Don't worry Scarlett. Your character isn't interacting with anyone at this moment, so you won't have any trouble jumping right into the action when you come back! ^^

Oh, had a question: do you think we can switch to the every two post rule? I just think once a day is too slow. Or maybe set up a posting schedule so we all take turns?

Not meaning to shut down your idea. Fair enough if it's banter between 2 people. Just as long as everyone can keep up with a general pace.

@Daxam Mmm I don't want to rely on a posting schedule because rps I've had have died waiting on one person. Also there is someone in this rp who isn't going to be here for a while, which is why I hesitate to bring back the every two posts rule in order to make it easier for them to catch up. I'm a bit concerned with some characters getting ahead in the story before it's time to implement things they may unknowingly introduce before the time is right. Basically also to what [@NuttsandBolts] said, we're pretty busy people which is why I found 1 time a day to be perfect for this rp.

HOWEVER,

If everyone agrees with it, I will bring back the every two posts rule.

OR

I will be more vigilant in posting every single day.

Edit-
But I do applaud your enthusiasm. This story is meant to be savored like a sweet dessert, not gobbled like a bunch of potato chips.

Classy~ not greasy<3

I really am enjoying this RP, and when I enjoy RP's, I wanna give as much as I can to the story. However, now that you mention it, once a day does seem better for the RPers we have. Whatever the decision, I'll still give as much as I can ^^

Name: Liron
Gender: Male
Character Type: Cyborgel
Appearance: For a cyborgel, Liron looks rather ... human if you disregard the ashen colored wings and the mechanical arm and red mechanical eyes.

Or at least once upon a time he looked rather human. His short, black hair is currently matted with blood and his right arm - a metal prosthetic - hangs useless at his side. His leg is bent rather awkwardly - no doubt broken, and parts of his body are covered in nasty burns. If one looked really closely they could find pieces of burned dog hair.

However, once he gets cleaned up and no longer looks like something out of the Night of the Living Dead, Liron is a rather tall young man - about 5'11" if one were to measure him - with short tossled black hair and pale white skin. He is wiry, yet clearly muscular. His shoulders are broad, and taper down. His ashen wings can easily fold against his body - although they could be hidden by a coat, there is a weird awkward bulge in the back for anyone with any sort of sense of detail for attention.

Currently Liron is wearing what he died in - well, after his body was ransacked for the "good" clothes by various miscreants. (After all, Liron is a cyborgel and an object. Also, believed dead). By some good fortune Liron was left with a pair of dirty, if not rather soiled, black boxer shorts.



Career:
After his capture and brainwashing, Liron was re-tasked to working as a "volunteer" firefighter. (Of course one couldn't exactly call him a volunteer since, you know, brainwashing but semantics.)

There are two different types of firefighters; wildland firefighters who contain and prevent the spread of the raging inferno of death that is eating the forest and firefighters which most people are used to seeing in towns, villages and cities.‏

Contrary to popular belief, neither are mutually exclusive - after all they are trained to do two different tasks. Figherfighters who are in towns and cities measure fires by yards and feet and use water to put them out. On the other hand, wildland firefighters fight fire with literal fire. After all when you are measuring fires in literally tens of acres, there isn't going to be enough time to put one of those bad boys out. Of course there are other differences between the two (such as work weeks) but will not be mentioned in favor of it not being very important.

However, the people in charge decided why not double dip and make Liron able to perform in both capacities.‏

While Liron's job was mostly to either contain or put out fires - depending on what call he was sent to - Liron was also tasked in performing other typical firemen duties like rescuing kittens out of trees on those off days that there wasn't anything on fire.

Skills:
The most important skill Liron had when he was "working" as a fireman was that he looked human, or at least could pass off as one as long as he wore a long coat to hide his wings and mechanical arm. While his eyes were a bit harder, it was usually nothing that a pair of sunglasses or a fireman helmet couldn't fix.‏

The reason this was important was because as a fireman, Liron didn't just fight fires (although it was a good part of it) but dealt with distressed individuals and the public at large. Since people could act erratically when upset and distressed, Liron's "ability" to pass as human was considered a beneficial perk.‏

To expand on this, it can be easily inferred that Liron has some grief consoling experience under his belt. Even if it wasn't programmed into him, Liron no doubt would have had to learn on the job. While Liron very rarely dealt with the public in any other capacity, he was trained to in case of emergencies and something came up and some person approached him instead of an actual human. ‏

He's memorized the entire layout of the city he was stationed in - as well as the street conditions - in the need to travel to the most direct route of the incident. The forest was a bit harder considering landmarks tended to go up in flames or were on fire at the time.

Liron's right arm also provides him with great strength - it has the ability to rip apart armored trucks and smash concrete. This has a variety of uses from cleaning up debris to smashing in walls to look for hot spots, or being able to carry unconscious person, the mechanical arm has many uses depending on what the situation calls for. ‏

Liron also has very basic EMS skills - mostly focusing on "is this person alive?" and "if not, attempt to resurrect" or "if so, wow they're bleeding a lot - let's stop that." Liron also has been taught how to use Narcan to save people who have overdosed. Essentially he was put through first responder training, or better put programming.

Liron's thermal sensing eyes - whose function can be toggled on and off merely by thinking about it - allows Liron to search for lifeforms, whether they are dead or alive based on their heat temperatures. This is greatly beneficial when looking for victims trapped inside structure fires or even car fires.‏

Finally, the most obvious of Liron's skills is to fight fire. This extends more than just to using a high pressurized hose to dose the flames. For structure fires, Liron needed to determine best location for venting structure based on location of hazard and fire personnel, roof type, and building construction. Also, when it comes to forceable entry, he needed to know where best to enter the blazing inferno called death. Wildfire firefighters on the other hand learned how to camp in the path of an inferno and running from fire tornadoes which love to pop up because the universe loves to troll like that. While maybe not so much a skill, it might be interesting to note.

Supernatural Abilities: Judging by his wings, it can be assumed that Liron has the ability to fly.

Personality: Quiet, Efficient, Obedient, Empathic, Blunt

Bio: Liron doesn't know much about himself prior to becoming a firefighter. He was a relatively undamaged angel, and stayed relatively unmodified after some towns and cities in the western part of the United States were complaining of the lack of volunteer firefighters to fight fires - after all, charging into a raging inferno borders on brave and crazy. It was felt if Liron was kept more "human," it would benefit the fire departments.

After all, Liron would be an easy thing to throw away and be able to take the most dangerous tasks, thus taking the figurative (and literal) heat off the other, more important (and human) firefighters.‏ ‎However, since things happen in the heat of the moment and people need somebody to cry to and ask questions, it was felt Liron needed to appear mostly human as to not cause any greater distress or anger, potentially impeding the firemen's jobs if somebody had an issue with Liron.

Liron was assigned to a small fire unit in the western part of the United States where the dry weather and low population made it very hard to have enough people for the constant fires which seemed to start with the littlest of provocation.

Assigned the name "Liron" by one of the fire crew (to make it easier when out on calls), Liron lived mostly in the fire hall (or in the path of a blazing inferno on those wildfire days which could last up to months) unless he was out on a call. He was in charge of the tedious day to day work when at the station of making sure the equipment was working and cleaned, and whatever droll jobs that needed to be done but weren't exactly enthralling.

While Liron was helpful to the fire department, as cyborgels eventually faded into misuse, money towards his upkeep seemed to gradually diminish into nothing.

One day when at a structure fire call, the flames enveloped a propane tank causing an explosion which would make Michael Bay proud. Unfortunately, Liron was in the house at the time rescuing the family's pet dog and was severely damaged.

Considered outdated and unable to be repaired, Liron's burned body was simply thrown to the side of the road with rest of the trash.

Apologies in advance! :P Daxam, I more or less assumed that Zac is helping her limp around with her arm on his shoulders and him holding her, so if that assumption is incorrect, I'm happy to edit.

That assumption is very correct. He's letting her use him to support her weight on one leg :)

EDIT: Should I have Zac actually come up with a new name for Nemesis or have him convince her that the name she has is as good as any, because I'm leaning toward the latter :P

x3 To be honest, I actually like the idea of him giving her a new name. She's trying to put the past behind her because on no small level, her new, awakened perspective makes memories of the lab disturbing. She views "Nemesis" as a label, a designation for an object, rather than a name. And it's something of a secret ceremony--in allowing him to give her a name, she is passing on the sense of service/purpose from the scientists to him.

Buuuuut by the same token, Zac is yo' charrie. You should roll with whichever suits him best.

When you put it that way, that actually makes sense. I'll try to come up with a name and run it by you to see if it's alright :)
