Welch (underworld debt collectors)

Mr. Slake
Team A

A hazy figure stepped through the threshold to Virgo's office, little more than a black smudge on the room's metaphorical canvas. It strode forward, set a briefcase down on a tasteless white marble end-table, and set about removing it's coat. Emerging from the rain slicker cocoon came the brilliant rainbow wings of Mr. Slake, glittering dust trailing back towards the door.

"You really ought to put up some signs, you know.", Slake started as he folded his coat, not bothering to look up, "Practically impossible to find an office in this place; I was wandering the upper floor for over an hour before I realized your secretary was one of those savages who calls the ground floor a "first floor". Ghastly, I tell you. If I hadn't followed your dog I don't think I'd ever have found you.", He draped his coat over his lower right arm, picking up the briefcase in his left.

He walked towards the desk/podium/interior-decorating-nightmare, eyeing Narious and Choppers and maintaining his distance with obvious disgust- as obviously as one could show disgust without facial expressions, at least.

"Virgo, I take it. I must admit, I expected you to be a bit more... feminine?"

Mr. Slake fished a small, printed rectangle from his jacket pocket. Tastefully thick; eggshell, with Romalian type. No watermark just yet; he was saving that for his promotion.

"Folus U. Slake, AMT Banking And Legal. My card."

@Rebirth
So are we gonna split up into smaller teams considering that the current roster has a bunch of overlap down to having two dogs that both have elemental powers?

Welch (underworld debt collectors)

Thirty Silver sounds like some kinda jewish gangsta rapper.

Okay, I'll send it to you over PM.

Welch (underworld debt collectors)

Mr. Slake

Name: Folus U. Slake

Appearance

Class: Fixer

Powers:
Scales - The microscopic scales that make up Mr. Slake's wings are a powerful psychotropic. When inhaled by a living creature, they enter a fugue state of sorts. Within this trance, the effected become extremely docile and open to suggestion, dedicated to fulfilling Mr. Slake's every request.

Chaff - In addition to their effect on living creatures, Mr. Slake's scales also act as a kind of organic chaff which refracts light and scrambles sensory equipment, making both himself and his immediate area impossible to view with telescopic aid or photograph.

Flight - Naturally, Mr. Slake can also use his wings to fly.

Weakness: High-humidity environments wash his scales out of the air, rendering them useless. Likewise, soaking his wings prevents him from using any of his demonic powers until he can dry them out.

Background: Mr. Slake is an accountant working within the debt collection department of Alecto, Megaera & Tisiphone Banking And Legal. Mr. Slake is a staunch professional. Mr. Slake believes that debt collections should be quiet, efficient, and impersonal, with an absolute minimum of disruption to the general populace. Mr. Slake does not believe in making threats, only promises. After work, Mr. Slake enjoys relaxing with a fine vintage and some good blackmail material.

@Strange Rodent
I'm glad you asked, friend!

Don't Rest Your Head is a system (and setting) similarly focused around the concept of dream-logic. It has a horror-like atmosphere which is supported by the mechanics creating a constant downward spiral that continues until a character either dies, falls unconscious (which, in the setting, is as good as dead), or is consumed by their own abilities, the latter of which which transforms them into a nightmare-creature that starts the cycle anew.

It's fundamentally a success-dicepool system with static TN, but the most unique aspect of the system is a pool of color-coded dice which correspond to different aspects of your character's skillset that can be mixed-and-matched for rolls, but have different outcomes depending on the relative values of each die-type.

Would you like to read it?

Bleak: The Abyss

Okay, I've PMed it to you.

@Rebirth
So is this going to be a continuous storyline, or an episodic deal about collecting on the debt-of-the-week?
