@Mistress Dizzy

Sorry about life, but glad to see another person is still interested. Our lovely GM put quite a bit of work into this after all.

[Imperfectionist]

I'm still here! Sorry about the silence, I've been neglecting the Guild in favor of my tabletop games... I might be running too many, but writing for them is so much fun! I don't know how many WoD fans there are on this site, especially new WoD, but Changeling: the Lost is really cool. The flavor, the stories you can make with the changelings and their enemies, mixing changelings with mages (Ascension mages, not Awakening, which doesn't help with the complexity of writing these games), there's some great storytelling you can get out of it. In addition, I'm concurrently GMing three separate Pathfinder games, two of which I'm writing from scratch and the other I'm almost completely rewriting... Yeah. :P Been a little busy. Anyway! All I need to do is get words onto the page for my characters, and I still plan on being a part of this game. I'll be watching the IC and working on the sheets tomorrow, so hopefully I'll be able to hop in just a little bit late.

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you, RL crises and GM'ing a from scratch Star Wars: Edge of the Empire campaign have taken their toll on my time as of late. Here's my character profile WIP, a pleasant gentleman thief with an cheeky grin and a wallet in his palm. Check your pockets, it's probably yours.

-----

Name: 'Felix' (assumed pseudonym, original name undisclosed) Age: 25-80 (various answers given when questioned) Gender: Male Race: Drakkas (possibly Human hybrid or offspring of such, due to less pronounced physical characteristics than baseline Drakkas) Physical Description: 5'4" with a slim build and compact frame, Felix trains regularly to keep himself in good physical condition but not excessively. Pale blue skin ("moon-touched" as he calls it) with long white hair usually tied back in a single ponytail to hide his toxic tendril. Physically he appears in his late-20s or early-30s but his exact age is uncertain. His horns are less pronounced than many of his species and easily hidden under appropriate headgear, Felix occasionally makes use of make up to disguise his skin tone and pass for a human. While he appears to wear a variety of well tailored suits and outfits to suit all occasions in reality Felix is usually clothed in his adaptable NVP suit which has been programmed with a number of fashionable forms he can switch between as required. He prefers long, billowing garments, such as robes, cloaks and long coats, which allow him to easily conceal any number of not entirely legal items. In emergencies the suit can switch to a fully enclosed form-fitting armour which offers protection from incoming attacks while allowing for high mobility and speedy withdrawals. Personality: To say Felix is a troublemaker is at once an overstatement and an understatement. While the fact things tend to be more interesting while he's around is true, he never intentionally sets out to cause problems, even if that's exactly what he does. A born wanderer and game player, Felix is never happier than when he's living life on the edge, whether that leads him to playing high stakes card games in the middle of a room full of heavily armed gangsters or gliding off of a rooftop to escape pursuit as long as his pulse is racing there's a smile on his face. Enhancements: * Seductive pheromones (racial ability); * Neurotoxin tendril (racial trait); * Cyberport located on his left wrist; * Disguised cybernetic left eye with neural implant capable of measuring distances and calculating trajectories Skills: * Expert game player and gambler; * Skilled knife combatant and pistol marksman; * Skilled acrobat and trained Parkour practitioner; * Amateur magician and prestidigitator; * Amateur skill at disguising himself with preparation; * Practiced storyteller and manipulator; * Practiced locksmith and pickpocket Equipment: * NVP Suit disguised as a flowing robe but capable of morphing into body armour at a moment's notice, can be used as an impromptu glider to reduce falling velocity in a pinch; * Holdout Needler with tranquilizer rounds usually stored in the folds of his robes, when the robes morph the pistol is stored in a hip holster instead; * Mono-filament dagger (unstable NanoMass) usually stored in the folds of his robes, when the robes morph the knife is stored on his lower back Bio: It's uncertain exactly where 'Felix' first came from, and everyone who asks gets told a different story. What's known for certain is that he first came to the Galactic Coalition's attention about fifteen years ago when his alias was linked with a number of low-level confidence scams, all of which were later dismissed when the wives, or other female partners of his victims, requested that the charges be dropped. Since then 'Felix' has been a constant on law enforcement watch lists, although he has never been successfully prosecuted for any criminal activities. An unashamed ladies' man, Felix will be the first to admit that he has made misuse of his race's pheromones for personal gain and favour on many more than one occasion, and it often seems as if his first response to conflict is to try and seduce his way out of it. Over the years this has led him to a number of incidents with jealous husbands and lovers, which has given him plenty of opportunities to practice street fighting and gun play. His second choice is usually to 'strategically withdraw' when faced with overwhelming opponents, and he's learnt to read whatever environment he may find himself in in order to best plan his line of retreat. Four years ago, after being innocently caught up in a civilian transport crash, Felix was patched up by a clandestine undercover law enforcement agency in exchange for his assistance infiltrating an underworld crime ring. Given access to computer interface technology and a new synthetic eye was thought at the time to have been enough incentive to recruit Felix to the agency, but once the operation was over, and his obligation fulfilled, he instead chose to head off on his travels once more. Recently associates of the crime syndicate have been looking to have words with Felix, and so he's come around to the idea of offering his services to any helpful parties who can offer him safety in numbers, even if only temporarily.

Nice to see another character, and a cool Drakkas no less :D

[SimplyJohn]

Having read the other bios, a battle veteran and two 'wide-eyed innocents', I thought a gritty urban character would bring a useful addition to the team. Especially one who isn't as comfortable in open combat as the rest of the party. With all these big guns strutting around it should be nice to have someone who can open a door without blowing it off its hinges. :)

@SimplyJohn

Very true, variety will allow more interesting development and interaction :3

[SimplyJohn]

The only problem now will be working out how to get him onto the ship. He's currently loitering about the very open and public areas of the station and avoiding walking down dark alleys in the hopes of finding a crew to get him safely out into space and has little, if any, understanding of the wider implications of the mission.

[Silver Fox]

Maybe the people running the mission catches him, and pretty much force him on the mission otherwise death penalty. Since they think his skills would be useful? Or he could happen to sneak aboard their ship to get away?

[SimplyJohn]

I think the sneaking is more his style. Felix has always been very careful not to actual break the law in any way they'd be able to execute him for, and even if he had he'd just find a way to talk his way out of the problem rather than knowingly signing up for a potential suicide mission.

[Silver Fox]

Then sneaking may be good. Or he could talk his way to get on the ship, not fully aware of how dangerous this mission probably will be. I mean how bad could it be when it's got two tiny pretty boys on it?

[SimplyJohn]

He could possibly spot the two 'kids' and assume it's a refugee transport heading to safer territories, and it's not until he's already managed to get himself recruited that he finds out the truth.

[Silver Fox]

Sounds perfect xD Adi: I am not a kid. I'm a modified synthetic life form created for the soul purpose of serving my master. Cooking, cleaning , and satisfying any hormonal needs. You're like 3. Adi: Irrelevant.

[Hawlin]

I updated/edited my cs a bit because of the new system making all of the old weird coding show after editing. On that note, found a better pic (no bunny ears or tail, but I still like it). Edit: COLORS! Edit2: Kaite and Felix's personalities seem like the type to clash... E2.5: Geez, its like Kaite can't get along with anyone. (Or at least none of the newcomers) :T

@Hawlin

But Adi just wants to serve you!

[Hawlin]

>_> <_< "So zeht iz...not a person?" *slowly pulls pencil from clipboard and pokes Adi in the forehead* "Hello?" "Adjfjrbdnfjsksldbf!" *clings to ceiling*

[Silver Fox]

Well he's soft and squishy like a person. *pokes Adi's soft fleshy like arm* Adi: Pleasure to be of service. *stares up at the person the ceiling with neutral blue eyes*

[Hawlin]

*Cautiously watches, curiously gauging Adi's demeanor "N..no, zeh pleasure iz all mine..."
