Ha! This is shaping up to be pretty exciting.

@aladdin_sane

Isn't it thought? Anyway, I'm starting the next posting round. Hopefully our resident priest didn't get swallowed by the depths, and your 'money buddy' didn't get riddled with the rest of the civvis.

Off the keyboards gentlemen! (And ladies) Writing my post now, should take an hour because I am still reading.

Can't wait! Also as I was bored I crafted a biography of Hector Williams as he is probably going border on Secondary Character/NPC Antagonist. He is beyond redemption, so I do not care if he dies.

@aladdin_sane

Jumbo sized gun happy lunatic? sounds fun!

Also @Jasonhero, wasn't your dude at one of the buildings south of the northern entrance to yellowstone? There's like, 10-20 miles of road between there and roosevelt. not that I'm against him having potentially spent all that time somehow going in the wrong direction and leave him somehow within range there, hahah.

@Shoryu

Yeah, originally he was just going to be a throwaway NPC who talks to Pierre and dies in the first round off posting, but after putting some work into his dialogue I decided to keep him around a little longer to act as a minor antagonist for Pierre and perhaps the group as a whole. I have no idea what his powers will end up being (if he lives long enough to use them), so consider them a work in progress for now.

[oakman]

Sorry about not posting I fell asleep halfway writing, just woke up and going to finish what I wrote, will also incorporate the stuff I dreamed, more surreal effect.

Hector seems interesting, cant wait to interact with him, and Athene. @aladdin_sane

[aladdin_sane]

It is chill @oakman as I figured you were preoccupied irl. Sometimes the greatest roleplay ideas come when I am dreaming or when I am bored at work/class.

True words, I know it is common courtesy to keep a constant pace when RPing, but whenever posting becomes more an obligation than something you would willingly do for fun, it stops being fun. The greatest writings tend to be produced at the oddest times really.

Anyway, I liked that you added a bit of history to the world in Hector's bio. Helps add more depth not only to his character but also to the overall feel of this world we are recreating.

Ok enough blabbering, back to my post haha.

@oakman

I agree, thusly I do not rush anybody when it comes to posting...I have trust that whomever I am roleplaying with will respond when the inspiration strikes. Unless GM nerfs it I figured that a little pre-incident world building could not hurt; the thing to remember is we are not representing characters in a vacuum I like to think that the in game world existed before the roleplay started so therefore history exists...little things like the aforementioned adds flavor to the game.

@aladdin_sane

Agreed, also adding and creating history actually gives value to us altering said history. We can't just make a new world without having made an old one. We could still keep using flashbacks or similar devices to build both pre-green world and after as we go.

Also posted. Sorry if it is short, or long lol, can't really tell.

@oakman

Oh I KNOW! I hate that feeling TnT

also 'Before the green'!
I was silently considering ideas for a 'name' for this that 'fit' and was simultaneously not a spoiler of anything I have planned for the future! I believe 'The Green' works perfectly!

and ohhh, if only it 'was' just the coke.

@aladdin_sane

And very true! But I'll have to check what you did in the morning :D

That said! I've always said I wanted this RP to be 'group' run instead of 'just' me! So if other's like something and 'I' don't, chances are it'll get to stay anyway.

Isn't it funny? Democracy is most noticeable in smaller groups where you can personally see, and be affected by, everyone else's choices, as opposed to larger national/global groups, where the people with 'money/imaginary power' can manipulate things so you can't see what other people 'really' choose.

@Shoryu

Well you said the Earth was put together all weird so I figured some things would have been jumbled around and moved closer to each other while others were moved far away.

In reality I'm justifying me messing up out of want for interaction with somebody but eh, screw it xD

[JessieTargaryen]

I'm thinking about adding inhuman Strength to Jason's list of mutations. It would explain how he can hold that heavy sniper all day without issue.

Also I'm not gonna lie it's because I want him to do things like kicking doors off hinges. Like maybe about the same strength level as Captain America. So yeah.

Anybody against that?

@Jasonhero

Well, I'm not expressly against it, but actual sniper's carry those kinds of guns around all the time without 'super strength' XD heheh

[aladdin_sane]

Huh, slow day it seems...oh, well ce la vie. Am I safe to surmise that everyone is attempting to group by the flare.

[JessieTargaryen]

@Shoryu

Actual snipers use slings, stands, their spotter, and different means to do so.

But yeah, kicking doors in

@aladdin_sane Yeah, that's where those who posted went

@aladdin_sane

It was the most obvious source of direction, 'any' direction is better than wandering aimlessly... Plus, the 'cardinal directions' have been fucked up XD

[aladdin_sane]

I figured that everyone was going towards the flare; I was just making sure before we get into the thick of it. :D

@aladdin_sane

Of course some will clearly be arriving at different times from the look of things. I generally intend to wait about 2 days between each of my posts, unless of course everyone present gets their posts in quicker.
