Night of the Hunt - a Bloodborne RP

@Dark JackMhm. I'm feeling a bit better lately. Will get my post out c:

Shelter

Cash Kattner

_{Location: Stockbridge Academy, Teacher's lounge.

I'll take that lack of a response as a "no", he thought.

Cash continued surveying the faces of each individual in the room as they said their pieces - each saturated with various signs of worry or fear - as was to be expected. If any of them had been hurt, he was sure they'd not be quick to hide it. They'd have more important things to use their energy on.

Another student in the room in particular caught his eye. He was a young fellow, to be sure, and was the only other black kid besides Cash himself. He looked like he'd been on the verge of tears as he cleaned his glasses with his sleeve. Cash wondered what was running through his head.

Fear. Uncertainty. Hope, that this group of older students could somehow protect him, maybe? Maybe.

Cash casually moved over to him, finding a seat on the edge of one of the lounge's tables, with his back towards most of the group except Dontae. He leaned forward from his seat, offering his hand to the younger individual in a vertical handshake. "Sup man?" he said in a lower voice, accompanied by a friendly half-smile. "I guess none of us came very prepared for an apocalypse, huh?" he reassured him, letting the contents of his pocket - being his phone, keys, and a lunch card - fall from his hand and onto the table beside him.

He turned to look at the rest who were conversing - exchanging names, arguing amongst themselves. Some coming up with plans. They were all obviously stressed - and were feeling rushed for time, he surmised. But time might be on their side. They weren't going to get dehydrated or starve in a few mere hours - and it was entirely possible that a few of the.. cannibals would wander off, potentially out of the building if they chased someone out. Could leave certain hallways relatively clear. Hopefully.

It was good for them to distract themselves from the shock anyway.

Cash turned back to the other, younger student. "But that's alright. The name's Cash - how about you?"

Gotcha! Having multiple lives does seem to be quite the advantage xD

Ahhh, I see. That is good to know! I imagine then that among the Hunters Raine is a formidable one, given his sheer amount of experience in comparison? Something I may not have expected 😅

Gotcha gotcha, thank for clarifying.

Also I was expecting a few extra years more xD looks like Provostus is the big boy in town >:3

Night of the Hunt - a Bloodborne RP

Raine Provostus

Provostus' gaze didn't waver from the frame of the elevator's supports as the shrill screech ripped through the air in the distance. The sound was that of a Cleric Beast, no doubt. A worrisome proposition, to fight one, but fortunately for the trio, it was a distance away - if its wail had anything to say for it. So in duty, the veteran hunter raised his weapon towards the lift as it drew near its resting place.

To find the platform empty - aside from a worn hat.

He lowered the weapon again to his abdomen.

Only now did the hunter raise his chin to look into the distance toward's the beast's roar. Shortly thereafter, another less easily distinguished cry was heard. Potentially a Crow, but best to be mindful regardless. His surveille once again turned to Adelicia, the much taller individual eyeing the girl from the corner of his eye as he recalled what she said moments before in a seemingly defiant mumble. He didn't respond, opting instead to latch his weapon over his back again before drawing a sharper implement from his belt. One that looked like a hugely oversized fork. He laid a thumb upon a small mechanism on the side of the hilt, and pressed - causing the weapon to transform audibly with several chnk chnk noises, accompanied by the sound of metal sliding neatly against metal. The end result was something much more akin to a thick trident with two prongs⁽¹⁾.

His gaze shifted to the slumbering giant, briefly examining its sinking and rising form as it snored, unaware of their plotting. The hunter looked at Victor. "I'd rather not bring it along." he said begrudgingly, before his eyes twitched over to the girl, then back again to his fellow hunter. "We can leave it."

@Dark Jack Hmm...I swear one of us brought it up(I thought it as Ashgan too). Maybe...I'm crazy? *sweatbrow* Haha.

Anyways, what do you think about posting characters in the Character tab?

Also how long, roughly if need be, would you say Victor has been a hunter?

By the way, whoever shared the "No one well save you" song by Aviators, I'd like to thank you xD I've been enjoying hearing it every once in a while on my playlist.

On a more important note, working on my response.

Iliad City: A Magical RP in an Original World (Resuming)

Withdrawn

Kadir

Kelly Kadir

_{{Color = C1CDCD}}

Age: 18

Bio: Son of Kaarle Kadir and Ulyssa Kadir, Kelly is an only child. He is born to a culture-rich family - one who's piety for magic has brought them far in Iliad City. The Kadir lineage is one who values all forms of magic - seeing great beauty and value in even the most subtle uses of it. This philosophy extends to Kelly's parents as well as himself, seeing them to be very invested in his magical education. The only problem is - the family line's magical prowess is noticeably lacking in raw magical power. But they don't let it hold them back - they study to understand most forms of magic, and use their knowledge to turn the tide of battle by using an opponent's own magic against them, as opposed to enforcing their will upon the magic-devoid world around them. As a result, the lineage has seen success among their peers, and have become respected by some.

When it comes to Kelly's parents, his father is a Philosopher-bookwriter by occupation, and his mother an administrator of Ishtar Academy. As a result, his drive and discipline are well-tuned tools, allowing him good grades in all subjects. He is well-read, both by will of his parents and himself, and hence is intrigued with the world outside of Iliad - even though he has never seen it firsthand.

The family are descendants of The Illuminated Poet on his mother's side, and as such, are wary of intruders to their close relations and surroundings - seeing as though they would likely be relatively easy targets for assassination attempts. Hearing that this is a possibility is a worrying thought for Kelly, but he isn't going to let it stop him from performing as well as he can in his study to become a figure of magical innovation.

Mundane Skills: Wordcraft, Cooking, Armed and Unarmed Martial Combat, Runecraft, Tattoo Artistry, Philosophical Studies/Psychology, Magic Study.

Magic: Kelly follows the path of his lineage, due to partial necessity. Since his connection to magic is weaker than most, he has to innovate - rather than impose himself on his environment, he uses the energies of his opponents against them. When not simply inverting the power of his opponents, it can be strenuous for him to call upon other forms of magic from his many studies - but he has learned to somewhat compensate for this by using conduits through which to channel his magic. A scepter, chalk/runecraft, and symbolic tattoos being among the most common means of this.

• Mage's Linecraft - Kelly uses simple artistry to augment his casting, allowing him a variety of magic options despite his lineage. This linecraft comes in several forms - Chalk arts, Tattoos, and even written scriptures, among others. These magical assists usually do not stand for a specific use of magic - though can if it is required - and can be utilized for many different situations, but are limited by their shape. One may notice that Kelly has some of these markings on his hands; he has one on each side of each hand, all in the form of a perfect circle with intricately detailed borders - thought the tattoo of the left palm is noticeably more complex. It isn't common, but when he is seen wearing short sleeves or no sleeves, two simple, thick-lined tattoos are visible around each bicep.
• Dark Enchantment - Although Kelly is versed well enough in most magic specializations, his uses of such are limited. Those uses he does employ could comfortably sit in this category, a hybrid specialization of Ishtar's Dark Arts and Marduk's Enchantment magic systems. Such a specialization is the only thing besides Linecraft and his counter-techniques that he trains regularly.
  
  • Intellect Drain - A rather brutal technique, Kelly combines the rune of his left palm with his Dark Enchantment training to deal a crippling blow to an opponent within arm's reach. Upon activating this spell, he begins to drain the raw intelligence from his victim, absorbing it for himself to increase his strategic ability and overall brainpower. Against regular people this is a simple incapacitation technique that leaves them drooling on the floor - however, other magic wielders can defend against it. Magically-inclined targets are able to keep the drain's effects at bay as long as they are mentally sound. Those suffering from dread, rage, sorrow, or other strong emotions are vulnerable. It is also quite easy to overcome someone by surprise with this technique. Victim's minds will rapidly regenerate after a couple dozen minutes, after which Kelly will lose the buff he attained.
  • Luster Purge - Kelly focuses on a source of magical energy, disrupting its stability for a very brief moment, before imploding its energy in on itself. This implosion eradicates all light in a ten foot radius of the target, leaving a dome of darkness for a minute or two. If the target was a magic wielder, they will feel an intense, distracting pain moments before the implosion - however, anyone caught in initial generation of the darkness dome will have all negative effects they are suffering purged.
  • Enchanted Mind - Kelly's piety for magic is almost like a veritable force when enhanced by his Poet's lineage - in fact, it is. As a result, his dreams and absent thoughts act as a shield for his mind - the cogs are constantly turning, coming up with new ways to utilize this cherished ancient gift - and this is all those who enter his mind will see. Furthermore, they act as a buffer against mental attacks.

Personality: Kelly is a somewhat stoic person - seemingly unaware of his own emotions at most times - and appears much more interested in the state of his surroundings than the state of his own assets. Be that as it may, his emotions are brought to the surface by his many interests - among them the strongest being Magic. You could say he adores magic - every aspect of it.

He is very polite, even to those he may have a distaste for - of which there are none, yet - making him a rather agreeable individual. As such, it's relatively easy to become "friends" with him, but he's a little on the socially-clumsy side - he doesn't often take into account his self in relation to his surroundings(socially), so you'd likely have to actual tell him you want to be friends for him to realize it.

When it comes to conflict, Kelly is not one to shy away. He takes disagreements on logically, and if it comes to arms, he takes them on strategically - a fitting state of mind for his skill set. He even finds himself enjoying a little bit of conflict now and again - as it opens up the opportunity for him to adore magic in its most unpredictable setting - combat.

Faction: Ishtar

Are you a Descendant of the Illuminated Poet?: Yes.

Terribly sorry about the wait for my post. Getting new jobstuffs situated lately, that accompanied by promised presences in certain RPs that've been in planning has spread me a little thin x3
