Lea opened the door and walked into her new room with a nervous smile on her face. She'd seen boys and girls entering the same room before. Did that mean that she'd be sharing her room with boys as well? After closing the door behind her and turning around, she saw him. An albino guy, the one that seemed bored all the time. Lea sighed and walked toward the bunk beds, climbed up onto the top one and started pulling stuff out of her backpack. At the same time, she spared a few glances to Agni -- she thought that was his name, at least. It could have been Ignite or Ingrid.

Eventually, after a few awkward moments, she turned to look at him fully and spoke, "I'm Lea, are you a robot? That'd be pretty cool. I don't think I've seen you move your face yet." She remained nervous for a second, then giggled and went back to her things.

The problem with zombie fiction is that no matter where the characters are, once they're safe, it's over. This can happen as well inside the city, it's just harder and much less likely to end well.

I have no problem with the characters staying in the city, by the way. I'd just like it if there was an actual reason for doing so.

A couple questions: Is there zombie fiction in the RP world?

Does this RP have a hidden plot, or is it more of a sandbox?

I mean, that is kind of the point of a zombie apocalypse. Sure, our characters might think of finding a safe place, but the thrill of a zombie apocalypse is the whole "struggling to survive in a city with dead things that consider you a bag of potato chips and want to tear right in to you."

@Sola

Eh, I like zombie apocalypses where the characters are actually smart and try to survive. If one can get out of the city, then one should do so and consider arriving at their destination the end-game. Now, if there was a military cordon all around the city to prevent anyone from going out, that'd be a different story.

Godspeed!

Hey, living in the poor side of town had its advantages. The most important one was that since you knew all the thieves around, your chances of being mugged were drastically lower. The second, less important one, was that people tended to respect those who worked hard to get a better life.

Asahi was one such person, and nearly everyone in her neighborhood knew her. Whether they knew her because they were friends or because she’d given them a juicy ‘fist sandwich’ was another matter, but the respect was there.

She covered her mouth as she yawned and rubbed her eyes. She didn’t jump in surprise when the car engine nearly exploded, as she was used to the sounds now. This was one of the wealthier people in the neighborhood that was giving her a lift. Takeda was his name, and for some reason he liked to treat her as a little sister. She didn’t care about his weird mannerisms and actually appreciated how he sometimes went out of his way to lend her a hand when needed.

“You’re out early Asa-chan, what’s up with that?” Takeda asked, his voice raspy like it always was. Asahi could make out some amount of concern in his tone, though. Cute.

Asahi shrugged, “A lot of noise, y’know… I couldn’t bear it, so I quickly did my thing and decided to leave for school early.”

Takeda chuckled, “I have no idea how you keep a straight face while saying such things, it’s barely sunrise!” He said as threw her a smug sideway glance.

Upon seeing the look he was giving her, she felt her cheeks color, “S-Shut up, it’s very awkward so I try to, uh… You know-” She stuttered, “I-I just try to… Oh, just shut up.” She puffed out her cheeks and looked out the window at the fronts of closed stores.

After a long while, Asahi noticed the peculiar scent in the car, it was like a mix of smoke and gunpowder. “By the way, why are you out so early? Don’t tell me you joined those guys, please.”

Takeda’s smile was wiped off his face with that question, and he was silent for a long moment.

“Nah. I was out with some friends,” He looked at her for a moment and saw her skepticism as plain as the day that was just about to begin, “You know, bar-hopping and… Stuff like that.”

Did he really think she was that dumb? Still, she nodded and looked out the window again, noticing the car slowing to a stop in front of the school. Without hesitation she opened the door and jumped out, making sure that she didn’t forget anything.

“Thanks for the lift, Takeda! See you around.” She waved goodbye at Takeda as he took off, leaving her in front of the closed gates. Now she’d have to wait a while, but anything beats listening to her mom and her mom’s boyfriend going at it.

Godspeed!

Aella

Aella

GODDESS OF KINDNESS

Domain & Portfolio

Light (Kindness)

Without light, you are blind. When you are blinded, your heart shrivels and your soul withers away, leaving behind a mere husk.

Aella's the embodiment of the Light that allows you to See. When you allow her into your heart, you begin to see everything clearly. You see everyone's struggles, everyone's dreams, you cry the tears they're too afraid to shed themselves and feel compelled to help them achieve peace.

Aella doesn't use her powers in a flashy, overt way, instead going for the subtler route; having the skies part in the perfect moment and direction to reveal the path to a nearby river when you're thirsty or to a nearby caravan of pilgrims when you're wounded and bleeding.

Alignment
Neutral Good

Personality
Aella sees herself as one more pawn in a futile, endless game of chess played by those beyond her comprehension. This belief, however, pushes her toward striving to be the oasis that sates people's thirst after a day of travelling the desert that Life is. In a world where you can lose everything in the blink of an eye, Aella will always be there to give you a safe place to weep until you find your feet once more.

She believes in the strength and valour of mortals and strives to show each and every one the kindness and comfort they need. She is the shoulder you cry on when all seems futile, she is the river in which you clean your wounds after a fight with the local bullies, and she is the fruit-bearing tree you find after days of being lost in the forest.

Finally, Aella's a peaceful Goddess and will never willingly harm another being, be they evil or not.

Goals
Aella seeks only to bring peace to the world and to help make life into a pleasurable experience rather than one filled with hardships and loss. She doesn't think in terms of alliances or politics, so more often than not she'll help whoever asks anything of her, as long as the request doesn't involve hurting anyone else.

Appearance
Aella takes on the appearance of a blonde-haired, blue-eyed, beautiful seven-foot tall woman donning a marvelously crafted set of armour and with a pair of huge, angelic wings. Her face always wears a soft expression and her body gives off an aura of serenity and pure love that moves even the most battle-hardened warrior to tears.

Creations

Life

Animal life

Squiggles: Little fuzzy flying balls with a stinger and petals on their backs. They do the job of Bees.

Plant life

Basic Flowers: Basically all kinds of basic flowers, like roses, tulips, etc.

Locations

Aella's Retreat: A small cabin located in a valley hidden in Anathema Heights to the northeast of the main continent. The valley itself is populated by squiggles, trees and flowers so far and the only entrance by foot is a narrow crevasse. Dangerously close to Corrupted territory. Created with the goal of offering it as a get away spot to overwhelmed mortals, cause she's nice like that.

Godspeed!

@Frettzo That's awesome! Fun fact actually, the glowing red balls in his horns are actually his eyes. My brain still struggles trying to comprehend it for some reason.

@Lord Zee

That's interesting! I thought they were just decoration and that he saw via "godly sense" or something like that, hahaha

Godspeed!

@Lord Zee, I made a thing for our beloved Larry, for the moment when sprites inevitably try to get to know him better!

What unsightly creatures!

I don't know how to draw mouths ok :(

Godspeed!

@Frettzo No I wouldn't be all mean like that. If you want Aella to be there, go for it. But if you haven't already, you should probably read my last post as it goes into some detail about the future of those mountains. If she does stay there, maybe she could halt the advance of perfection, who knows? It's your decision in the end, I could see some interesting developments come out of it as well.

@Lord Zee

Cool! We'll see what happens then. It's just a dang cabin anyway. If you wanna corrupt the valley while she's off patting some caveman on the back, you can do it. It only adds to the story and the characters, so I'm stoked for whatever ends up happening.
