This was something I had in mind myself, they'd totes capture him. Probably would just straight up grab him, or if you really wanted to go with your ideas, probably use a family member as leverage.

@Mr Allen J

Dunno about straight up grabbing him, Quent's been working through an associate to avoid having his identity exposed so far so maybe it'd make more sense if they set up an ambush using said associate. When can we start?

[Mixtape Ghost N]

Whatever makes sense. They could use the associate, then use his family as leverage to get him to do what they want.

When can we start?

@Zombiedude101

Whenever you want, I'm going to be free most of today (Though, I do most of my writing at night).

@Mr Allen J

Sounds fine with me. So... what, do we just work via a PM based collab or google docs?

@Zombiedude101

I prefer that we use something like Titanpad because google docs is such a chore.

@Mr Allen J

Sure thing. PM a link to me and I'll work with you on it.

.... Tiiiiime for a filler post!

[Mixtape Ghost N]

Just a heads up, I moved the list of characters to the character tab.

[ToadRopes]

OK I have been dismally busy this entire week but I'm definitely going to post tonight. -.-"

All good in the hood, homie, Jenny isn't going anywhere.

[Mixtape Ghost N]

Alright boys, I think it's time to announce that I'm going to be bring the two current arcs to a close soon. Now, to address your questions before you even ask them...

• What does this mean? Well, for starters, it certainly doesn't mean that I'm closing the RP. I'm just going to end the current arcs, then begin new ones.
  
• Why? Two things, really. 1). I don't really know what to really do with either arc other than pointless fights, or etc, etc. 2). I just think the ideas I have for the new storyline will be more accessible, and streamlined (and cooler) rather than two separate arcs.
  
• What will happen? ... I'm going to quickly end both arcs, and use a few twists and turns at the end of each respective arc to start a whole new storyline altogether. Everything is pretty much ready for the Fiend arc. The HoS arc is probably going to seem one-off, but I can easily kick the ending in motion after a few things.
  
• What will everyone else do? Just go along with it, I don't intend to Deus Ex Machina our ways out of this.

That's all folks. I removed Lihua/Michelle's post because it felt pretty pointless.

[BurningDaisies]

I'm aiming for a wednesday night post to extricate Anna from her current predicament. That should coincide nicely with closing out the HoS arc.

@BurningDaisies

Actually, for what I have planned, it requires the rest of the homies to get captured.

[BurningDaisies]

Oh! Well... I suppose I can postpone and experiment on her a bit more. =P

[Mixtape Ghost N]

Psssssst...

Use the sharks.

[Maxx]

Hey peeps. I've already told Allen about this, but I haven't mentioned anything here. Because I am currently getting ready for college and don't have very much time to write, I am taking a short hiatus from the rp. Once things calm down and I have more time, I'll come back. So don't worry, you'll see my sexy sexy face again someday.

Jack is slightly obsessed with his personal matters and his personal interests which in fact might interfere with decisions yet always he will find a way for both sides to benefit from his gain, yet not much benefit and he will listen to people with authority although he dreams to one day rule over them, he likes to be casual and just with his decisions but he likes to be as stealthy and levelheaded as possible.

Abilities

Power Class:

Elemental (Energy: Darkness and Light)

Power:

Jack has power over light and darkness, allowing him to increase light or completely douse light, he can manipulate shadows to his will mostly for entertainment, cruel entertainment at that but entertainment is all the same to some, he can turn himself into a shadow to conceal himself or travel faster along the land using this ability to infiltrate stores to steal things and get away without being caught, he can also can affect fires by increasing the intensity of the light and or douse the fire completely and Jack can also absorb light and heat but not shadow, if he wants to although at a cost he can turn himself into a humanoid shape of either fire, light or shade although when he is a shade he is still in human shape yet he had shadowy skin and can blend with darkness.

Limits:

He can use his powers of dimming and intensifying light at will, but when he turns into a shadow he becomes fatigued and or sick but minority's sick, when he absorbs heat he can heal himself or add that power to his own strength allowing him a little bit more manipulation over his powers.

Weaknesses/Drawbacks:

Since Jack often spends time out at night he usually squints during the day he often has a hard time focusing but he is at the moment adapting to light it can hurt him if he is a shade or a shadow and if piercing light touches him but dim lights and sunlight doesn't affect him that much although it make him sweat more in the shadow realm so he wears a lot of deodorant (I know TMI) and he is usually tired most of the time.

Other:

Jack Idolizes famous mafian figures, and loves watching mafia movies.

Jack is a minor Kleptomaniac but it is only minor.

Sample Post:

Optional

[Spoopy Scary]

People who are good of heart don't generally steal things or do what they can to serve themselves and to achieve power. People usually call that sort of thing "evil". You know, the thing you said he wasn't.

@Spoopy Scary

I mean that he is in all respects a person with feeling and a heart, but he is out for himself mainly stealing only for gain partially because I was going to add that he is sort of a kleptomaniac.

@Blackmist16

- His personality section is rather contradictory imo. Read through it and think really hard about it.

- His backstory doesn't make sense either. It leaves out a few things that should be filled in. Like you just started off by saying he was kicked out of his house. You didn't say what he did, or how he was even like.

- I want to know where/how he became good at thievery/shooting, you left that out of his backstory.

- I... honestly don't understand his power section. It's all over the place which gives me little clear idea as to what he can do. Also, that's not how fire works. Fire is a reaction that produces light, rather than being made out of it.

- I don't like Darkness powers.

- You need to work on your grammar a bit. A lot of your paragraphs are run on sentences. Use periods more than commas.
