[quote=@Wernher] Here are a few characters, the 'Chosen Few' Veronika surrounds herself with. A few cops that are considered above suspicion on her book (Weather they are or not is another thing) since lets be frank, Veronika herself is not the kind of character that would walk around the streets of that city. Of course, the fact that she pushed promotions toward them kind of make her reviled by the officers that care about these kinda things.

As such, Veronika was probably a good person to leech of. She's a ruthless careerist who's only in it for herself. Which is probably why Veronika keeps her away from the streets, the only thing preventing her from getting over ambitious and accepting bribe probably being that she doesn't know anyone in Somabra.

Well Tomas did, got mauled while working under cover and send back home in a barrel as a warning. Veronika thought it was the end of that but didn't account for Tomas' wife having knowledge of some necromancer gang and illegally bring him back to life. Now he works still for Veronika although he was always more mild in his tactics than the Superintendent drastic measures. But where loyalty fall short, the fact the Police should prosecute his wife for illegal use of necromancy keeps him in line. Dat ok? I should post tonight! Probably... maybe... [/quote] They both look good! You can add those two paragraphs to the bottom of your CS, if ye fancy. [quote=@Meiyuki] Hi! I'm new around here, I'm not sure how collaborative posting works. I presume it's used when two character are having a conversation so that it doesn't need to be broken up into smaller posts? Anyway, thank you for having me, and go a little easy on me ok? =) Edit: Also if anyone has any critiques of my posts feel free to drop them by my PM. I understand that the advanced end of the pool has a higher bar, so any advice that might help me reach it is welcome. [/quote] I really enjoyed your post. It had a very Vampire the Masquerade feel to it, which is my favorite thing involving vampires, ever. My inbox is always open if you want to work out something more conrete between Nyxie and Vlad.
