Sweet!

[bmxbrat484]

Either one will take her.
To a secluded place to murder her.
One of them would just be a lot less smooth and a lot more apologetic about it.

@LorelleQuips

But she would know by touching them that their intentions are murderous, sillywilly. That, and she's far from helpless.

@bmxbrat484@LorelleQuips@Hyro
You're all assuming Aran will allow her to even approach a rival serial killer. He may be a serial killer himself, but he still sees Eira as a daughter/student, so if he gets even close to her or him, he might find himself electrocuted within an inch of his life.

@Claw2k11

Oooh damn, papa Aran be like

[EchoicChamber]

Hold on, forgot to add a bit where Dawn mentions Drake, am gonna do that now, haha.

EDIT: Added a quick thing!

[Kazemitsu]

Kinda feelin like I should drop out x.x can't figure out a way to insert myself...

[EchoicChamber]

@Kazemitsu You could have your character go on a mission as well? Or if you post Kaze just being around the base, I could see about working up a reason for Gale to go hang out with him. :)

@bmxbrat484

Ahaha yeah, thus she's welcome to go for it on TRYING to seduce them.
Not that it would get very far. Toby knows Gifts so he would know that touching=cover blown.

[LorelleQuips]

And as far as inserting ourselves, by the way, I wondered if we all wanted to put our heads together to talk about the Wasteland settlement and what that's lkke since I'm going to have Toby and Spire pop there. What characters are regular visitors there to trade/any of them who live there/what The general ambiance and culture is of this particular settlement beyond usual dusty, desperate, scrappy Ash style.

[ScoundrelQueen]

I'm going to assume that if neither faction has bothered trying to take it or bomb it, it's probably got not more than a few hundred transient occupants. Probably limited electricity, and if there is I would guess its from solar that a technopath got working, and in that case very likely incredibly expensive to trade for. I imagine most gifted bold enough to come to a place like this are either very rough, desperate, or at least have been in the Ash long enough to know how to watch their own backs. A lot of stuff is broken or rusted, and if there is running water, again, I imagine whoever's claimed the turf it can be gotten from is charging a heavy fee.

My guess is that if you don't want to trade goods or services, you wouldn't want to be there.

The Ash is a very rough place to live, and "settlement" is a bit of a loose term.

[LorelleQuips]

Yeah, I was hoping to hash out, like, the backstory and leadership and such but I'll move this talk to discord now that im there.

[EchoicChamber]

Aight, before I post, just wanted to let y'all know that Hyro gave me direct knowledge on what was on Drake's mind for this particular post, so nobody worries I'm powerplaying or anything. :)

There we go, a face some of you from the previous AU might recognise. As a few details aren't pinned yet with a couple of people things are a little loose rn, but, Hel.

Hel

Full Name: [NO DATA]

Nicknames/Aliases: Hel, Little Hel, Kid, The Antichrist, Red Queen Project.

Age: 7

Gender: Female

Gift: [NO DATA]

Loyalty: None.

Description: Hel resembles a small, short-set girl of eight years of age. She is a little underweight for her age and height, and has long, untidy, bright ginger hair.. Her eyes have vivid berry-red irises. Her skin is naturally on the pale side.

There is notable surgical scarring, on her forehead, face, neck and shoulder.

Personality: Hel is a creature very much influenced by her environment. She is perpetually serious, to the point of being rather morbid, and seems to have an extremely casual attitude towards death and killing.

Unusually quiet and focused for a child of her age, she is usually quite self-contained, and does not talk more than she needs to.

Hel is quite a schemer, and seems to have some kind of greater plan in mind. She feels it's her job to 'fix' people. Her methods though, are brutal.

Despite this, Hel is still a child. She has a childish understanding of the world around her, childish lack of skills, and childish fear.


Skills: -Hel seems very intelligent considering her age, and appears to be able to formulate comparatively complex plans and tactics.

Weaknesses: Hel is a child, and has both the size disadvantage that comes with it, and something of a childish mindset. While she is clever she has quite black and white reasoning, and can easily be diverted or distracted.



Brief History: The result of the well-funded, but not very widely publicised 'Red Queen' project, Hel was sent into her first mission, accompanied by an Erubescan knight 'handler'to ensure that things went to plan. Unfortunately, said handler met an untimely death shortly after the dispatch, and the young subject was left without direction or supervision in the wastes, and with very little int he way out outlet for her destructive programming. (This is rather intentionally vague! :D)

Ok, I think I'm gonna make another character since nearly everyone else made a second character.

[Shard]

To be fair, Layne is meant to replace Miles. Got tired of Miles. He was too dark and brooding for my liking, in the end. So, I intend to only have one character.

[Shard]

On second thought, I'm dropping out.

Awwww..... KILL HIM OFF!! I'LL DO IT. In true #SorryNotSorry fashion

[thewizardguy]

Full Name: Alex Machinarius Blake

Nicknames/Aliases: the Breaker

Age: 34

Gender: Male

Gift:
[Hands of Fate]
With his left hand, Alex is capable of absorbing things into a pocket dimension. Large objects like walls or people aren't usually pulled in whole but rather pulled in in pieces, shredded by the transition. As a rule of thumb, anything he can carry with one hand can be ported into this pocket dimension. Anything bigger gets shredded. This effect can be used both offensively and defensively, removing projectiles or weapons or making holes in people with a mere touch. The pocket dimension has no gravity or time, so anything placed into it and later removed will not have aged at all. Living usually go unconscious when placed in the pocket dimension.

With his right hand, Alex expels things from the pocket dimension. These objects maintain their momentum relative to Alex at the time they were absorbed, and as such he's able to fire projectiles he's previously blocked. He can also call weapons into his right hand, as long as those weapons were absorbed into the pocket dimension with his left. Large objects that were 'shredded' can be ejected in pieces, blocks of stone from a wall or a spray of gore for people parts.

The combined power of these hands allow for a great amount of versatility and firepower, without sacrificing defensive ability. It's this power that makes Alex such a dangerous opponent.

Loyalty: Mercenary

Description: Tall and generally unshaven. Alex has an athletic body with a number of scars from various combat encounters. His mask contains a voice modulator in order to further aid in hiding his identity. His hair is brown and unkempt.

Personality:
Practical and greedy, Alex fights simply for money. Knowing that he has no mind for business and possessing great skill in battle, he sees mercenary work as the best option available to him. Due to his experience in the field he is often merciless, although he refuses to kill children. Often on missions he keeps collateral to a minimum, but almost any target can be eliminated for the right price. Whether that target is a general, a businessman, or even a small settlement. While few can even hope to get close to him, Alex does possess a strong sense of loyalty and honour. He always honours the contract, he always finishes the job, and he always pays off his debts. And the few friends he has can expect him to lay down his life for theirs.


Skills:
Ambidextrous, for obvious reason. Also a highly skilled hand-to-hand combatant and marksman. Quite capable at stealth, and knows a thing or two about hacking electronics.

Weaknesses:
The abilities his hands show do not extend to the upper arm. While his left hand is capable of blocking practically any attack, the rest of his body remains as vulnerable as that of a normal human.


Brief History:
While originally in Erubesco, Alex was quick to discard their norms and values. Born of poor parents he learned to make a living in the slums, relying on his powerful Gift to survive. Before long he was drafted into the army, but he defected when he witnessed how easily his superiors threw away the lives of him and his men. The values of honour and dignity held little appeal to him, aside from his own personal sense of honour. As such he became a free man, earning a living through a variety of odd jobs. Over time he became more well known, gaining the title of 'the Breaker.' Now he's one of the most feared mercenaries in the war, the prices of his service increasing as both sides vie for his assistance.
