Whoa..Heroes... Nice! (ok so a little late)

Let's get ready to rumble!

I am well enough considering that I am off to work and then off to my school to get a pitifully small amount of money back on my textbook afterwards. When I return from all that fun I will endeavor to get a post up for this. I have been chomping at the bit to do so.

As odd a tangent as it is, I just realised that Siya and Atti have been 'denied' as it were.

Oh I was counting on it.

Today was a good day. Home an hour early. Got a little writing in. Let me know if I took any liberties, anyone. For some reason I thought the concept of Soul Fission was, like, totally groovy.

[Igraine]

I wouldn't speak for Heroes, but I rather liked what you did with the soul fission idea there Wordsmith, and a lovely post there!

Hello all. I threw up a little post to bring Aoife into the situation, but since I'm not entire sure where this attack is going I'm leaving it a bit open ended. If anyone wants to stumble upon her sneaking about, feel free.

[Derren Krenshaw]

From what it appears, the attack is largely centered around the legions of kamikaze werewolves charging the front gates of the London office, where a number of the characters are. A small force has infiltrated behind them into the keep proper, with two breaking off for the private rooms of Bain and Hoyle, while the last creates a distraction in the main hall, where most of the rest of the characters are.

It almost sounds like you have your character well outside of the Keep, Dannyel? If so you likely have an army between you and everyone else, so not sure how good the chances are of someone stumbling upon you right now.

I was hoping to keep her exact location a bit ambiguous to facilitate her introduction. Theoretically, she can go through the main gates or sneak in another way and find those in the keep proper, whichever you all feel makes more sense. I am a little confused by the layout here - so I would be pretty much cool with her turning up anywhere in case anyone was interested. I didn't want to just thrust her upon some random scene and have it be all awkward, you know?

[Igraine]

The problem I think Derren is alluding to, is the fact that the London Office is actually a keep, located on an 'invisible' island on the Thames. There is only one entrance if people do not use the shade gates within, and that is via the front - which is currently being amassed by hundreds/thousands of kamikaze werewolves. Attempts to get in like the three infiltrator wolves did without powerful wards/magic/all the bad ass shit they have, will wind up with the being tossed into the Thames (at best) or disintegrated (at worst).

You were meant to bring Aoife in yesterday, before the attack I thought?

[Dannyel]

I honestly had no idea when I was supposed to bring Aoife in - would it be better if I just deleted my post and had her come in after the attack?

[Igraine]

Don't worry about deleting your post, simply modify it to reflect her arrival from the Bain & Hoyle branch office closest to Aoife's last location via a Shade Gate. It's simply a portal maintained by... Well, shades. Instantaneous movement from Point A to Point B. They are generally located in the basements/dungeons/lowest floor of the office, so she can be coming up from the bottom of the keep when the attack begins, and make her way to the great room. That would likely simplify things far more than trying to be seen just beyond an army of kamikaze wolves.

[Dannyel]

Thank you for your advice Igraine - I have edited my post to reflect that. I didn't carry on too far, since I didn't want to effect Derren's post. For now, let's just say that Aoife shall follow him and co until they reach Atticus/she's discovered/I post again?

Note: I also read Heroes post such that Aislinn was the only one in the room, but that might have just been implying that she was the focal point. Please inform me if I need to edit that.

[Igraine]

Veti the werewolf - transformed - is also in there beside Aislinn (reflected in my last post). Henry Grimm the Nack is in there, as he was talking to Aislinn before the window was shattered. Beside Veti is a tall, slim blonde-haired man named Thad, who also happens to be a warlock/sorcerer. Semyon is in there now too, as reflected in Derren's last post as you already mentioned. Only Hellis (Henry Grimm) and tirgesfu (Thad) have yet to post for the people in the room. Yes, Heroes was simply implying that Aislinn was Zakhar's main focus.

[Dannyel]

Thank you again! I hope my next post comes off smoother. Sorry for the hassle.

[Hellis]

Today was a rather testing time for me. But I will have a post up tommorow, I have some ideas.

[Lillian Thorne]

I can well imagine, Hellis. I hope writing will help distract you some.

I'm just finally getting around to some of the writing I have built up from a busy afternoon. Expect a post in a little bit.

[AmongHeroes]

Great responses everyone! So excited to see where this little scene takes us!

I put up the first portion of my wave of posts that are destined to come. I'll be adding more tomorrow when I get a chance. Have a good night all.

[DotCom]

I'll be getting up a post tomorrow afternoon! Sorry for the lag, everyone. Everyone seems to be on a rotation of illness and overtime and work. >___>

[tirgesfu]

I owe a post as well and mine will be coming sometime today.

Fun reads all. Really. Look forward to crashing in.
