Never Normal - a Superhero Vigilante RP

Hey, Wraith just has a unique way of making friends, that's all :P

@Blazion It's the main character from Tales of Vesperia.

Akame ga Kill! - An Alternate History (Lasrever & Otaku95)

Skye

So, this was the imperial capital. Tall buildings, high walls, tyrannical government. The ultimate tourist destination! Fun for all the family! Why not come on down? Get beaten up in the streets, robbed of your last coin, and executed for not bowing low enough to your imperial masters! Well, at least that was what the flyers said. The flyers that Skye may or may not have been sticking up around the city to annoy the guards. You couldn't prove anything.

Besides, a girl needed to find some way to entertain herself. She didn't have any money to do it, so she figured the next best thing was to express her creativity. Sadly, the guards just didn't seem to appreciate art, as was evidenced by the way some of them were yelling. Just don't look suspicious, Skye. she hurried away from the guards, completely failing to not look suspicious. In this part of town, though, the most suspicious thing would be not looking suspicious at all. They'd probably just assume she was a pickpocket or something else not worth chasing after.

Still, there was the problem of having nowhere to sleep. Apparently, if people thought you were a musician, you couldn't walk into an inn without them wanting a tune. She'd seriously considered showing them exactly what she could do with her 'instruments', but revealing her imperials arms seemed stupid, even for her. Where was she, anyway? It seemed like the side of some kind of river. I wonder if there's anything cool in there! Maybe a message in a bottle or something! she peered over the side of the canal, going a little too far and tipping over the railing. This day just keeps getting better.

---

Once she managed to climb out of the canal, she looked (and felt) completely miserable. It was almost night-time too, and there was no way she'd get into an inn in this state. Day one's going really well so far! she thought angrily. This is probably karma for the stupid posters. Skye was just about ready for a full-blown temper tantrum, but decided she was as well settling down at the roadside. She was in a pretty well-lit area, so at least she wouldn't run into many crazy people. She propped her head against her music case, and decided to try and sleep.

Not long after, she was woken up by someone poking her face. "Huh? Who're-" before she could finish questioning, she found herself being stuffed into a carriage by the strange, face-poking girl'sguards. She considered complaining or stabbing one of them, but before she could, the girl smiled wide at her, and explained what was going on. "I just can't stand seeing people stranded outside like that!" she said. "It just melts my heart! I'm sorry for not asking, but I promise my family will be happy to look after you!"

Deciding a warm bed sounded good, Skye sat back and enjoyed the ride.

Wraith

Seemed as though her power guesses were right on the money. She hoped the guy didn't spend too long climbing up the walls though - last time she'd tried floating in the air for too long, all she'd done was find out that she got motion sickness, which was, to say the least, completely disgusting. Wraith nodded as Ditch finished her explanation, and decided to head out through the wall. Normally she'd just use the door instead, but she didn't really want anyone following her until she knew more about the way they worked. No reason to have anyone ruining her fun on the way home.

---

"Hey, wait, I've got another one!" Wraith laughed cheerfully. "What's the difference between you and a puppy? Nothing! You're both little-" she was interrupted by a baseball bat swinging past her nose. "Hey! That's not nice! You almost made me start paying attention!" the man appeared to be getting more and more frustrated with every swing, each one getting more frantic and less likely to hit her. Poor guy was almost in tears. "Aww, poor baby. Does someone need a cuddle? Why not ask your friends? Oh, wait." The friends in question were already dead. She could have killed this guy already, but his reactions were just too funny. Shouldn't have broken the law, buddy. Still, this was getting boring, and she needed to be home soon. Her dad wasn't exactly strict, but 5am was probably pushing it a little too far.

She smiled, and reduced the density of her hand, plunging it through his ribcage, where she returned it, and the bladed glove on it, to normal density as she gripped his heart. The man looked too freaked out to even scream as she squeezed his life away. Goodnight, lawbreaker. she thought, as she withdrew her hand, leaving a relatively unmarked body in the alley behind her. Say hi to your buddies for me.

She took off her gloves, hiding them in her pockets, and hurried out to get a cab home. Hopefully her dad wouldn't be too angry at her.

---

"You. Are. Grounded. End of story, young lady." So much for that idea. There were plenty of responses that she could make to this, but most of them wouldn't really help the situation. 'I just killed five people, and you think you can ground me?' seemed like it would lead to more questions, and the other excuses didn't seem to work with the whole rule-abiding, friendly persona she had going on. Ah well. Whiny, rebellious teenager act it was.

"You can't ground me just for coming in late, Dad! I'm nineteen, not six for crying out loud!" this probably wouldn't help her out of being grounded, but might at least be helpful in terms of not having to explain where she was. "It's like you don't even want me to have a life!" with that, she let out an irritated noise, and ran off to her room, slamming the door shut as hard as she
could without her powers. She let out an angry scream for good measure, and lay back on her bed, feeling kind of impressed with her performance. If this whole vigilante thing didn't work out, maybe she would go to some auditions in future - Kara Banks, former vigilante and Hollywood superstar! Had a nice ring to it.

She stared up at the ceiling. The whole 'being grounded' thing didn't bother her; what was her dad gonna do, lock her in her room? It was more that she didn't want the group she'd met with to find out about it. She imagined that several of them would probably find the whole thing hilarious. A mass-killing, justice-fuelled vigilante grounded for breaking curfew. Ha, ha, ha.

There was a knock on the door, and her dad walked in again. She barely had time to fix her face into the right expression. He looked at her.

"Listen, you know I'm just worried about your safety, right? With all of those super-powered freaks roaming about, you can't be sure that it's safe, Kara." he said, looking apologetic, and apparently not noticing the way she flinched slightly upon hearing the word 'freaks'. "I'm just scared to lose you, okay? It's just a week, so..." she didn't respond. "Just don't do anything I wouldn't do, okay?" she nodded, and watched him leave the room awkwardly before smiling to herself. You have no idea.

Ok, cool. Rolled it - I'm first post, you're second :)

I'll start working on my IC post then!

Akame ga Kill! - An Alternate History (Lasrever & Otaku95)

Okay! My first post will probably be just Skye, then. I'll add Tatsumi whenever he runs into her or Rex and go from there!

Akame ga Kill! - An Alternate History (Lasrever & Otaku95)

Yeah, either that or start with them reaching the city in the first place, I think. Although, the first bit would probably be our own characters, since we both know how Tatsumi's first day goes :P

Depends how fast we want to get into it.

Akame ga Kill! - An Alternate History (Lasrever & Otaku95)

@Otaku95 Posted mine in there too :)

Akame ga Kill! - An Alternate History (Lasrever & Otaku95)

Name: Skye
Age: 20
Appearance: Skye is around 5'7, with a lithe, fairly muscular build and slightly tanned skin. Her hair is a bright turquoise and kept in a braid down her back, and her eyes are golden-brown. She wears a blue cropped shirt and dark green jacket over short black trousers, along with brown boots. On her back, she has a case where she keeps her Imperial arms, disguised as a music case. She also enjoys jewellery, and wears a silver pendant around her neck.

Teigu/Imperial Arm: Dancing Spears, Watcher's Thorns. Three double-headed spears, which can be manoeuvred at will by the wielder in mid air in a limited area around them. Skye normally wields one in her hands, keeping the other two in the air around her. The spears have a trump card, but she has never used it due to the cost involved.

Personality: Skye is slightly childish, and doesn't seem to take things seriously, even in the middle of battle. When she is fighting, her attitude often irritates her opponents, as well as her teammates. She can be slightly full of herself at times, and enjoys teasing others about their failures, not really realising that she can hurt others with her mocking. When she does do something wrong, though, she can be very self-critical and blame herself for her failures even when they couldn't be prevented. Despite her nature, she will always do her best to complete the job, and does understand the seriousness of Night Raid's objectives deep down.

Controlling: Tatsumi, Lubbock, Leone, Chelsea and Mine

Never Normal - a Superhero Vigilante RP

Wraith

Wraith listened to Ditch's rundown of their powers with interest. Seemed like they were pretty powerful, at least, and she knew everyone's codenames at least. Satisfied, she nodded to herself, and was happy to watch the little presentation that had been put together for them. She noted the bills that fluttered out with the laptop, and was tempted to pick up a couple. After considering it for a little longer, she decided against it, a little ashamed for even thinking of the idea. She wasn't some common thief. Common thieves ended up like the man she'd met this evening once justice caught up to them.

She would have liked a little more detail on the other vigilantes, even if she understood why Ditch wouldn't give it. It was just that a few of them creeped her out, just a little. Like the darkness-user, 'Reaper' if she remembered right. It felt as though she was looking straight through her. That wasn't a feeling that Wraith enjoyed. She glanced at her briefly, but decided to think about something else instead of dwelling on her thoughts. Whether she's got me figured out or not, there are more important things to deal with.

She listened to Ditch's little presentation intently. So, seemed like Umbra was trying to 'recruit' another couple of supers. Ditch also seemed to have a very dim view of killing, which lead Wraith to wonder exactly how much she did know about the way she operated. In her books, Wraith was probably worse than both of these crooks put together, even if she did go for 'victims' that deserved it as far as she cared. Probably just cross that bridge when she came to it, something which Wraith decided she would avoid doing for as long as possible. She thought about the two supers in the footage.

Wall Walker and Scarlet Shifter, huh. She had to admit, the idea of taking on either of them excited her. Looking at the footage, as well as from what Ditch said, they seemed to be fairly powerful supers. Not powerful enough to escape Umbra's little servants. Both of them intrigued her, and she found herself wanting the opportunity to fight Scarlet. Still, while she'd love to try and beat the snot out of the shifter, looking at the abilities the pair had displayed, and even their names, it seemed obvious which one Wraith should go after.

"I know there's a lot of us going after him already, but I think it makes sense for me to go after Wall Walker." she said, with a small smile that didn't match the slightly predatory look in her eyes. "I can walk through walls with my ability too, you know? Anywhere he goes, I'll probably be able to follow."
