[OOC] 𝔸 / 𝐒𝐘𝐍𝐂𝐇𝐑𝐎𝐍𝐘

[psych0pomp]

Two years ago, eight people went missing in the small North Dakotan town of Caulder's Hollow. The incident rocked the nation as they'd somehow disappeared at the same time from entirely different locations. There was nothing in their backgrounds that tied them together. They were a mixture of Caulder Hollow natives, tourists, and passers-by. Yet, when the clock struck 11:43 PM, they were gone. The forestry agency searched the surrounding wilderness. The authorities turned the town upside down. There were alerts sent to the Canadian border, and federal agents did statewide sweeps. Yet, the eight were never found. The news died down eventually, and the town went back to normal. Well, as normal as it could be considering it lured tourists from all over trying to discover what happened to the missing eight of Caulder's Hollow.

Our story isn't about them, or at least at this moment it isn't. They are players in this grand game, but they're the obstacles, not the entrants. But, I'm getting ahead of myself.

Tonight, in the early spring of April, Caulder's Hollow was about to receive some very surprising news. Mara Swain, a recent high school graduate and one of the missing eight, was found on the banks of the Pembina River outside the Evershine Outpost. She'd been discovered by a couple of students from Hightower High. She was unconscious at the time, but she was alive. To hear the teens tell the story, the door to the Evershine Outpost was bright purple only for a moment as Mara Swain tumbled out. In a flash of light, the door returned to normal, and Mara was there. One might assume they were drinking, but the next bit of their story couldn't have been falsified. Mara was dressed in clothing that didn't resemble anything on Earth, and it was made of a material that seemed to be both liquid and solid at the same time. On her hip was a globe made of transparent plastic that held a small, clockwork creature. On her back, sprouting from her flesh like veins of gold and crystal, were huge angelic-like wings. In one hand was a dagger, seemingly to be made out of the same material as her clothing. Blood coated the tip of the blade. Mara's forearm was bleeding from what looked to be a self-imposed wound. When later cleaned by the paramedics, they noticed it glowed, luminescent in the light of the ambulance. More so, it said something...

News broke of Mara's return like a thunderclap across the valley. It'd only been an hour, but the world was already watching. Maybe with her return, the other seven would also come back? That'd be quite some hopeful thinking, considering the exact opposite happened that evening.

At 11:43 PM, you feel this gnawing sensation in the pit of your stomach. You might question where it came from, but you know what you have to do. You have to find the nearest door and walk through it. Stumbling through whatever obstacles that come between you and it, the pain subsides when you grab the knob and turn. The world disorients for a second. Your awareness feels like it's on the inside of your body. Your innards exposed to air so cold it burns like the sun. A prickling sensation passes over your extremities and into the core of your body. Unsure if your heart is on the inside or out, you feel it skip a beat. And then another. Was it slowing down?

Next thing you know everything snaps back into reality. Your skin feels on its skeleton where it should be. Yet, the odd tingling sensation won't leave you. You look around to find that the landscape around you is far from Caulder's Hollow. The sky above is a deep black and purple, eight moons hanging in the air. The ground underneath your feet is compacted earth, but there are slivers of glowing areas akin to metallic veins. You turn around to see that the door you passed through is fading away. You can't get your fingers around the knob before it dissipates entirely. You become aware of a large corrugated metal sign you hadn't seen before. A buzzing fluorescent bulb points towards what's written on it.

The First Set if the Missing Eight

Farrah St. Pierre, a native of Caulder's Hollow, was living in New York City and attending the New York School of Art for photography. On that fateful night, she was visiting her grandmother to go through old family photos for a school project. She thought she heard a noise, and her grandmother said she never returned. Marnie Westover was the daughter of Paul and Cynthia Westover, the town's mayor and husband. In the beginning, it was believed to have been politically motivated, but it came to light that Cynthia Westover had zero enemies. Marnie on the other hand... She was staying at a friend's when she disappeared. Peter H. Vaughn was a history teacher for grades eleven through twelve. He wasn't a native of Caulder's Hollow as he spent most of his early life in California. There were a few cannabis-related charges on his police record but nothing outstanding. No one knows where he was the night he disappeared. Apollo Young was probably the oddest victim in this case. He was just traveling through Caulder's Hollow on his trip to Canada to meet his girlfriend's family. He was staying at the CH Motel for one night and one night only. Unfortunately, that was the night he disappeared. It's believed he was in his motel room, 143, when he went missing.

The Second Set of the Missing Eight

Mara Swaim was a Caulder's Hollow native whose family owned and ran one of the four farms in town and the only ranch. She recently graduated from Hightower High and was working on her family's farm. She'd been watching a movie with family when they said she walked through the front door and disappeared. Seong Do-yun was from Seattle, Washington and visiting his family after his aunt's passing. A university graduate, he had an architectural degree and was working for Hobbs and Bricks Design Firm. His family said he went to the bathroom earlier that evening and never returned. Seong Ha-eun was a native of Caulder's Hollow who had moved back after the death of her mother. She was left her mother's restaurant in the will. As the cousin of Do-yun, she'd planned to join him in Seattle to help promote her culinary career. She was working late at the restaurant doing inventory when one of her employees stated that she walked through the kitchen doors and never returned. Asten Hightower was a Caulder's Hollow native and the proud son of the Hightowers, the founding family of the town. He'd gotten a full scholarship to Ohio State, where it was assured he'd be scouted professionally. There was nothing else special to Asten beyond a locked disciplinary notice from Hightower High. No one knows where he was the night he went missing.

Larger Version

Caulder's Hollow was founded in 1843 by Hiram Hightower, and is the third oldest town in North Dakota. In the beginning, it was just a trading post, Evershine Outpost, that grew in size from the commerce of settlers traveling through and a bustling fur trade supplied by the surrounding woods. The origin of the town's namesake is a mystery. Many people believe it comes from the perfect "hollowed out" area that the town calls home along with the name of Hiram's first son, Caulder Hightower. Currently, its biggest income is from agriculture endeavors, the mercantile industry, and tourism. It's a quaint town surrounded by gorgeous trees, elevated terrain, the Pembina River, and a wind that people swear they can hear music on.

Local Landmarks

^{_{CH MOTEL}}

Information

Despite the shortness of its name, the CH Motel is a quaint place run by one Patty Henderson. It offers discounts to tourists along with a breakfast thats furthest thing from continental. People swear that it offers the best sleep they've ever had.

^{_{CHURCH OF GOD}}

Information

A massive stone church of the Penecostal faith. It holds weekly services, helps in the community, and has many outreach programs. It's led by Minister Randall Porter.

^{_{CITY SQUARE}}

Information

The heart of the town, the City Square contains the courthouse, several county offices, the sherrif's department, and a few restaurants and floral shops. Mayor Cynthia Westover works here along with Sheriff Balestraad.

^{_{EVERSHINE OUTPOST}}

Information

A historical landmark, and the first building in Caulder's Hollow, Evershine Outpost has been restored to resemble its former glory. It's a quaint building made of sturdy, wooden architecture that has survived the years. It's South of the Pembina River and over a small wooden bridge from Caulder's Hollow proper. It's rumored to have gotten its name from a secret moonshine business that traded out of it in the early hours of the morning.

^{_{FARMS, LOCAL}}

Information

Hodgson, McCabe, Pinter, and Swaim, are all family-owned and operated farms in the area. They produce a bulk of the income for Caulder's Hollow. The Swaim family also runs a ranch out of their land, as well. They rent out their horses for a few tourist trails.

^{_{FIRST METHODIST CHURCH}}

Information

On the other side of town from the Church of God is the Methodist Church. Their wildly different ideologies have led to a bit of a friendly rivalry between them. The Methodist Church has a kinder view of the LGBTQIA population than the Church of God. They also have a program to help the homeless and those in need of counseling. They're led by Reverend Marisha Hoakes.

^{_{FORESTRY STATION}}

Information

Run by Keith Fredrickson, the Forestry Station is mainly to help and promote the sanctity of the forests of North Dakota. Their services can also stretch out to helping with search efforts, hiking trails, and local horticulture classes. It's pretty much run by volunteers with a lot of education.

^{_{HIGHTOWER LODGE}}

Information

The second oldest building in Caulder's Hollow, the Hightower Lodge is both a historical landmark and an upscale restaurant. It's a large, wooden building against the Northern Forest that has nothing but stained glass panes on the second floor. The Elks meet there monthly to discuss their business. It's odd, but the Hightowers don't frequent the Lodge... at all.

^{_{HIGHTOWER SCHOOL DISTRICT}}

Information

The largest set of buildings in Caulder's Hollow, it's the entirety of the education system for the town. Running from Pre-K to 12, everyone who's been born and raised in Caulder's Hollow has attended its halls. It's home to the CH Cougars, an AA football team that has won its handful of state championships. It is middling in testing, though. The Principal is Ursula Stratham.

^{_{MARKETPLACE, THE CENTRAL}}

Information

A cluster of buildings that contain Caulder Hollow's industrial complexes. It's the main shipping district for the produce and grain that the local farms make. That, along with a small batch brewing company, a stationery manufacturer, and a few different clothing producers, keep this small town afloat.

^{_{PEMBINA MUNICIPAL HOSPITAL}}

Information

The only medical facility for miles, it has many different departments and services to offer those of Caulder's Hollow and beyond. That being said, it's not licensed for trauma and severe cases have to be air-lifted elsewhere. If you were born in Caulder's Hollow, you were born at this hospital. If you die in Caulder's Hollow, there's a large chance you will die here as well.

^{_{RED RACER GAS STATION}}

Information

The only commercial gas station in Caulder's Hollow, and probably the only business you'll visit if you pass through. It has a selection of fried goodness, shades, Evershine Memorial Hats, and a rosy-cheeked cashier named Daisy Sumter.

^{_{RICK'S PLACE}}

Information

You need anything for your outdoor hobbies? There's a 40% chance that Rick's Place will have it. Though more geared around fishing, the place also does have hiking and camping gear. It's run by Rick Timball III, and there's about a 40% chance you'll understand him.

^{_{SHADOWGLADE POND & UTILITY PLANT}}

Information

While not the prettiest area in Caulder's Hollow, it's quite the spot during the hot days of summer for the residents. The waters are surprisingly clear, and volunteers from the Church of God keep it clean... not for the lack of trying by the younger population of Caulder's Hollow. It ranks high along with the Outpost as places to "park."

^_GUIDELINES

• This RP is High Casual, meaning I don't require a million words, but the words that you give me should be readable and add something to the scene.
• Posting pace is once a week. If we get going and the pace is faster than that I'll be so happy, that's totally fine. I'm more okay with characters having back and forths than I am with collabs. Let me know if you're unable to post. I'll send out reminders before I put the next GM post into motion.
• I expect politeness from everyone involved in the OOC. (I don't mind cattiness in the IC as it doesn't derail the scene.) If you have any problems, let me know.
• Fill out the Character Sheet below. (The parentheses should give you an idea as to where to write.) I know it looks like a lot, but the majority of it's a one to two-word response. I just wanted to spice things up. Quick Note: Remove the space between the https:// and i.imgur to make the pictures work. The coding language wouldn't let me do it any other way. It'll also tell me you read this.
• After you're done, PM me with the link to your CS and three rumors about your character. Two are false, and one is real.
• I'm accepting 4-8 players, but more or less depending on the quality and quantity of the sheets. I'm just giving myself a reasonable limit.
• If you have any questions, please ask!

^{_{THE STAT SHEET}}

I can feel you asking me now. Why are there two sheets? The idea is that after you fill out the character sheet, you don't have to go in and edit it. It's a monument to your character at the start of the game. The one below, on the other hand, will be routinely updated as we go along. It also takes up less space and is easily editable. I figured the police wouldn't ask what do you think your stats are.

• 𝔹𝕆𝔻𝕐: As it sounds. Your character's physicality. Their strength and constitution.
• 𝕊ℙ𝔼𝔼𝔻: Not only how fast they are, but how dextrous they are.
• 𝕄𝕀ℕ𝔻: Intelligence, cunning, and problem-solving skills fall into this.
• ℂ𝕆𝕆𝕃: Your charisma and the ability to act under pressure.
• 𝕎𝕀𝕃𝕃: Your willpower and ability to resist temptations.

• ◼◻◻◻◻◻ : Untrained
• ◼◼◻◻◻◻ : Below Average
• ◼◼◼◻◻◻ : Average
• ◼◼◼◼◻◻ : Above Average
• ◼◼◼◼◼◻ : Highly Trained
• ◼◼◼◼◼◼ : Inhuman

Everyone starts with ◼◼◼◻◻◻. You then edit them based on your three starting traits. These are your character's skills, knowledge, or prowess. Each of these traits will add one point ◼ to a stat but reduce a point ◻ from another. If you would like, on one trait you can add two points ◼◼, but subtract two ◻◻ from another. No stat should go below one or be at a six.

Example:

RESEARCHER:

[+1 MIND; -1 COOL] Character Name spent a lot of time studying to finish their doctorate and became quite skilled at finding what they wanted where they wanted. Unfortunately, that also made them have a tendency to talk a lot about it.

As much are artefacts go, leave them empty for now. In the inventory, put whatever your character would have on their person whenever they passed through the door. You don't have to be hyper-specific, just anything that can be used as tools or objects of survival. Copy and paste the list code however many times you'd like.

[psych0pomp]

The nature of the various realities that we belong to has been theorized upon again and again. Every reality has its idea about how everything lines up. Whether it be paper-thin edges, mucousy in-betweens, or sanity warping, bone-crunching nightmares, they all share one idea. That whatever is on the other side is different enough to alter one's consciousness forever. Yet, what they failed to understand is that there's a refuse pile for all these realities. Occasionally, certain "events" punch a hole through these existences and empty those scraps into a pile all its own. Together, they have formed their own reality. One that could have technology from a thousand years in the future or a thousand years in the past. Where all genetic variations of humankind are both present and extinct. A place that exists of both infinite wonder and infinite danger. It's called Animga Fluxx, and you're the pieces of scrap that have landed here.

^{_{JUNK TOWN}}

Information

Considered to be the last bastion of civilization before a long stretch of incalculable and unknownable wilderness, Junk Town marks the "arrival point" for that have found themselves in Anigma Fluxx. Once a thriving Welcome Center, it's now fallen into disrepair. The semblance of knowledge and culture still rattles around in its ruins, mostly through Recall Screens. Their sentience once learned and recorded the events from those that had travelled from other realities. Unfortunately, something's corrupted them, and their thirst for knowledge has become far darker.

Artefacts are incomprehensible devices, powered by transreality siphons using its technology to rewrite reality on an atomic or subatomic level. Even to someone who understands a great deal about technology, most artefacts appear to be more magic than machine. They have a wide range of uses and costs. They distort the reality around the user, affecting them in a way that would seem unnatural in any other setting. This means that one could not use a large amount of them. The abundance of artefacts can lead to reality collapsing in on itself to squash the problem of it being tampered with in excess. Not that one would want their body so impossibly altered as to not even resemble a sentient mass of particles.

Yet, despite all that. it's odder for someone to be without an artefact than to be with.

Apologies that this took a little longer than I originally said it would. I decided to flesh things out more as to not give you guys bare bones. Anyway, here it is! If you have any questions, please ask! I'll probably keep things open for a week to allow character sheets to be worked on and edited as you have the time, and questions to be answered as I have the time!

For anyone else that is interested and wasn't tagged, the game is open for you to apply, as well! I never catch anything in interest checks, either.

Thanks! I am a giant slut for graphics and dividers. I know that my brain checks out if I see a blob of text, and I would be a hypocrite if I didn't apply some aesthetic.

Oh, and people can place their sheets in the OOC. If anything, gives an idea of what people are working on. I just like the link in the end, so it's easy for me to find them. I am blind af, sometimes.

I'll be getting started on a sheet tonight, I'm sort of debating on which of my characters I want to use but I'm excited!

THE DOOR

Traveling on quiet backroads, Luke had his window down and listened to the birds chattering through the woods. He had a radio station on when he thought he heard a small cry. It sounded so close. In an attempt to confirm what he heard he turned the radio off and slowed the vehicle to a stop. It was between a grouping of trees at the edge of the woods to his right that he thought he saw movement. Another cry let out and the foliage around the group of trees shook. The sound was unusual, which is what drew his concern. It sounded like it could have belonged to a small child or a wounded dog, strangely enough.

Eyes locked on the spot where he saw movement, he reached for the truck’s handle to get out of the vehicle. With a flex of his wrist resistance of the door disappeared. His body was already in motion to step out of the truck. Without the road to be found beneath his feet when he expected it was gone, he fell onto his left shoulder. To his shock he found himself far away from any semblance of a wooded area, let alone anything of this world.

With a grimace Luke slowly got onto his feet. The ground beneath him was white. Streams of mist defied physics by rising up into the ether above. The horizon was filled with a calm and soothing light. Before him was the silhouette of a canine of sort, perfectly motionless. It was as though it called out to him, beckoning him to follow. Behind him, a perfect reflection of reality framed within a circle. All he would have to do is turn around and step through the portal. His truck was running and the birds continued to sing their songs.

STATEMENTS

Kurt Garrison
Neighbor and Friend, Owner of Great Falls Supply Co.

”Luke is a great neighbor. Pretty quiet but friendly. Always says hello and asks how we’re doing. We’ll hang out from time to time and watch baseball or something and catch up over beers. The last I knew he was leaving his driveway in his truck. Looked like he was going to the park nearby, maybe. He likes to go there to walk and clear his head.”

Natalie Vaughn
Mother, Part-time Florist

“The last time he answered his phone was a few days ago. It’s not like him to not get back to me within 24 hours if he’s missed a call from me. Ever since his father passed away, which wasn’t long ago you see, he has been even more withdrawn than usual. I just… I can’t think of where he could have gone—and without a trace? It’s not like him.”

Milly Lewis
Professional Home Designer (often refers clients to Luke for carpentry work)

“Luke and I met at the tool shop in town, you know, Great Falls Supply Co.? I think his neighbor, um… Kurt, I think it is, owns it. Anyway, we sort of clicked after I found out he worked as a carpenter. I gave him my card and I refer clients to him when they need any wood work done on their home. He’s handsome, quiet, reserved. It’s hard to get anything out of him sometimes. I tend to keep the conversation going when we talk. He’s single as far as I know, but like every other guy in the world, sometimes dropping a hint just isn’t enough.”

TRAITS & ARTEFACTS

◈ ◈ ◈

CARPENTRY:

[+1 Speed ; -1 Cool] Luke must be very precise in his craft. Mistakes tend to frustrate him though; mistakes usually lead to having to redo something.

IMPROVISATION:

[+1 Mind; -1 Cool] Going back to his profession, Luke has learned different tricks and methods to make things work. If something doesn't work the way that was anticipated he becomes frustrated and starts over.

HARDENED:

[+1 Body ; -1 Will] Working as a carpenter requires a bit of strength, especially if using larger pieces of lumber. He has been known to help chop down trees at the request of others. As a result, he helps someone and also helps himself by getting free lumber. A drawback is that he finds it hard to ask others for help.

LAST KNOWN LOCATION

Eden was last reported to have been seen running after a bus near the James St Bus Stops.

POSSIBLE DESTINATION

Based on the route of the bus Eden was seen trying to catch up to it is deemed unlikely that she at that time was intending to head back to either her place of residence or attempting to vacate the city.

KNOWN ACQUAINTANCES

Kathrine Williams
Mother
Single parent to Eden Williams. Has admitted to having a strained relationship with her daughter.

Marnie Westover (Missing)
Best Friend
Marnie and Eden are reported to have been good friends when they were younger. It is possible that Marnie was Eden’s only friend in childhood though this is unclear. Marnie also went missing under suspicious circumstances, albeit she disappeared two years prior and as part of a larger instance of mass disappearances.

- -- LINE BREAK -- -

RELATIONSHIP TO PREVIOUS MISSING EIGHT

Eden was supposedly good friends with Marnie Westover who disappeared in the Caulder's Hollow mass disappearance incident two years prior. Marnie Westover's last reported location was the Williams house, though they were later cleared of suspicion. Supposedly the incident spooked the Williams household so much they left Caulder's Hollow.

THE DOOR

The bus door was described to be shifting in an organic-looking fashion at a ludicrous speed. Supposedly it appeared to go through cycles of rapid "evolution" before backtracking and trying new paths as though it were trying to work out the best way to be a door. The described configurations for the most part mapped to relatively mundane door designs, though apparently there was at least one with teeth.

STATEMENTS

Kathrine Williams
Eden’s Mother
“This… this is probably all my fault… I should have paid more attention, been a better mother. Since my husband passed our relationship hasn’t been great. I didn’t think it bothered her so much, but that must be why she ran… I can’t think of where she would have gone. I should have paid more attention. I should have… I’m sorry.”

Carl Sanders
Busdriver, Last known witness
“Look this is gonna sound crazy, but I swear I saw that girl last night. She was runnin’ to catch up to me bus and naturally, I stopped for her, didn’t wanna leave the girl out alone after dark, certainly not as late as it was. Anyway, I was just bout to tell her off for trying to come in the rear exit when I noticed there was something fucked up bout that door. It was shifting all organic like, like an alien or somethin', but really fuckin fast. Kept on changing what it looked like, saw some kind of sci-fi space door, a couple real fancy-looking ones, and somethin’ I’m pretty sure had teeth, bunch of other ones too, but it was goin' too fast for me to get a good look a mosta’ them. Didn’t see where your missin’ girl went unfortunately but I'm telling ya I saw her. If I had to guess she probably ran from the freaky fuckin door thing before it disappeared.”

Proffesor Carl Sanderson
Teacher
“She’s always been such a good student. Paid attention, did her work on time, and asked great questions. I always did worry she might be a little depressed though, she could get very quiet at times and didn’t seem to make many friends. Seemed to get upset over pretty trivial mistakes too. Even so, I can’t say I expected her to run away, it just doesn’t seem like her… Apologies for not being able to provide anything more concrete.”

Scrawny:

[+1 Speed; -1 Body] Eden is by no means large, quite the oposite in fact. What her small frame lacks in size and strength however it makes up for in speed and manuverability.

Anxious:

[+1 Speed ; -1 Will] Eden is constantly plagued by a sense that she isn't doing enough, that she should be doing better. This feeling drives her to work harder and faster but constantly pushing herself can become too much for her at times.

CLOTHING

(Modern, comfortable clothing seem to be his go-to. Friends describe his style as being "not quite flashy" and "not quite easy to ignore". He was prone to wearing steel-toed boots due to the nature of his work.)

JEWELRY

(Eyebrow/ear piercings.)

SOCIAL NETWORKING SITES

(Did not seem to use much social media, although he had a fairly active Twitter where the majority of the posts seemed to be between drunken rambling and political arguments.)

ANY PHYSICAL/MENTAL/MEDICAL CONDITIONS

(Diagnosed with BPD and pyromania in his late teens. He was attending therapy for his alcoholism before he disappeared, his therapist noted that he had abruptly stopped answering his phone at least a week before his actual disappearance, this was attributed to his disorder.)

LAST KNOWN LOCATION

(CH Motel, last seen pacing outside with a cigarette and seeming agitated before making his way back inside.)

POSSIBLE DESTINATION

(Uncertain of where he was likely going, family describes him as "distant" and "prone to wandering". His sudden trip to North Dakota struck a few people as being odd to begin with, it seems he only informed his step-brother of the decision.)

- -- LINE BREAK -- -

KNOWN ACQUAINTANCES

(Holly Greco)
(Mother)
(Primary care-giver throughout childhood, Holly seems quite attached to her oldest son and was reduced to hysterics when told that he could not be found. A deeper look into the relationship between her and Keandre reveals that at times, things seemed quite strained and that she seemed to have a lack of understanding for him and his emotional patterns. Further conversations with Holly reveal that she seems to suffer from many of the same vices that Keandre did, at times she was hardly able to collect herself when spoken to due to how drunk she was. Overall, Holly Fontain seems well-meaning but not very motherly.)

(Clement Roux)
(Father)
(Relationship with this individual seems near nonexistent, he was apparently entirely absent during Keandre's childhood and when an attempt was made to contact him, he could not be bothered to speak on the matter of his only son's disappearance.)

(Angelo Greco)
(Step-father)
(When contacted, Angelo Greco appeared to be better put-together than his wife, almost superficially put-together. A clean-cut gentleman with a thoughtful demeanor, he was easy enough to speak to in regards to Keandre's absence although he had an almost blase approach to it. While Keandre's mother almost refused to acknowledge his psychological problems, Angelo almost seemed to fixate on them. The relationship between Angelo and Keandre does not seem strong.)

(Elio Greco)
(Half-brother)
(Elio is a soft-spoken young man, seeming to stumble over his words at every turn. His relationship with Keandre seems strong despite how distant Keandre seems to be from the rest of his family. Elio speaks of his older brother as if he is his role model, he also notes that he is the only member of the family that Keandre contacts frequently. He was the only one to know about Keandre's trip to North Dakota.)

(Adam Donovan)
(Friend)
(Keandre frequents the bar Adam works at, the two seem quite close and Adam describes him as "a good kid but kind of f*cked up". Adam describes Keandre as often being morose or angry with little in between, he also describes him as being honest and steadfast. The two seemed to have rarely spoken outside of the bar but there was nothing but good blood between them.)

(Michael Kent)
(Past Employer)
(His relationship with Michael seems very shaky. Michael seems to have little good to say about his ex-employee and the history between them seems to be fraught with arguments.)

- -- LINE BREAK -- -

RELATIONSHIP TO PREVIOUS MISSING EIGHT

(Farrah St. Pierre was a friend of his before her disappearance, although it does not seem they were extremely close. He appears to have been fond of her.)

THE DOOR

(The hotel door was briefly described as being "burning, crumbling wood", it was practically caving in on itself. There was a reported feeling of tangible heat on the air before he disappeared through it.)

- -- LINE BREAK -- -

STATEMENTS

(Elio Greco)
(N/A)
("I think- I think Kea always felt sort of out of place growing up. He didn't think he mattered as much as me or- or maybe he didn't think he mattered at all. He's kind of- I'd say he's sad. He doesn't talk about how he feels much but he's always asking about other people. He has such a temper though! One wrong word and he- well- he just gets so mad. You should have seen him when he came out to my mom and dad, he went from calm to just-- He wasn't good at um- "healthy emotional outlets" but he- I don't think he would leave because of our parents or well-- not for good. He's left the state before, never for um- very long but he always came back. He likes his apartment here. He's got cats.")

(Adam Donovan)
(Bartender)
("Odd little f*cker, he comes in here about four times a week, sometimes more. He's started a few fights, usually takes them outside though, like he's doing me a favor. It's like the kid doesn't want to get blood on my floor or something. He's good company on the slow days, he'll talk you through the night but it wouldn't surprise me if someone tried to kill the guy, he didn't really know when to keep his mouth shut. He was way too honest, just said what he thought with no heed on whether or not it would piss someone off. Sometimes I'd be like, "Kid, you're gonna get shanked if you keep that up," and he'd respond with some cocky bullsh*t. He never got shanked but he got pretty close.")

(Michael Kent)
(Contracting Agent)
("He wasn't much for conversation, didn't seem to like me. He's one of those types, you feel me? If he doesn't think you're worth his time, he doesn't bother with you, but that was fine if he was doing his work. He was so erratic, he would disappear for days at a time, refuse to answer his phone. It was exhausting having to deal with him. Moody, like a rebellious teenager. I was sort of glad when he stopped showing up.")

KNOWN ACQUAINTANCES

Darius Keith, MD
Father
Dr. Darius Keith, commonly reffered to as "Dr. DK", is Ridgeview General Hospital's Ophthalmology Department Head and acting Chief Medical Officer. While he is a doting father to his only daughter, Zionne, he maintains a strict decorum with her while at work and can sometimes seem to be more demanding towards her compared to the other residents in training in his department. He agreed with his wife to allow Zionne to go on a vacation to their log cabin in Michigan and requested for her to pass by Caulder's Hollow to pick up a painting that Peter H. Vaughn meant to gift him before his disappearance. According to him, he last saw his daughter in his office in Ridgeview General Hospital when she got off her 12 hour duty shift.

Celina Keith
Mother
Proprietress of a small, local bakery called Bakeology. Despite having hopes that her only daughter would follow in her footsteps and eventually take over her business, she was nevertheless happy that the young woman took after her father. She frequently visits the hospital to bring her baked goodies to her husband and Zionne. According to her, she last saw Zionne when she brought her food during her 12 hour duty shift in Ridgeview General Hospital.

Angelina Lee
Bestfriend
One of Zionne's bestfriends who moved to China when she was 18. She promised to come back to Los Angeles but eventually decided to stay in China to help her family. She sports the same triple octagon tattoo on her left cheekbone that she got the day before she left Los Angeles, a tribute to her friendship with Zionne and Irina. She is in constant communication with Zionne through Whatsapp until the day she disappeared.

Irina Chekhov
Bestfriend
Irina is one of Zionne's bestfriends who moved back to Russia when she was 21 to pursue her dreams of dancing. Eventually, she got an offer to join the Bolshoi Ballet company and has been living in Russia ever since. She sports the same triple octagon tattoo on her left cheekbone that she got the day before Angelina Lee left for China, a tribute to her friendship with Zionne and Angelina. She is in constant communication with Zionne through Whatsapp until the day she disappeared.

RELATIONSHIP TO PREVIOUS MISSING EIGHT

Peter H. Vaughn was bestfriend to Dr. Darius Keith and godfather to Zionne.

THE DOOR

There were no known or any witnesses found to corroborate Zionne's disappearance nor have anyone reported any unusual or unnatural sightings of a door or any possible doorway that may have appeared where her car had been found.

- -- LINE BREAK -- -

STATEMENTS

Darius Keith, MD
Department of Ophthlmology Head, Acting Chief Medical Officer, Ridgeview General Hospital
- “Yes, Zionne is training under me in the Department. Hmm... I believe the last time I saw her was a few days ago, here in my office just after she got off her 12 hour duty shift... Have you found her?”
- “A gray 2021 Chevrolet Blazer LT, yes, that's her car. It was a gift I gave her early this year... You found it where? Abandoned? ...Yes, she was on her way to Caulder's Hollow."
-"Taking a vacation was her mother’s idea. She’s been complaining about frequent headaches lately. That happens
if she’s stressed. She’s probably burned out and I'm partly to blame for it. That's why I readily agreed with my wife’s suggestion. Zionne planned to go for a long drive to Michigan, to our log cabin there. I asked if she could pass by Caulder’s Hollow on her way. A selfish request. My bestfriend, Peter, had a painting he wanted to give me before he disappeared... Pardon me. It still upsets me that he hasn’t been found yet... Anyway, I asked her to pick up the painting. I was expecting that she'd say no. Her godfather's disappearance two years ago devastated her. But she agreed to it. Perhaps she wants closure... or a chance to find out if Peter left any clue of his whereabouts.”
- "Peter and Zionne spent so much time together when I had been too busy building my career. Truth be told, they were probably closer to each other than we were. She was also very close friends with his youngest child... a daughter that sadly passed away. Her death broke Peter and he eventually moved away. We kept in touch but Zionne received more letters from him than I ever did.
- "Is there a connection between her disappearance and Peter's? If it has then there's no one else to blame but me. I sent her there. It's my fault she disappeared."

Celina Keith
Mother
- "Please tell me you've found her... No, no, I haven't heard from her at all. It's been a day and she's never went this long without at least telling me or her father where she is. Even her bestfriends have no idea where she is... Oh, their names? Angelina Lee and Irina Chekhov. Both of them live overseas."
- "I brought her and her father bread and some other pastries when she was on duty. It was her last duty before her road trip to Michigan. Her car was found near Caulder's Hollow? Yes, her father asked her to pass by and pick up a painting Peter wanted to give him. Did anyone see her get out of the car? ...What do you mean nobody noticed her? A girl with blue hair is not difficult to notice... I apologize. It's just that, she's my only child. How can I not be agitated?"
- "Yes, I believe she's honest with me. No, of course, she's never told me everything. Everyone has their secrets to keep. But, no, I don't believe she has any dark secrets she's hiding to herself... No, she's never been depressed. Though she's been having frequent headaches the past few weeks and she hasn't been sleeping so well. Stress induced and work schedule related. We've seen this before when she was still in med school. That's why I suggested he let her go on a vacation. He means to turn her into the best eye surgeon she can be but sometimes he's like a slave driver. And my Zionne never backs out of anything no matter how difficult or challenging. But occasionally, she needs to unwind. And this is one of those times...But not to the point of her disappearing. Please, please find her."

Amelia Perry, RN
Chief Nursing Officer, Ridgeview General Hospital
- "Zionne? Well, she’s hard working and stubborn just like her old man. Always puts the hospital and the patients first. Her father is extra demanding towards her. I see that she sometimes struggles with the expectations but she always rises to the challenge. We all have high expectations that she'd someday sit on the chair her father is sitting on now."
- "That blue hair and facial tattoo though... she might be as brilliant as her father but patients might be turned away by her unusual appearance. Those hands, however... Those hands are no doubt a surgeon's hands."
- “The last time I saw her... Ah, it was a few days ago. She just finished her 12 hour duty shift.... Yes, I heard from her father that she's missing. Well, she did say she was going on a short vacation before she left. Maybe she just took a quick detour. If anyone deserves a break, it’s that girl.”

Ivanna Moore, MD
Fellow Resident in Training
- "She's the golden girl. Even if she slacks off, I'm sure she can get away with it. Her father's Department head AND Acting Chief Medical Officer anyway.
- "Jealous of her? Me? Of course I'm not. Why should I be jealous? She's good, I admit. But I'm better. And just look at how she looks. Blue hair? Couldn't she have placed that tattoo somewhere less conspicuous? Would you want her as your surgeon?"
- “Missing? No, I have no idea where she went. We work together, sure, but I don’t really care to know where she is 24/7. I’m sure she’ll turn up eventually.”

George Hudson
Ridgeview General Hospital Patient
- "A brilliant, brilliant doctor. At first I had my misgivings. Why would they assign a trainee to my case? But, boy, was I proven wrong. Turned out she was Dr. DK's daughter. She never flaunted it, even refused to admit it. Good genes. My eyes are so much better now because of her."
- "Her appearance? Even if she dyed her hair neon yellow, it doesn't matter. Her skills speak louder than her appearance."
- “She’s what? Missing? Hold on, hold on, let me remember the last time I saw her... It was a few days ago... Yes, that’s it, she came over to my room and visited me right before she got off her duty. Told me she’s going on a short vacation to visit family. I told her it’s about time she got some rest and relaxation. She smiled and told me she’d come and check on me as soon as she got back... No, there was nothing strange about her or her behavior. She's always been pleasant even though it's obvious that she sometimes lack sleep.”

Angelina Lee
Bestfriend
NOTE: Interview done through video call
- "She disappeared? What do you mean disappeared? Nobody just disappears into thin air. Was she kidnapped? Have you searched everywhere? Wasn't there any witnesses? ...okay... okay... I'm sorry... I'm calm now. Okay, you can ask me questions now. How long have we been friends? Well, we've been friends since we were kids and even when I moved to China, we remained friends. We even got the same facial tattoo the day before I left. It's supposed to be a promise that Z, Irina and I will remain friends forever. It wasn't hard keeping in touch. We chat everyday on Whatsapp."
- "Describe her...She's loyal, sweet, caring and understanding. Also crazy stubborn. She's the type of person that would keep on trying no matter what until she succeeds... Work? Well, I haven't really seen her in action cause, you know, I moved way before she became a doctor. But from her messages to me, I think while she's stressed with her training, she actually enjoys it."
- "The last time we chatted? It was Saturday night around 9PM... Saturday morning for her, should be around 6AM. She told me she's going on a long drive to their log cabin in Michigan but would be passing through Caulder's Hollow on her way there. She said her father asked her to pick up a painting that Uncle Peter was supposed to give him before he disappeared. It was suprising that she'd agree to do it. She was the most upset when her godfather disappeared. That was the last I heard from her. I called her several times but she never answered any of it... Yeah, sure, I can send you a screenshot of our last conversation." (See Attachment #1)

Irina Chekhov
Bestfriend
NOTE: Interview done through video call
- "So that explains why she wasn't responding to texts or calls anymore... Yes, her parents called me up. And yes, I was in contact with her just before she left her house. It was on Saturday. I think it's around 7AM in LA. It was 5PM here in Moscow. I was busy in a dance rehearsal so I don't know much about the details of the trip. Angie later told me that she was going to the family's log cabin in Michigan and would be passing through Caulder's Hollow to pick up a painting for her dad...a screenshot of our last conversation? Sure. I'll send it over." (see Attachment #2)
- "Uncle Peter? Of course I know him. He's Z's godfather and Uncle DK's bestfriend. We used to hang out a lot at his place when we were kids, or at least until his daughter died. I don't know why she did but we stopped going to his house after that. Z was so upset when he moved away. Just like when Angie and I moved away too. That's why we all have this face tattoos. It's to remind us that no matter how far we are from each other, we'll always be friends. We all got it the day before Angie flew to China. You should have seen our parents' faces when we came home with it. I was grounded for a month."
- "Of course Angie and I didn't try to text her while she was on the road. When Z goes on a long drive, there's no texting until she gets to where she's going. That's how it is for her. I think maybe that's her chance to be alone and think about things. Especially if she's going to Uncle Peter's house in Caulder's Hollow. I can only imagine what's going through her head...if his moving away upset her, his disappearance devastated her. Yeah, Angie and I got so worried that she hadn't contacted any of us after a more than 24 hours. I tried calling her several times just like Angie did but she never picked up. Please find her."

Zionne’s Stat Sheet

◈ 𝔹𝕆𝔻𝕐 ◼◼◻◻◻ ◈ 𝕊ℙ𝔼𝔼𝔻 ◼◼◼◼◻◻ ◈ 𝕄𝕀ℕ𝔻 ◼◼◼◼◻◻ ◈ ℂ𝕆𝕆𝕃 ◼◼◼◼◻◻ ◈ 𝕎𝕀𝕃𝕃 ◼◻◻◻◻◻ ◈

TRAITS & ARTEFACTS

◈ ◈ ◈

ASPIRING:

[+1 SPEED ; -1 BODY] Zionne is on her last year of residency training. She learned the craft mainly from her father and a handful of his colleagues, respected eye surgeons from their own subspecialties. She has developed her own techniques through assisting and observing this group of doctors, making her hands dextrous in performing micro surgeries. She believes that there is more to learn and strives to continue improving herself as a surgeon. However, due to always being in the operating room, she is not at all sporty.

METHODICAL:

[+1 MIND; -1 WILL] Through years of study, she developed a good clinical eye and medical know how through systematic assessment, especially when it comes to her specialization, the eye. However, study and training gave not much leeway for rest and relaxation making her vulnerable to the temptation of vacation and recreation.

FOCUSED:

[+1 COOL ; -1 BODY] Training in microsurgery taught her to focus on nothing else but the task at hand. It honed her to drown out all other external factors that could distract her. Do it fast while doing your best and nothing else matters had always been her motto while in training, making her level headed despite being under pressure. Constant training of the mind, however, left her weak to other worldly temptations.

INVENTORY

• Penlight: A small pen like instrument that provides a source of light commonly used to assess the pupil size.
• Swiss Army Knife: A small multi-tool pocketknife given to her by her father. Just in case.
• Smartphone: For communication purposes. It has a full list of emergency contact numbers.

EDIT: Okay, that should be it for now. If I keep on re-reading it, I will keep on adding stuff. I will re-edit after it's review.

[psych0pomp]

Woo! I'll start looking these over. I'm excited!

I probably won't get back to anyone tonight with character sheet review. But if you have any lore questions, feel free to shoot them my way! @Kyrisse I had just PM'd you when I saw your post on here. Apologies about that! I had a busy day at work, but I'm off this weekend. So, I'll be able to thoroughly look everything over.

And no rush to get something out, I'll keep things open at least for a week. But I'm glad you guys are already giving me sheets.

I probably won't be making a character, myself. I think I'll busy myself with NPCs and GMing things. So, you know, you guys can play "collect the NPCs" like it's game show. Kidding! But it's totally doable.

I don't know that picture looks pretty good to me. The real question is why polaroids are getting used so much in 2021.

It's... uh... thematic... um... uncanny valley to suit the RP?

LAST KNOWN LOCATION

Jin was last seen outside what was the family restaurant at around 9pm. The return of Mara had prompted him to return to the site of her disappearance. Some say he was drunk, others, just inconsolable at the news his daughter had not been seen for two years. Either way, he was asked to leave.

POSSIBLE DESTINATION

Many believe that Jin has just up and skipped town. There's even a rumour brewing he's taken the young Ricky with him.

KNOWN ACQUAINTANCES

Seong Sang-Hyun
Family, Brother
Sang, the only family member to stick by his brother Jin. They aren’t close but are in contact. Sang has helped set his brother up after his release from prison.

Seong Ji-Dae
Family / Sister
Ji, mother of Do-Yun and sister to Jin, the two originally had reconnected just after the disappearances of both their children. Though, over time, the reminder of the pain they both shared proved to be too much. Ji wrote a letter to Jin upon his release, delivered by their brother Sang.

Mark Butler
Probation Officer
Mark is a good man and a good cop. Too many times has he watched the system create monsters out of misunderstood men, with them being released back into society like a fish onto land. Mark does his best to not only ensure his parolee’s don’t skip town but actually turn their lives around.

Ricky Hightower
Friend
Ricky's a nice but somewhat odd kid, a signature of how much the world has changed in days gone by. Nevertheless they're the only one who's treated Jin with any respect, figures he should return the favour.

STATEMENTS

Seong Sang-Hyun
Brother and Site Foreman for Welders & Son Construction
“Despite everything you’re probably seeing in his file, my brother is a good man. You gotta understand what it was like when we were kids, we didn’t have much choice and there was a family to feed. I know his wife's family had money but there was just a way of doing things, he felt like he had to provide not only for his wife and daughter but for us to. I know… I know that doesn’t excuse what he did but he did his time, he lost his wife and his daughter, he’s paid his debt to society and then some. I know my brother, he wouldn’t… he wouldn’t just leave us, not like this. Please try to find him.”

Mark Butler
Probation Officer
“No, there was no indication or anything to suggest that Jin was about to or has skipped town. I’ve been at this job for 15 years and I know a runner when I see one. The man just came across as… broken I guess is the best word for it. I know he was keen to find out if his brother could get him a job on site and at least try to make something of himself. Sure, I had heard the reports that he was hanging around the restaurant but who can blame him for that? He just wanted to know what happened to his kid. That’s why I can’t believe he skipped, that was the only time he seemed to light up, at the mention of his girl. I think he was trying to put the pieces together but… well who knows what happened.”

Josephine Waiken
Wife of Deceased Partner in Crime, Single Mother, Welfare
“That bastard is gone? Good. I hope everyone will now know what a piece of shit he was. He framed my Johnny! We all know he was the one that pulled the trigger that night, hell, for all I know the son of a bitch was probably got my hubby killed up in that hell hole. If it wasn’t for him my baby would have a father! As for if I’ve seen him? Hell no, he should know not to come around these parts, my brothers would return the favour!”

TRAITS & ARTEFACTS

◈ ◈ ◈

HARDENED:

[+2 BODY ; -2 COOL] Maximum security prison is nothing but a concrete jungle where only the toughest survive. Dog eat dog, kill or be killed, no man goes through their time unscathed; so you learn to fight, to train your body and mind for it, always watching your back. There isn’t much talk in a place like that.

SOLITARY:

[+1 WILL ; -1 MIND] Twenty long years, can you imagine that? Do you have any idea what it’s like to be stuck suffocating between the four walls of a box day in, day out? Life becomes a perverted groundhog day, crawling by at a snail's pace with every second feeling like an eternity. Everyone breaks, there’s no exception to that but there are those who adapt, whose wills become stronger over time as they reflect on what brought them there and the thought of eventual release. While at the same time there’s a piece of that place that they will forever carry in their mind.

PATIENCE:

[+1 WILL ; -1 SPEED] Then there are the times where you have to learn to pick your battles. Not every hill is worth dying on but a thinking man is often slow to react.
