DEL HALE
Del had only woken up fifteen minutes ago, being ushered out of his room by some scientist or other telling him to look at some board thing outside. He stumbled out of his room and now found himself staring at a cork bulletin board with 'mission postings'. His half open eyes, practically glazed over from lack of sleep that night, scanned the board, slowly looking for his own name.
He found it towards the bottom, next to somebody else's. "Aquarius and Del". His eyes scanned the mission details, and he saw three pictures attached- His own, a picture of a little girl, and then a picture of the person they were going after... Aw, come on, working with a little girl? One of the few things Del had liked about being taken in by these people, even if it was only a few days ago, was that he didn't need to baby sit or really do too much work to keep himself fed. Now here he was, running an errand across the country to find someone else with the star, all while taking care of a little girl.
"Lovely." Del thought, walking slowly back to his room- well, perhaps the term room was a stretch. More like tiny mattress which he had to defend with his life against hordes of other star children who wanted more space as much as he did. He walked to his bunk, rummaging underneath, to produce a backpack with his civvies and a few other essentials- Deodorant, few packs of gum, spending money, the works. He shouldered the pack, heading towards the bathroom. Like hell would he be caught dead out in the city in his 'uniform'. Del figured he could reason with the higher ups that civilian clothes were the best idea. Wouldn't want to frighten the kid they were going after. Two kids in pseudo space age looking uniforms telling them "we are like you. Come with us, my child." didn't exactly give off the greatest vibe.
He stepped inside, quickly changing into his standard attire. As he stepped out he pulled he beanie on, drawing glances from people in their normal uniforms all around, staring at the kid wearing something different. he pulled his beanie lower and kept his grip tight on the skateboard, one hand on the shoulder strap of his bag. In the back of his mind he wondered if they'd be provided with plane tickets or if he needed to stage one hell of a road trip.
He walked through the halls, towards the kitchen to grab a cup of coffee- It'd been too long since he'd had one. He stepped inside, pushing quietly past two people and into the kitchen, making himself a cup as they stared at his civilian clothes. As he poured his black, tasteless coffee into the cup, the gravity of his mission assignment hit him. Who the hell was this chick? "Aquarius, don't switch anyone's souls." The image of a friendly little girl that Del held to in his mind was replaced in his mind's eye with a psychotic little girl who asked her daddy for a knife sharpening kit for Christmas as opposed to a Malibu Barbie House. He shuddered slightly and put the cuppa to his lips, taking a long sip, not stopping once.
"Right, breathing."" Del put the cup down, all the coffee drained down his gullet, remembering that he should probably breathe more or else he'd get a great number more of weird stares. He smiled awkwardly as the two other kids in the kitchen shuffled out after watching Del swallow a scalding pot of coffee in one go.

URSA
Ursa was trying to put the sniper rifle aimed directly at his head. He stood in the work out room, doing battle with a punching bag. Perhaps punching bag was a understatement. Per Aspera would probably go through a few hundred dollars worth of punching bags every time Ursa hit the gym if they used regular ones. They'd used regular ones, once- Suffice to say after about an hour they had a half dozen broken punching bags and Ursa wasn't even remotely tired.
Now Ursa unleashing his strength on a reinforced steel punching bag. Weighing in at a few tons, Unrsa knuckles pounded into it, the skin on Ursa's hands long cracked and bleeding from the sheer impact force, causing a boom that would resonate through the base if not for a reaosnable degree of sound-proofing.
"You tired yet Ursa? Been wailing on that thing for an hour." The sniper mused, keeping the cross hair trained on Ursa's head. It was Jace- Ursa's handler for many years, and one of the few who Ursa mayhaps have considered a friend.
Ursa shook his head and threw a devastating punch, causing a dent on the steel brick.
"Nice one." Jace commented idly. Ursa contemplated what would happen to a targets body if he did that. he pictured a body being viciously ripped in half like it was hit by an anti-material sniper round, like the gun that was being constantly aimed at Ursa's frontal lobe. he hit the bag again- again. Again. Harder. Faster.
"Slow down there, champ. If it was me I'd tell you to keep wailing, but the desk jockeys don't want you getting too 'antsy'." Jace said. Ursa watched as Jace's fingers twitched to the trigger, as if Ursa wouldn't notice. Ursa lowered his fists as a singular bead of sweat rolled down his forehead, he turned, slowly walking to Jace. Ursa now stood in front of the many, the rifle of the sniper pressed directly into his forehead, and he spread his arms and legs. Jace produced a pistol from his belt and held it against Ursa's temple, shouldering his rifle and patting Ursa down. For some reason or other they saw fit to assure Ursa wasn't carrying any weapons upon exit of the work out hall. Ursa wondered how he would even get a weapon in there while a sniper was kept on his head, just asking for any reason to pull the trigger.
"Clean as always." Jace put the pistol in his belt again as Ursa walked out the door, for the significantly older man to fall into step behind him again, handing him a Manila file folder.
"New mission, Ursa. Not like they usually give ya, though."
Ursa slowly took the folder, opening it and examining its contents. He and a high-class agent would be deployed for the Silicon Valley for the retrieval and subsequent extraction of another one with the star. The security chief would be going with them as well. Ursa wondered what about the one they were going after required such a show of force. Perhaps the kid had the capacity to create some kind of nuclear threat with that power of his. Providing weapons to terrorists? All possibilities.
"What's my ordnance this time?" Ursa asked in his first sentence out loud that day. This time he'd want a sniper. Probably some grenades and C4 to deal with whatever mechanical monsters the target would have protecting him.
"None." Jack said. "Higher-ups figure this is a more peaceful mission. Plus if things get hot, they say your fists would do all they work they'd need."
Ursa frowned softly, imagining Jace's brains splattered across the floor while his broken skull rested in a fresh hole in the wall. He shook the thoughts aside. That was no way to imagine a superior officer for a minor disappointment. He wondered when he'd meet the security chief. Moreover, he wondered when they'd hit the road...

@DocTachyon I was looking at the CS's and I noticed your spell words don't exactly follow the rules.

You have a fire element word and a water element word. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the GM said no opposite elements.

@Undying Curiosity

By that I believe he meant no opposite words in the same spell.

Infinite Story

As an arrow flew from his bow, Matt became vaguely aware that this would be around the time that school ended, for most people. Not Matt, of course. The school in his town ended earlier than most people's- additionally, he'd convinced his parents to let him not bother with school, now that finals was over. The arrow arced through the air, obliterating one of the starting monsters, turning it into what amounted to a fine powder. He smiled softly at his kill, and turned to see one of the creatures, large and rat like, was leaping at him. He smiled and side-stepped, causing the creature to miss and go for a tumble, rolling through the grass and slamming into a small rock. The creature got to its feet and snarled. Matt smiled and made a finger gun motion at it.
"Immolate." He said, the powerful word briefly infusing his hand with a reddish glow before darting forward, setting the small creature alight. It squirmed for a second, before the powerful level ten magic overcame its level one defenses and it turned to ash. Matt sighed softly, brushing off his avatars open robe from the dust of just over a dozen slain monsters. It was boring here, and the experience to be had at the starting town was menial, but he did have a reasonably good reason to be there. With summer starting, that meant a load of new players would be trickling in. Perhaps he could find a new questing partner among them. While Matt preferred to fly solo, there were dungeons that required two or more players.
In a few minute he trotted back to town, seeing the influx of new players with gaping mouths, staring at the shop windows with gear that was unholy-expensive, intended for extremely high level players. A few new players were beginning to find their way, drifting away from the shops of the high-level crafters and instead moving towards the tiny carts of the basic NPC shopkeepers, offering only the most basic swords and armor. Matt avoided them, hearing their chatter, arguing about which stats were the most important and jostling to get certain pieces of gear first, as if the NPCs didn't have a bottomless supply of the stuff.
He made his way through the streets, seeing some wide-eyed kid staring at two people viciously PvPing, neither gaining any ground. A cursory glance told him the kid was level 8. Between that low level and his apparent need to stand there like a sheep watching the PvP battle between random players told Matt all he needed to know. Matt continued to walk, looking for someone who might be closer to his caliber, be that through levels or through actions. High endurance sword user would probably compliment his talents, if he could find one...
He eyed a tavern up ahead, a sign denoting it as the 'Sleeping Wolf Tavern'. He walked closer, putting his hand up to call up a menu to he could enter the interior cell- A message came up in big letters. 'PRIVATE'. Matt cussed softly to himself and turned on his heel, choosing to look for a potential partner elsewhere.

So, if the IC goes up today I probably won't be able to post 'cause I'm gonna be hanging out with my girlfriend.

Infinite Story

@Undying CuriosityYes.

@DocTachyon You can add yours to CS tab as well.

Also, question, if all of you are level 10... how come everyone has super rare items? Just curious. I Guess my character is the only one without them. Just saying, you can add more to your character's depth and posts if you actually went and acquired these said rare items during the RP. Just an idea though.

@Lvl Down

I guess he's got super rare stuff because the term 'rare' can be interpreted many different ways. For example, in Skyrim, Unique weapons are considered 'rare', but you can find some of them from the first few levels.

Character

Name: Matt Benette
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Height: 5' 11"
Appearance:

Personality:
Matt is a prick. Well, most people call him a prick, anyway, but what you personally think of him varies person to person. Matt is extremely focused on video games, and is the type of player to steal loot it you're not quick enough to get to it first. he pushes real life people away in favor of games, and has gotten very good at them. He wasn't part of the beta of Infinite Story, but has researched every scrap of information released about it, and even slipped a tester some money to break their non-disclosure agreement and give him inside information. He's an extremely intelligent boy, but his brains distance him from people. he tends to talk very concisely with large words that may be formidable to those not armed with a dictionary. He doesn't like making friends, but he will align himself with those who he feels can get him farther in his games. He's not an evil person, but he can come off that way, as he operates primarily for his own goals and no one else's. But, he does understand the importance of the greater good, and will work towards such a thing if the need arises.
Bio:
Matt was born into a tiny town, so small and insignificant it might as well have been a pimple orf the ass of the United States of America. Nothing ever went on in the town, and it was the definition of mundane. Matt, from a young age, was always bored by it. he couldn't stand the mind numbing, incredibly easy lessons, or that nothing every happened in the local news. Around age ten, he started looking for some form of escapisim, something to tear him away from this boring reality. He tried books, they were nice, but they really didn't do it for him. TV came close, but he didn't feel like he was... Interacting with it. That's when he discovered video games. They gave him a way to vent his frustrations and be something greater than he was, even for a breif moment- and that's exactly what he was looking for. He withdrew from what little social life he had, preffering to stay indoors to be with his games. As soon as the VR Gear was released, he bought it and eagerly waited for the release of Infinite Story. He pre-ordered and picked it up day one, going home to immediately plug it in and play. On the first day he binged for 48 hours, and has been playing as often as possible ever since.
Other: His goal is to be the best player in the world, and he hopes to make his living the video games industry.

@RomanAria It's someone involved with his kidnapping. I'm leaving it open who it is in case someone is interested in making the character that was involved.
