Corrected and Connected

So I think for new years, my resolution is gonna write more. I barely do any writing by myself and I want to try and concentrate more on doing that, rediscover why I liked it.

That combined with the fact that since the site rebooted, almost all of the RPs I've been in haven't gotten off the first page (for a large variety of reasons) means I'll very likely be taking at least a large hiatus from the site. Even when I'm the GM, I can never be bothered hounding people for posts, which means a lot to me regarding my own level of motivation. So I'ma do my own soul-searching away from here. Maybe I'll be back, maybe not.

Just wanted to let this group in particular know, 'cause out of all the folks out there, you guys are the bestest :3 Good luck in the future with... I dunno. Like, everything.

Of Gods and Men - A Deity RP (CLOSED)

..."Hey, you alright?"...

Cat

This is... The gallery, wasn't it?

What had happened? Cat had been studying the paintings, of course, and then... the lights went out... right? And then... Nothing. She was drawing a major blank. Obviously if it had been under her own power, she'd have never elected to sleep on the floor. Thankfully it was just some dust that easily wiped off, but she still got the shivers thinking about it. Who had put her here? The obvious culprit was one of the other people laying around her, just a handful compared to those who had been in the gallery before. Most of the people around her were younger than her - children, really. With one notable exception, she didn't think there was anybody who could strongarm her, not to mention everybody else here as well. And that wasn't even taking into account the people absent from the museum. Of course, Cat had come here alone, so it wasn't out of the question that she'd be left behind, but these young kids probably had family with them, or at least some form of guardian. They wouldn't be left behind so easily.

Too much to think about right now. She needed to do something.

There was a young boy and girl who were already awake, but it looked like she'd been the third in line to regain consciousness. The young boy... had perhaps woken her up?

"...Yeah. I'm fine." Cat had gotten her bearings. There was no reason to be scared here. And neither of these two children could have knocked her out, so there was no reason to be suspicious of them.

"I guess you two don't know what's going on any more than I do, huh." She rolled through her options in her head. She'd like to get everyone... almost everyone... up and on their feet in case anybody knew what was going on, but somebody needed to take stock of the room, look for clues, etc. What was the right course of action? It took a moment, but she come to a sort of conclusion.

"Listen, do you two mind seeing about waking the others up? I'm... not the greatest with people, I don't want to scare anybody. I'd like to take a look around and see if I can figure out what's going on." She didn't know if taking charge of the situation was the best course of action for her; these kids didn't have any idea who she was, probably, and had no reason to listen to her But if anybody was going off clue-hunting alone, Cat would rather it be her and not them, for safety's sake. She'd stay close by if anything happened, though. Just in case...

Will get a post up before too long. Gotta do some groceries first.

Here comes the hyyyyyyype

I sort of doubt it. I think I can post it fine, though...



I dunno. If it doesn't work, it doesn't work. It's probably not a huge hassle to just follow the link. You can always save it and upload it to imgur, if you wanted.

She's accepted. I see what you did there with her last name xD As for the question of Co-Gm, I would love to have you! I mostly wanted someone to help me make sure that say the characters don't magically find a way out of the room without solving the puzzles or such. Speaking of puzzles, if you have an idea we could use i'm all ears ^^ It's even better that you know about the game. So I would be very happy to have you as my Co-Gm!

@XxLyraxX

I'd be happy to help out in that case. I'll see if I can brainstorm some potential puzzles etc for you to use, and I'll help keep everybody on track.

World Of Colors

~Appearance~
A pure-white girl who gives off an aura of stern detachment, as though she is looking directly through you with her bright red eyes. Cat stands quite tall for her age at just under 6 feet, but is quite skinny for her height, like a tall, slender blade of grass or a sunflower. Still, because she's so tall (and combined with her stern, vacant stare) she can come off as fairly intimidating to young children or even nervous adults. Somehow, people always get the impression that she doesn't care about a thing in the world, even though the opposite is actually closer to the truth. She dresses in a fairly lax manner, and her signature clothing item is a cat-eared hoodie, the hood of which she almost never lets down. If she has taken her hood off, it can only mean she's ready to play hard ball.

~Name~
Catherine "Cat" LeBlanc

~Age~
16

~Gender~
Female

~Rose Color~
White

~Why are you in the Art Gallery?~
Cat is an art lover, and even an artist herself. However, she has recently begun to lose her passion for painting. She has come to the gallery in hopes that she can find inspiration again.

~What is the one item that was brought with you?~
Cat always carries a small white handkerchief with her to spot-clean any possible stains. She hates getting dirty.

~Likes~
--Art (painting, mostly)--
--Being in the dark--
--People who don't judge her for her appearance (though she reluctantly likes being called cute, and likes cute things.)--

~Dislikes~
--Getting dirty--
--Being in a large group or crowd--
--Strong-looking guys (young boys and guys smaller than her are okay.)--

~Hobbies~
--Painting--
--Singing--
--Night walks--
--Spending tons of time inside her own mind. (She does this even while doing other things anyway.)--

~Fears~
--Overly dirty, rusty, or old-looking rooms--
--Men and boys (unless they don't look strong or threatening)--
--People thinking she doesn't care about them--

~Personality~
Cat is a strange individual with a lot of inconsistencies (as befits an artist.) She is always seen with her pure white hoodie, but can't stand getting dirty. If even a bit of dirt gets on her outfit and she thinks it won't come off, she gets angry, and even deranged. She is always acting passive, but is immensely protective of her friends, and will be the first one to step in front of somebody who is being threatened, even though she's scared of tough-looking guys. She is always thinking about lots of things internally, even when talking to others, which is what causes her distant stare. This leads people to believe that she doesn't care about anything. In actuality, she is incredibly loyal and will help her friends in any way she can. She doesn't talk much, or emote much, but it's usually quite scary when she does show emotion, because it means she has either been sent into a blind fury by some dirt, or else she is sternly protecting her friends. Though she doesn't really say anything about it, she's usually pretty good at seeing when other people have problems, and like a dog or a cat, she will try to stay close to comfort them. However, because she doesn't talk about this habit, it can just end up being confusing to the person involved. She loves being alone and in darkness where nobody can see her, but conversely hates having the spotlight on her or being in the middle of a crowd because it feels like everyone is judging her, or is scared of her. She has a secret love of cute things like miniature animals and objects, or stuffed dolls, and secretly longs to be cute herself, even though she knows she is more 'cool' than 'cute' considering her height, age, and lack of emotions.

~Biography~
Even a perfectly normal family with perfectly normal lives and a perfectly normal daughter isn't without its own problems. Such a family is surely hiding secrets. In the case of the LeBlancs, their only daughter was supposed to have a twin brother, but he was lost in infancy. Because of this staggering loss, the entire family dedicated themselves to preserving their perfect nuclear family (or at least the outward image) so that they wouldn't run into any more problems. Catherine was supportive of this goal as well. She wanted her family's image to stay perfect and clean, even as a child. So when she started having problems like bullying, anxiety, and depression, she kept it entirely to herself. For a lot of years, she channeled her problems into painting and singing, and when she couldn't sleep, she would go for walks alone to clear her head. But as she got older, her bottled emotions started creating more problems. In one major incident, she once got so mad at a boy for spilling paint on her in art class that she sent him to the hospital with a broken arm. Her teachers were stunned, in disbelief that this was the same girl who always kept to herself and never spoke a word. Later that week, all of the boy's friends ganged up on her and beat her up behind the school. She didn't say a word about this to the teachers or her parents, merely taking a bath to clean herself up when she got home and acting like nothing at all had happened.

Now, at age 16, she has lost her passion for most things she used to be passionate about, primarily her art, which has been stuck in a rut for ages. In going to see Guertena's supposedly transcendant art, Cat hopes that she can reignite the spark of painting within herself, and once again find a way to channel all of her negative emotions that she otherwise doesn't know how to deal with. She couldn't possibly miss this exhibit for all the world.

Edit 2: Also, if you feel you need a co-GM, I could be up for the task. I like to think I'm extremely familiar with Ib's lore, setting, gameplay and what-have-you, and I've GM'd in the past. If you don't need any help, that's also fine. I dislike doing work
