Infected [Reboot]

As the infected creatures closed in on them, Mercy found herself divided from everyone as Chris, Tony and the pregnant woman dissappeared behind a wall of zombies, she felt her pulse quicken and her heart threatened to skip a beat. It was just her and the danger this time, nobody was going to dive in and save her sorry ass...not anymore. She had two choices at this moment, crumple to the floor and submit to an inevitable death or straighten up and deny her fate. With Ash's dagger gripped tightly in her hand, Mercy appeared to be frozen to the spot, forced to watch the horror unfold in front of her whilst her thoughts ran astray and her body refused to respond. She dropped her eyes to the floor in front of her as the pregnent woman was pulled into the throng of infected surrounding Chris and Tony, desperately wishing she could just block it all out. Her eyes flickered over Tony's abandoned pistol about the same time that something lurched at her. The walker brought its arms towards her, latching onto her right arm and tear at her skin with its yellow fingernails, snapping its teeth together in anticipation of gorging into her warm flesh. Decision made, with Ash's knife held tightly in her left and she quickly jolted it towards her attacker , the blade sunk into the creatures soft skull with ease and only stopped moving once the hilt was pressed against the walker's decomposing skin. With a shaky breath Mercy pulled her arm out of its grasp and gripping the knife tightly shoved the immobile corpse away from her and into the wall of moving corpses behind it. She turned sharply to search for the others, catching sight of Kaylah's shiny blue stripper dress she automatically focused on her first.

As an infected zombie launched itself at Kaylah, Mercy felt herself inhale sharply even as the other managed to avoid it, she'd been close enough to see the strippers foot turn at an odd angle that was no doubt painful. Her eyes flickered back to the sea of infected zombies, she could just about see Chris and Tony struggling further on. Without thinking it over she swooped down and grabbed Tony's pistol before sprinting towards Kaylah. Ducking and dipping her way past a few undead, she came up behind the runner that had launched itself at the stripper and buried her knife in the back of its neck effectively severing its spinal chord. "Cat's not killing anyone else" She stated, pulling her knife back just as the infected closed around the pair of them, pushing them towards Chris and Tony whilst separating completey separating them from Dog and Cat. The blonde could only hope the twins were able to make it to safety...and that Kaylah's dog was close by them rather than being with the twins on the other side of the thin wall of undead. Shoving her knife back into its holster at her waist and tucking Tony's pistol into the waistband of her jeans Mercy reached for one of the broken chairs next to her and Kaylah, the back of it had been ripped clean off, leaving just the seat behind with three legs left in tact it probably wasn't an ideal weapon but as the walkers closed in on them it helped to keep them at bay.

"Lean on me if you need to but we have to keep going" Mercy spoke to Kaylah moving closer to her as she bashed the seat weapon at the infected, sharp jabs seemed enough to push them back for a few seconds. And providing Kaylah stayed with her, either holding onto or not the pair of them would have steadily made their way towards Chris and Tony, just as they managed to make a path to the fire exit. "Kaylah's hurt!" She shouted over to Chris, seeing the other woman turn towards them. "Get her to the fire exit and I'll cover you as best I can" She added, grunting as the walkers put pressure on her seat weapon, pushing against her as their arms reached out trying to claw at her face. She was leant far enough back that they couldn't quite get a swing on her, but each time they forced her back she felt their filthy fingers drag across her skin. She knew she wasn't strong enough to drag Kaylah along with her, if she was to make a break for the fire door, running on her own was draining enough with her heart.

Providing Kaylah was with her, it didn't take Mercy long to get to Chris and Tony. It was a short trip but the blonde woman was tiring quickly, with the multitude of things going on inside of her it was a wonder she was still standing at all. With the gap Chris and Tony had made in the swarming walkers, Kaylah's dog should have been able to make a break for it if she was with them and Mercy was positive with a little assistance Kaylah herself could make it even with an injured ankle...though it was probably going to be tight. Jabbing her seat weapon to push back another walker she forcefully kicked another's kneecap making its leg snap backwards and sending it crashing to the floor...not that it caused the others much bother as they simply swarmed over it. Having decided to cover the others until they were home free, she would have been trailing behind if they made a break for the fire exit "You have got to be kidding me, take a hint and sod off!" She spat through gritted teeth, jabbing the seat at another as it tried to advance on them.

<Snipped quote by FaithsRose>

If you really need to change your name (ie. you want to change FaithsRose to something completely different because you really dread the name but you don't want to make a new account), you can request it to a mod, but if it's not critical (ie. me changing my name from NarayanK to just NK), then there's no real point in doing it. I'd honestly just stick with FaithsRose because I heard namechanging in the current state of the website is pretty hard on the mods/admins.

@NarayanK

Ah I didn't even know it was a possibility to be honest ^^' Thanks for letting me know that, in fairness my reasoning for wanting to change the name isn't exactly a dire one. It's a manageable circumstance so I wouldn't want to put any pressure on the mods/admins to get it changed <.<' I shall take your advice, stop complaining and stick to FaithsRose xD Thanks ^^

Mission Explorer: Return To Earth

@FaithsRose
Yes, that's fine. Thanks for joining.

@Aspen Wren

Great :D No problem, thank you for letting me on board ^^

Got two CS's done, hoping they'll be okay but if they're completely wrong or just have bits that don't add up let me know and I'll get to changing them asap ^^

Nizhoni Tecumseh

Character Name: Nizhoni Tecumseh (Niz)

Age & Sex: 24, Female

Species: Shapeshifter

Appearance:

Human

Niz stands at 5'8 and is of a slim/athletic build

Animal one

This is Niz's primary form passed down from her father's lineage.

Animal two

This is Niz's secondary form passed down from her mother's lineage. She reserves this for times of great need and as a consequence hasn't spent much time in this form.

Personality:

Energetic, friendly, independent and curious to a T. Nizhoni can be fairly hard work, she likes to talk and is friendly to anyone she meets. But she can often be too forward going for many peoples liking, she's a bit of a dreamer and doesn't always think before doing or saying things. Despite appearing fairly immature Niz is wise beyond her years and is capable of having good ideas...if she'd just slow down long enough to share them. If she gets an idea into her head nothing is going to stop her from acting upon it, she'll often do this without letting everyone else know what she's up to. As friendly as she is, Niz is an independent person and dislikes allowing people close to her, she prefers to keep things at a 'surface' level through distraction and avoidance techniques.

Past History:

Nizhoni is a descendent of some of the native tribes that resided on earth thousands of years before the mythical creatures of the world moved to Erellon. Her fathers ancestors hailed from a tribe known as the Shawnees and her mothers from a tribe known as the Navajo's. These native tribes were spiritual people who had close bonds with the earth and all of its creatures and were primarily human. Each tribe and clan within it would have a shaman or medicine man, who was able to converse with the spirits of the world, assist with curing the sick and keeping bad spirits at bay etc.

Although many of the tribe believed these men to be humans with unique abilities, they were in fact a variety of Shape-shifters. Though the stories of their origins have long been lost, when the mythical creatures fled earth these shape-shifters abandoned their tribes and took flight with them. Though to this day they still abide by and cherish certain traditions taken from the people they have left behind, they have adapted their beliefs to suit their life style on Erellon.

Niz is the youngest child of her parents, she has two older brothers who have always been rather protective of her even after one of them met his life-mate. She's spent most of her life working on her families land, helping to grow and look after the vegetable patches alongside helping her father raise and break horses. Alongside working on the farm, Niz made the choice to learn carpentry once graduating and is known for her tendency of making weird and wonderful things, all of which abide by the rules of Erellon. Niz came across her chibit four years ago, he tends to help her find odd bits and pieces around Erellon and rarely wanders far from her.

Requested Items

Her chibit, Shilah.
Crafting tools
Large bag
'Pop-up' tent
Carved bear totem
First aid essentials
Tomahawk x2
Sleeping roll
Tack and Blanket.

Pertinent Skills:

Carpenter - Though it isn't a natural path for her species, Niz is a carpenter by trade. Able to make an assortment of items out of a fair amount of raw materials, though her craftmanship isn't anywhere near as good as that of the elves, she was trained by an elven carpenter and is still able to make basic odds and sods.

Inventor - Niz is fairly good at making useful things in times of need and thinking up new designs. Often shunning blueprints, Niz likes to explore and make new things or useful things out of whatever she can find. She is also capable of making normal equipment, though after learning the trade has rarely stuck to the basics.

Natural Horsemanship - Niz is particulary adept at raising, breaking, training and handling horses. Her parents breed and raise horses on their farmland alongside growing core vegetables. Having spent the majority of her life tending the farm, Niz has gathered a vast amount of knowledge when it comes to matters concerning horses. Very at home in the saddle, Niz is a good stunt rider, able to perform acrobatic feats in the saddle and has excellent balance when on horseback.

Extra:

-Niz is afraid of meeting her life-mate, she doesn't like people getting too close and has got it into her head that she can resist it.

Honourable, resilient and brave, Hui-fang is a handy person to have around. Despite having a rather rebellious streak she is down to earth and level headed in distressful situations. She generally prefers to keep herself to herself and isn't fond of being overly familiar with anyone outside of her pack, though she'll generally be polite to everyone she meets and can put on a rather convincing front.

The Liu pack is bound tightly by family and tradition, often standing away from the main throng of Erellon's society. Arranged mate pairings is still a large part of the Liu packs tradition, pairings are made by the birth parents of young unmated lycanthropes and nine times out of ten the match will favour the male.

Hui-fang has spent her entire life learning what it takes to be an alpha female and has known since she was young who would be her life-mate. Though unable to openly rebel against her parents plans for her future, Hui-fang used her status to escape pack chores and get away from her pack for long periods of time. Her skills were learnt from an assortment of people within and outside of her pack.

Her main job within her pack has been maintaining good relations between the other founding packs and the rest of the Erellon society. In her spare time she would tend to the land, assisting in growing fruits, vegetables, herbs and flowers. Because non deadly but unfortunate things typically happen to her chosen mates, she is still un-mated much to her fathers dismay, still he always seems find another first-born male from one of the prestigious members of their pack to pair her of with.

Legends of Lavanya

Apparently still unfazed with the kitsune's terse manner, Crash grinned at her and inclined his head "Well then, it's a pleasure to officially meet you Kelly" He decided on quickly saying before continuing on. He chuckled slightly as to him she seemingly attempted to quell his embarrassment "Ah, now that is something I do not hear very often..." He smiled shaking his head slightly, a part of him wondered what Mizuki really meant by that though for once he had the good sense not to question her on it. Feeling the heat retreat from his cheeks he lowered his hand from his neck and quickly added "Pleased to know I haven't offended you too deeply...I'll try and keep it that way" He grinned sheepishly, unaware if his comment could be taken in a negative way...in his mind he was referring to the possibility that his clumsy nature would eventually make him put his foot in it...so to speak, though he'd forgotten Mizuki probably didn't know much or really anything about him.

He followed Mizuki and Prometheus down the hallway, looking around with wide eyes and careful not to touch anything as he moved. He daren't lift his hands away from his sides in case he accidentally broke something...As he entered the main room, the shapeshifter noticed the woman sat with some kind of spherical device near her. He didn't really recognise her outright as he hadn't actually seen much of Margaret back when the academy was still standing...no doubt Nikolai had been wise and kept the clumsy red head away from her. As she looked up at them, he offered her a friendly smile and waved his hand in greeting all the same unsure what to make of her fairly neutral expression. He only turned his attention away from Margaret when Prometheus turned his attention to a large screen.

Crash reached up and rubbed his cheek as he looked over the map of Europe, tilting his head to the side as it suddenly zoomed in on London. He listened to Prometheus and watched the screen at the same time, though couldn't stop himself from wrinkling his nose as he heard the British Museum mentioned...it was a place he'd been on his travels a few years back. He couldn't remember exactly what was inside though he recalled it being full of ancient artwork and objects...he wouldn't have pegged it as somewhere to hide a sword, he'd of thought such a thing would have stood out...enough so that he would have remembered seeing it. "Are you sure its in the British Museum? It sounds more like something you'd find in the Natural History Museum just across the way" He piped up once Prometheus had finished talking and the screen had turned blank. "And no worries I know the rules...I was there yesterday...haven't forgotten that yet" He murmured the last part before sighing heavily and drooping his shoulders a little.

His slump only lasted half a minute before he stood up straight and pulled a smile onto his face "Guess that'll make it easier for me to blend in" He grinned at Prometheus before glancing at Mizuki or rather the throng of tails that waved around her. "...do you have a way of hiding your ears and tails?" He asked her, raising one of his eyebrows as a thoughtful look crossed his face "I'm only asking because if you don't, I know how to get you something that'll help..." He quickly added lifting his hand to rub the back of his neck as he felt his cheeks color again, embarrassed yet again. He waited a few moments for the kitsunes response before turning back to Prometheus and giving him a hearty thumbs up "All packed and ready to go, Captain" he told him, before turning to look for the way out...about halfway across the room he turned on his heel and moved back over to Mizuki and Prometheus. "...where is the harbour again?" He asked, grinning bashfully and rubbing the back of his head.

---

Rain's ears twitched as she heard Vikki's response, feeling her forehead crease she muttered "Well that makes two of us..." turning her head back to the surface of the water, the werewolf carefully moved along the rail of the boat to investigate the new creature approaching them. She still heard Vikki's orders though she couldn't bring herself to obey them right away, if she could just figure out what the other creature was saying...

As the snake rushed through the water and rammed into the boat, causing it to heave to one side Rain sprung forward and wrapped her hands around the metal bars of the railing, pulling herself against them. If she hadn't of grabbed them she was sure she'd have flown off of the boat and plummeted into the ocean below them. She closed her eyes against the harsh spray of seawater as it whipped up the sides of the rocking boat and flicked off of the sea creatures giant tail, the spray thoroughly doused her clothes and hair. As the creatures head bobbed above the water, Rain lifted a hand from the rail gathering a ball of luminescent light into her palm she shot a concussive beam of lunar energy at it, hoping to daze it for a few moments.

By this point the smaller of the two creatures was close enough for her to see, as it yelled again the werewolf turned her head sharply to the side glancing over at the figure diving towards them. "You have got to be kidding me...." Rain muttered under her breath, hastily dragging her fingers through her hair to pull it away from her face so she could see better, careful not to gouge herself with her own claws as she did. Her forehead creased further as she registered the distressed look plastered across the aquatic woman's face. Don't kill Maruki? Her ears twitched as she listened to the people behind her as well Under Marcus's control?...viable...not necessarily obvious... She turned her head to look at the woman who had mentioned the beast was under Marcus's control, the blue haired woman felt her nose wrinkle as the speaker simply stated her opinion and leant back against the mast, such a simple movement yet it got Rain's back up and dulled her opinion of the other woman.

Pushing away from the rail the blue haired woman carefully picked her way across the deck heading for the small group as previously instructed by Vikki. Hearing a woman with snakes for hair ask the mercenary about weapons she toyed with the idea of intervening or not...however she was distracted by the otaku who had previously ignored or not heard her question earlier. As he walked forward and started firing blasts of some form of energy at the sea serpent Rain felt the blonde woman's words rip free of her throat. "WAIT! Don't kill it!" She snapped at Ryuu, baring her canines as she felt her lip curl back from her teeth. "The other creature, its a woman" She quickly shouted over the top of the shooting and the waves. "She keeps yelling at us not to kill it" She stated pointing over her shoulder at the sea serpent. "Until we know what's going on, keep it distracted but don't kill it" She snapped at Ryuu, her tone adopting an authoritative edge as if for a moment she was talking to a member of her pack rather than a stranger. In hind sight it was probably a risky thing to do considering she wasn't the one in charge, though in the confusion of the whole situation and because she was rather on edge herself, she didn't really think it over and allowed her instincts to kick in.

Pulling up near Vikki as she shouted at the aquatic woman, Rain ran the tips of her claws across her fingers turning to look back over at the blonde woman swimming towards them, listening for a response though at the same time she quickly added "She's nearly reached the boat, listening to her could help. This doesn't feel like a trap but if it is we can deal with it" The werewolf continued in the same tone, glancing at Vikki as if expecting her to challenge her idea "I'll cover this side" Rain pointed to the port side of the ship "Gunslinger's got that side, concussive rounds, keep in tight and don't spread around too much as you said, less chance of anyone being thrown overboard and less chance of hurting it" The werewolf was on a tangent, all attempts to bury her bossy side had been thrown aside. "Killing it does not benefit us...unless you intend to harvest it" The blue haired woman stated and questioned at the same time as she pulled lunar energy into her palms splaying her fingers in prepartion for firing her shots. Someone watch the front of the boat, another watch the back, two eyes on the side, all ranged fighters be ready to shoot wherever it surfaces...come on! This would be less precarious if we all just worked together The werewolf thought to herself angrily, barely withholding her thoughts on the matter.

Mission Explorer: Return To Earth

I'm waiting a bit and trying to get some new people on board. I will for sure have a post up tomorrow or Tuesday.

@Aspen Wren

Hey, I'm sorry if this is a little bit out of the blue ^^' was wondering if I could join your RP?
