[OOC] Surviving IAAN (Open)

[alexfangtalon]

Alright so the estimated time of the first IC will be tomorrow. Late tonight if we're lucky and I can finish it how I want it. If anyone states that they are working on a second character that they want as a part of the camp for the beginning events I will postpone posting the first IC for 24 hours or until they post it.

@alexfangtalon

Awesome :)

[alexfangtalon]

Alright, this was a character I had in mind for bringing in later, but I decided to go ahead and bring her in now.

Katie Pruett

Katie Pruett

Name: Katie Pruett

Gender: Female
Age: 13
Birthday: February, 8

Appearance

Hair: Red
Eyes: Hazel
Height: 5'4"

Personality

Personality:

• Courageous • Stubborn • Thick-Skinned •

Katie is very strong-willed. Out of the four females in her family she became more of a tom-boy. She did all the dirty work around their small home, and was the emotional backbone, alongside her mother, for both her sisters. She is very defensive of her friends and when she gets an idea in her mind she won't back down until forced to or if a close friend does something, and that doesn't even always work.

She is a very secretive person and will move to take care of others long before dealing with her emotional issues often breaking down when alone for to long. Despite her bossy and stubborn personality she can be a great ally and wonderful friend. Just avoid getting on her bad side.

Strengths:

• She is good at taking charge.
• It takes a lot to get to her.
• She is a natural at nurturing the younger kids.
• She's pretty decent at telling if someone is lying.

Weaknesses:

• Extremely stubborn.
• Bottles up her feelings.
• Bossy and strict.
• Anger issues.

Likes:

• Watching the stars.
• Any kind of sport.
• Getting her hands dirty.
• Seeing those around her safe and happy.

Dislikes:

• Girly things.
• Being stereotyped.
• Being told what to do.
• Being alone.
• Anyone who isn't a Psi.

Fears:

• Being locked away forever.
• Having to hurt someone.
• Losing her friends.

Power: Blue. The heaviest thing she can lift is herself, but she can only lift herself close to an inch off the ground.

Family:
Annabelle Pruett - Mother - 34 - Alive - Trying to find her daughters.
Caroline Pruett - Sister - 12(14 if not dead) - Dead
Maizey Pruett - Twin Sister - 13 - Member of the Children's League

History: Katie's life wasn't necessarily a happy one. Sure she got along great with her sisters an mother, but when their parents figured out they were having twins that is when the father disappeared leaving a mother to raise a 1 year old with two more on the way.

It wasn't at all easy. They barely had enough for all four to eat. When they got older the three girls did what they could to help. One day while working at an older woman's house the unexpected happened. Caroline, the oldest and seemingly happiest, fell to the ground. The twins rushed to their sisters side to realize the horror that they never expected. The girl had died on the spot. Maizey began screaming and freaking out while Katie sat there frozen. The old woman came out and almost fainted, but she was composed enough to call the medics.

None of the family was able to cope with what had just happened. They couldn't even process that the girl full of life was now dead. Neither twin noticed that their mother had shut them off from seeing what was happening throughout the rest of the world and they didn't notice the disappearances from school. Well, it waas more like they didn't pay any attention to it.

One day Katie went to school without Maizey because her twin had caught a small cold. That was when she was grabbed. The small number of students left at her school all were grabbed at the same time. Her mother and sister heard this and abandoned the home before Maizey could get grabbed. They tried to track down where Katie was taken, but got separated when a few PSF's attacked a small group of people hiding with their Psi family. That's when the Children's League came in and saved a few of the kids. Leaving the family members behind.

Within the next year the Children's League sent in a few of the kids as spies to Du Pont Camp to attempt a rescue mission on the kids there. Among that group of infiltrators was Maizey.

Other: Her mother is a Skip-Tracer that only turns in kids who may die on their own.

Ah, quick question for you @alexfangtalon. Are the genders separated into different sections of the camp or are they just separated in their sleeping quarters? By the way I'm excited for your IC post today.

[alexfangtalon]

@BassDropp Good question. Hopefully I explain it well. First off I believe I already said how each cabin works. After that there are four separate sections of cabins. One for the older half of the boys, one for the older half of the girls, one for the younger boys, and one for the younger girls. When the time for them to eat comes the older half of the kids eat together and the younger half eat together. They keep the older kids separate from the younger for multiple reasons. They also work separately. They see each other a good amount but don't have much time to interact. The sections of cabins aren't that large and they are somewhat close. I'll try and get that map thing done today.

[alexfangtalon]

Alright, before anyone gets confused with that talking at the start, it will come full circle. I went with more of our characters having flashbacks to the current point we will be at. Also, all the guy characters are in the same cabin, and all the girl characters share the same cabin. You can make your first post however you want. I set a basic outline for how your solo screening moment goes and you can go more in depth if you feel like it. There is a lot for your characters to interact to so there's that. Also, we can either do the cabin talk in collabs or single posts at a time or skip it all together. I'll leave that to you guys. I have no preference for that. Anything else you may have a question for just feel free to ask.

Also still trying to figure out the map thing, and sorry for being a couple minutes later than I said I would be.

[BassDropp]

I like the way you set the IC up, very impressive. I may or may not post because I'm going to Niagara Falls today.

Questions:
1. Just so we're clear you want us to a have a flashback of how we all were taken to camp and then gave a switch to the present?
2. If the above question is a "yes," then what are the campers doing in the present. Is that up to us?

[alexfangtalon]

@BassDropp As of right now I'm leaving it up to you guys if we do the scene in which our characters first talk to each other in their respective cabin groups. I don't have a preference for this so I felt like letting you guys have a say in it before I made a decision on that.

I set-up the flashback thing in a way we can post normally and when we've decided we are done in the past we can jump to the point of the escape and I'll do a similar post letting you guys know what has been going on for our characters over these two years at camp. Everyone will make a post saying what has been going through their characters minds and how they feel about the others they've met here. That's when the escape attempt will start.

I hope I answered your question right.

[BassDropp]

Ah, okay I understand now. If anyone would like to discuss relationships with James please PM me.
@alexfangtalon @JackalopeLove@MechonRaptor@PatrickDrummer

[MechonRaptor]

Oh, I should say the same thing! Though, I'm not sure if any of you would want to hang out with Leo xD

[PatrickDrummer]

I'll post sometime tomorrow.

[alexfangtalon]

Alright, issues caused by hurricane over I can now actually type up my characters posts. Geez. Hope everyone else was safe during this past weekend. Also, I really like everyone's post so far. By the way no one has made a mention of what way they want to do the next part. Either collabing in the cabins, doing the cabin post back and forth, or skip it entirely. I have no real preference so I'm letting y'all have an option. If no one says anything we'll probably just skip it.

[BassDropp]

Just to clarify, we'd be skipping two years into the future right? Would we be skipping to the point of the escape? Or to the planning phase of the plan?

[alexfangtalon]

@BassDropp Yes, we'd be skipping two years. Our characters won't be apart of the planning. That's what the Children's League is doing. Our characters will help. (Obvious statement is obvious lol)

[BassDropp]

So are we doing the time skip now? We can keep having flashbacks as they're on the run if that's what people would like. To show why our characters act a certain way, we could do flashbacks every now and then ya know?

@BassDropp

Yeah, I like the idea of pushing forward, but if we are going to do the time skip we should all definitely talk about our character interactions over the time, so we have some prebuilt relationships.

[BassDropp]

We should just do it here because my PM's are cluttered as it is, lol.

[PatrickDrummer]

Just posted and am now waiting for instructions on what to do next.

[BassDropp]

I believe we are updating our relations seeing as the time skip will have been 2 years, after that I think Alex will continue the RP so we can begin the escape. @PatrickDrummer

[BassDropp]

Sorry for the double post but are we going to update relations or is everyone okay with what we have established so far?
