Sebastian frowned and hugged her close, "It's not your fault... He was an adult and he took advantage of you love for him and by the time you could have realized the truth it was too late." He kissed her forehead, "The fact is, you managed something most real 'blood whores' never do... You woke up. You realized you had a problem and you went for help... It isn't your fault he came here and it isn't your fault that you caved, it was so soon after Anya's bite, it was still fresh in your mind. Often, when we're faced with someone who had so much power over us we still believe we're powerless."

He sighed, "You're still as beautiful to me as the day I met you... I'm going to help you through this, you're going to get better, and one day you'll be able to look your father in the face and know he doesn't have power over you anymore... and I'll be there feeling proud of my Guardian." He winked at her playfully and hugged her against him again, "It's going to take a long time, but I know you'll get there."

Anna smiled, relaxing a little... "It's not that I'm worried about doing anything... I mean..." She rubbed the back of her neck and stepped into the room, "I wouldn't mind..." She huffed, "And that made me sound skanky... I just mean... that if it was you... I wouldn't mind." She shook her head, "Nevermind... the point is, I'm not scared of being alone with you... I'm just worried I'll say or do the wrong thing and mess all of this up."

She took a seat on his bed and smiled at him as she changed the subject, hoping he'd just forget what she'd said... she felt stupid enough. She wasn't good at ACTUALLY flirting or being girly, she didn't know how to do any of that... She wasn't LIKE that. She sighed, "Tests are coming up soon... We have to make sure we score well or we won't make it in the elites..."

Bye then. ^_^

Where Angels Fear to Tread (Community Revived Edition)

I agree, we can just play out this bit and be more mindful of numbers in the future... Damage done as Stefan said, waaaay too much work to go back and rewrite. Spark saved our asses, that's good enough. :)

Where Angels Fear to Tread (Community Revived Edition)

That's why we were supposed to have strengths and downfalls, super strength and super slow... or fast and agile but not much of a fighter... Most everyone, like Stefan said, has been keeping their kill counts moderately believable in consideration to their strengths... but in our condition and considering our weaknesses we listed things have to wear on us at some point. Like Hamster said, getting caught is the only understandable course of action when outnumbered by what back in those days would be considered a small army. Sparks soldiers could stand a fighting chance but a bunch of half starved and badly wounded prisoners with bare minimum armor and weaponry... not so much... Thus the reason Aevah is stuck under a dead soldier and too weak to free herself. With Shorus set upon by so many guards... it's highly unlikely he'll make it back to the group alive unless the enemy soldiers think he is dead and are too distracted by Spark's attack to finish him off. Even still... the damage done would have to be pretty severe for them to think him dead.

Bitten

Name: Rhyle Renée West
Gender: Female
Age: Twenty-four
Group: Main
Personality: Playful, sarcastic, willfully stubborn, protective, a bit of a tomboy.
Abilities: Speed, agility, and sneaking about are her strong suits.
Appearance:

Human

Wolf:

Wolf

Background: Rhyle grew up with a mother who was strung out on drugs and drinking. Her father was a mystery man, a one night stand in a long string of many... she'd had no way of knowing that he was a werewolf or that she had the virus lying dormant inside her. From age nine Rhyle had been taking care of herself and half the time, her mother. At age sixteen she got a job that was supposed to pay her way out of the hell that was her life, but her mother ruined that plan by failing to pay her bills in order to afford more drugs or liquor. The men her mother brought around often didn't know how to keep their hands to themselves but by then Rhyle had made sure she knew how to protect herself, her end of town wasn't safe for a woman who didn't know how to fight. Rhyle paid the bills and gave up on college... she was forced to stay with her mother until age nineteen. One night, on her way home from work, she'd been attacked by a lone mutt in an ally. Since human women didn't survive the change, he'd left her for dead. It was pure luck that one of the mutt pack that later took her in had been passing by. At first he didn't think there would be anything he could do other than put her out of her misery but she surprised him by getting further through the change than any other woman he'd ever seen bitten. He took her to the mutt pack and with their help she survived... barely. She has been with them ever since, abandoning her old life and embracing her new one. Being a tom-boy Rhyle fits in with the guys pretty well, better than she ever has with other girls, and now that the secret to turning a woman is known... there have been a few other ladies found and turned.

@Revans - Sorry...This is something I'm set on for fairness' sake. The posting order will only be put into place if I see that people are being left way behind the rest of the rp. People quit when two people get way ahead and leave everyone else behind because they feel they can't contribute to the rp when they can't post as often as everyone else.... Which is why I stated at least a post a day.

@PureThoughts - I'm glad you're excited! I've been wanting to try this rp for a while.

@Mayadere - Posting order shouldn't be a big thing since I'm not expecting to get a huge group or anything... I just wanted it known that it MIGHT be put into place if post speed becomes an issue for the group. :)

^_^ Welcome guys, I'll put up a character sheet in this post momentarily... I'm going to give the Interest Check another day or two to see if we get some more people but feel free to post your characters...

Character Sheet

Name:
Gender:
Age: Werewolves age more slowly than humans after age 18... If you look 30 then you're probably more like 50 or 60 years old.

Personality:
Abilities: Let me know what you're good at... tracking, hunting, sneaking, agility, speed, strength... What is your strong suit? If you want a more... magical ability run it by me first via PM.
Appearance: You can use a picture or describe yourself... that's fine.
Wolf: Again, you can describe your wolf or you can post a picture.

Steel fist said
Guys, no bad intentions. You planned to leave the citadel, I wanted Shorus to stay behind and cover your escape. He has no intention to fight off all the guards, just to draw their fire till you escape, that's all. After that he will collapse a wall or something and use the havoc to escape himself. I don't see a reason for spark to not introduce her character, a battle is a good time like every other time. And you don't even have to fight, just use the havoc Shorus created to escape.And yes, I needed the Minotaur to be busy for a while, I actually told you that.. (Hamster, you ignored that, so I tried to make him busy myself).

If there is an entire garrison, or 300 soldiers, then it's more than likely that some would get past Shorus as it's very unlikely that he'd be able to handle corralling them all... On top of which Shorus can still remain busy, having led off the larger part of the horde and then catch up later. This doesn't affect your post and Hamster didn't ignore you saying you were busy... If you notice in one of my previous posts I even mentioned your character having stayed behind... You posted after that saying you'd caught up.

As for Sparkle and Hamster, they'd been planning to have her save Mhundir from the last few Guardsman anyway from before your last post... it's here in the OOC if you read back.

Character Summary

Location: Following the Prince
Health: Confused and exhausted
Inventory: Same
Actions: Killed two of the Prince's attackers, trapped under a dead man, warned the Prince of a possible oncoming threat.

Aevah had been lost to her own thoughts, passing her options through her mind over and over. To be honest, she'd long missed the company of others...ones who weren't constantly playing games and twisting words. The company of other thieves was a double edged sword, there was no honor amongst them and if one could use you to step higher on their own pedestal then they would. Sure, Aevah was one of them and to be fair she'd done her share of manipulating and game playing. However, she'd never stabbed anyone in the back who had shown her true kindness and if she owed a debt she paid it... always. Everyone had saved everyone's life, except her... she'd not really fought yet. She might be impressive with her daggers but it required getting a little too close to armored folks for her comfort. She usually didn't fight battles she wasn't sure to win.

She smiled a little as Rin mentioned blood letting and the Prince grew squeamish, she liked the party's little banter... It reminded her of home before her abilities had manifested and she'd become an outsider. She was about to tease the prince on loosing a little blood when Shorus shouted something about an ambush. Aevah cursed in every language she knew, which wasn't an impressive list. She drew her daggers as the sunlight spilled into the hall and blinded her momentarily. Knowing better than to be in the open while her eyes struggled to adjust she pressed her body against one of the walls to make herself a smaller target. Once her vision returned, along with a massive headache from the rapid change in light, she caught up to the Prince. It registered momentarily that he'd called her a lady... a half-elf thief. Despite their sticky situation she could still feel amused, but her amusement slipped away as she saw what lay before them.

"There are too many!

Aevah raced after the Prince, she did not have confidence that in his condition he'd hold out much longer. She watched him kill one attacker only to be set upon by two more as he fell back. She cursed again and darted forward just as one lifted his blade, preparing to behead the Prince. It was nothing to slip her blade just under his raised arm, between the chinks in his armor and into his ribs when he'd left his body so open and hadn't even seen her coming to begin with. She ducked the other's sword, swing as his companion fell and rammed a shoulder into his plated chest... It hurt but it did what it was meant to do, he stumbled just as she hooked her food behind his ankle and sent him toppling. He tried to roll but the armor he wore was cumbersome and he was too slow, she leapt on him and yanked his head back before slamming it as hard as she could into a rock... knocking him out. She rolled, struggling to pull him half atop her body to guard from the arrows now raining down but unfortunately her hand had brushed his skin... Had she just taken an arrow through her throat or had he? At the moment it didn't matter because whether it was him dying or her, she could feel everything.... The pain was unimaginable and she was drowning in her own blood.

Somewhere, distantly, she heard the sound of hooves and it jolted her out of her trance. She struggled to shove the body off her, an arrow sticking out of his throat... he was still gurgling. She shuddered and tried harder but she was so tired now... Since she couldn't get anywhere s she called to the Prince instead to warn him of the likelihood of more Guardsmen.

"Mhundir! Horses are coming... hide!"
