to die, whether friend or enemy, without attempting to save them, was dishonorable.<br><br>When he was old enough, he was taught how to handle a blade and shield.&nbsp; He excelled at this, defeating the weapons master of the temple where he was trained at 14.&nbsp; He quickly learned smithing and firearms making from the local towns, and soon decided to combine blade and firearm into a single weapon.<br><br>It took him four years and several burns, but he finally perfected the weapon, the first and best model becoming his own weapon of choice for his fights.<br><br>Microbotics approached him as a potential healer, not realizing he had combat capabilities as well.&nbsp; But when they realized this, they not only offered him the payment, but offered to make a contribution to his temple as well if he went with a team they were putting together.<br><br>He agreed, and soon found out that things were not completely what they seemed.&nbsp; When Jacob died, he was firm in his belief that Felicia could still lead them.&nbsp; He was ALSO firm in his belief, however, that they could ALL get out alive, and that they should do so as quickly as possible.

				<strong>Ramster's character.</strong><br><br><strong>Name:</strong> Yair Shoham<br><br><strong>Age:</strong> 38<br><br><strong>Species/Race:</strong> Human<br><br><strong>Gender:</strong> Male<br><br><strong>Possessions:</strong> M-14 7.62 mm assault rifle (Sharpshooter variant), a small, almost pistol sized grenade launcher, hand grenades, boobytraps made from said grenades, Spectra combat armour reinforced with Unobtainium to stop a .50 round, and a Micro Uzi 9mm hollowpoint machine pistol.<br><br><strong>Appearance:</strong>(http://pro-patria.us/yahoo_site_admin/assets/images/M14_DM.246192456_std.jpg)<br>A master of disguise, Yair is perhaps most commonly seen in his ghillie suit but has been know to wear a tuxedo for high-end assasinations. He stands 5'9" (1.73 m) and has the wiry physique of a kickboxer, weighing in at 159 lbs (72 kg). His dark brown hair is kept trimmed short.<br><br><strong>Biography:</strong> Yair started out as an IDF (Israeli Defence Forces) Designated Marksman. He rose through the ranks from his conscription at 18, and continued as a professional officer until he was about 25. There he learned how to shoot two soldiers through the head with a single bullet at 400 yards, and to hit a target with two well placed shots in a second at a mile's range. After being stripped of his rank and dishonourably discharged&nbsp; for repeated insubordination, absence without leave and a&nbsp; generally unexemplary standard of personal discipline, he used his credentials to quickly set up a new and better paid career as a mercenary and hitman. The army only found out about the large amount of equipment he'd stolen from them once he'd boarded a ship to Mauretania, where he started a 'tour of duty' that included involvement in no less than 23 African conflicts under just as many warlords. <br><br>Finally sick of the poor plumbing, disease and misery of African warfare, Yair turned to Eastern Europe, South America, China and Japan for employment, where his honed sniping and infiltration skills were even more profitably appreciated for political disappearances and settling differences between the more powerful criminal gangs. Some say that he has 17 illegitimate children on four continents, others claim he is an honorary member of the Skull &amp; Bones for "defending US interests in overseas contingency operations".<br><br>When approached by a shadowy cabal for a mission to a cursed city of monsters, of course he said yes. The pay was good and killing monsters would be a terrific break from kiling journalists and drug lords. Besides, his decade in Africa had inspired in him a love of big game hunting. The bigger the creature, the more he enjoyed killing it, and he soon started wondering how to make octopus rings from the promised tentacled beasts. His arrogance would cost him.<br>

				Zaer's character.<br><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote">Quote</div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote"><strong>Name:</strong> Lucien Malfes, code name; 'Dark Wing'<br><strong>Age:</strong> Looks like he is adult human male pass 20, but he is around two hundred years old.<br><strong>Specie/Race:</strong> Human hanyou (half-demon)<br><strong>Gender:</strong> Male<br><strong>Possessions:</strong> Besides his hot dark leather gothic outfit he has trench coat of gothic design which generates generates magical forcefield around him to deflect most physical and magical ranged attacks (not affecting melee attacks).<br>&nbsp;<br>Also he has in his right arm a abyssal steel khatar which he calls 'Night kiss'. Which has peculiar quality to freeze foe's blood (not instantly but mostly slow them down after one good blow), may he be mortal or immortal. Also it is nearly unbreakable and wounds it leaves do not heal well. <br><br>Another magical item in his possession is <em>chain of rhyuu</em>. Which does not look more than simple black iron chain with manacle connected to his leg. But if Lucien unlocks the manacle, he can take grip on the chain and force manacle on a any demon or devil. It would make demon and devil lose all it's supernatural powers so long manacle is on them and they are unable to take it off (and so long Lucien holds the chain he can with contest of will force demon or devil obey him but this drains chain's power more rapidly). Only Lucien or very talented sorcerer can take it off. It has no effect on hanyou's nor their abilities. Also chain can lock down demon or devils powers only for a time, duration varies from minutes to even years, depending on individual strength of the demon or devil and does Lucien force it compel do something.<br><br>Also he has minor technical gadgets like ear plugged comlink, targeting matrix eye lens in his healthy eye and revolver loaded with silver blessed ammunition.<br><strong>Appearance:</strong><br><br>(http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb203/CherryPuff42/Anime/Demon/WingedDemon1.jpg)<br><br><strong>Biography:</strong> Lucien Malfes was born two hundred years ago to a mortal mother who had willingly accepted a devil into her bed as a lover. The devil was called lord Balarcus, he was a bat demon (Lucien got wings likely because of this and also sharp hearing). However Balarcus had enemies who then managed seal him away and go hunt after Lucien's mother, hungering for taking her child to torture it front of sealed Balarcus as his torment.<br><br>Mother was sorceress so she managed teleport child away but she herself got captured. Not even today Malfes knows what has occurred to her but he had killed both rival demons for revenge already (and neither one chose to speak to tell what they did to mother but from sadistic laugh they did something horrible). Lucien was raised by another hanyou, a retired battlesmith. He forged Lucien his khatar and also taught how to use it, teach him basic supernatural demonic martial arts which use darkness, shadows and teleportation combined with brutal strength.<br><br>Lucien had worked a solo crusade against demons for a century before earth awakened to recognize and see supernatural threats. He joined the mercenary company because some monsters even he cannot defeat alone. Also he got payed from doing what he was going to do anyway.</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br>

				Yes, that would be ideal.<br><br>1. I will try to keep posting every five days minium. My post counts as an end for the posting turn and start of another. There isn't any specific posting order, but try to post once after my each post. If all the players post in under five day's time from my post, I'll try to post right after last of them.<br><br>2. If you pair up (go and have sex or private matters that take over a few posts time) make a separate thread and link from the post the private matters start. This is so that the sex won't make the actual storyline jammed. Do continue to post in the actual thread, as it might go days forward in a time of one sensual scene played with great detail. I hope this wasn't too confusing, ask me if it's bugging you.<br><br>3. Do take a note that the city is filled with demonic creatures, it'd be hard to sense one demonic precense from another when something lurks around every corner. While not all of them even have a physical body, they can still be very much sensed if person has an ability to sense the demons. Do take a note that not all of them can be seen or attacked, and not all of them are able to attack, a lot of demons around are observers, working as eyes to others. They are there to make sure there is no place to hide.<br>

				Ramster, you posted quite too much in your IC post I think :P. Even if this is freeform writing a adventure you do not give others chance to react to situations presented by storyteller. Also most freeform writing the storyteller decides do you hit or does mob/demon die (if she does not specifically say 'feel free kill these mobs whatever way you like but write it look cool').

				Mhm, that creature was meant to be killed rather easily, so no sweat there, if someone 'killed' a creature that wasn't meant to be killed, I would simply counter that action somehow in my next post. But indeed, being everywhere in a single post kind of takes away the change from others to react to anything.<br><br>I also wasn't going to post yet, because lot of people haven't responded even to the first post. But I had to make some sort of reaction before things got out of hands. We have a lot of players, and it might take that 5 days to complete just one round of posting, I'm sorry it can't be very fast paced, but try to limit your posts to one or two after each of my posts, that way no one gets too far ahead and it's easier for me to have some sort of control over where the story heads to.<br><br>Sure thing is that there is going to be things that are planned and done by other people than me, that's why it's freeform, but I'll have to be able to follow the main storyline to keep some sense to the RP, even if I try to keep the storyline rather vague to give freedom to&nbsp; players... Just try not to abuse that freedom by being in 7 places in one post just because I posted seven events to happen.

				Well, here we see the effects xD<br><br>Oh well, just make the best out of it all, but we'll really need to have people to not be in the same room or position all the time, since for example now I'm being talked to by someone, someone is almost throwing a grenade at me and someone is dragging me away.<br><br>I will try to brush all the confusion aside in my next post, which will probably be such a damn monsterpost &gt;_&lt; Anyway, for now, let's not all go into the toilet, try to do some interaction between other characters, I'm pretty sure that four people can take care of the monster.

				I think the problem is, with a large group, if we try to post once per round we end up with everyone else's turns to respond to. So we each have to do a lot of stuff, which means there's more to respond to for everyone else.<br><br>For example, if I set all of my post after all those that went before, then Pixie has just been sitting there doing nothing while others make plans, move on, etc. If (as I did) I try to post what she's being doing in the intervening time, that means that Felicia now has to respond to her, and all the others, in (as you say) a monster post that brings her up to date with everything that's happened. And then I need to respond to all of that...<br><br>Don't know what to do about that, mind, but I think that's where the problem lies. Posting more often would stop the rapid posters from getting out of sync, but makes it harder for the slower posters.<br><br>As to us not all being in the same room, I suspect that's going to be a problem for a bit. Splitting up seems like a terrible move for the characters at this point; they'll stay together for safety in numbers, I expect, unless something happens to separate them.

				Ok folks, I suggest we make a few agreements about how we're going to write this action packed roleplay. On the one side of the scale we have everyone standing around waiting for their turn to do or react to something, and on the other we have one character deciding everything that happens in one post and then setting off to do most of it on his own, which is what I almost did. Now, I prefer a gripping narrative, and the freedom for all our characters to go forth and kick ass as necessary and within reasonable limits. We should therefore keep Kirei informed of our intentions, as well as any other players who end up involved with the consequences of our posts, to make sure everyone's OK with what's about to happen. <br><br>As it happens, I don't see much of a problem with the recent sequence of events. Yair didn't see Pixie or Felicia after they went into the building, ran into a monster, and killed it before it killed him rather than shout "Help! A monster!" and wait for backup that he couldn't see in the boarded shut and unlit hotel. A small liberty, perhaps, but luckily not a too serious one. I encourage everyone to make up their own events and prompts so Kirei doesn't have to guide the actions of every character in the game herself. We should be able to get things to work, even with everyone in the same room or close to each other. The result should be a very lively exchange between all players and characters. As Chaos has said, we can't split them up too much yet, they're not retarded!

				I'm getting stressed out by this RP and it's affecting everything else I'm doing on Elliquiy.<br><br>The fact is, I let it get out of hand in the first few posts and I just don't know how to- and have no energy to start parsing it together. It also seems that most of the people who originally joined lost interest before even making a first post and some of the people who did make a post lost their interest anyway.<br><br>I'm sorry to let you down, I hope I've learned something from this.
