Current Taking a hiatus - not sure when I'll be back.

It's incredible how if you give someone just the tiniest bit of power over others they'll turn into the most self-righteous, selfish, impatient fuckers you will ever meet.

How are some writers on this site still incapable of knowing how a comma works?! It's like the second easy piece of punctuation you learn about as a kid!!!

It'll always be confusing to me when some people regard two or three sentences in an IC post as putting in effort with the writing, yet they consider themselves at a casual/advanced level.

Ironic how you're accusing us of harassment (when all we're doing is making valid criticism), when you harass your players and partners.
@Scott Silverado

Have you ever considered the possibility that perhaps the problem is not the people, but yourself? I've seen so many people try to give you advice but you never follow it. Your ideas are usually from extremely niche fandoms that, after several attempts, one can see that there aren't many people on the guild interested in them. Next, your characters are nearly always the main character - you've already claimed the Main Alpha Wolf in this roleplay, for example, rather than having it as an NPC. You've got no clear direction or plots, so it's no wonder people decide to drop out because there's not much to write about. You put your roleplays in the advanced and casual section when it really should be in Free, where you may actually get some eager players. Finally, your attitude just stinks. For one, calling out somebody in a separate thread to just try and shame them, or something? Seriously? Believe it or not, people are going to start dropping out of your RPs and avoiding you when you start treating them badly - bumping a thread with "sigh" or "frustrated growl" isn't mature in the slightest, and really paints you in a bad light. I think it's about time you started looking at yourself and your own actions instead of just blaming stuff on your partners, because this behaviour is not going to get you any friends.
Word of advice: Generally speaking, roleplays don't live very long/make it past the application stage when the GM doesn't give a clear direction for the plot - not outside of the Free section, anyway. The players can't do much with the only bits of information being "werewolf packs" and "human prisoners".
@Scott Silverado

Did we forget about this thread? Or is bumping your other ones more important?

Charlie's rolls have been left out again in the update - what was the outcome of his second attack on Othello?
Nina van Essenhout



Location: The Facility





"Unbelieveable. I knew I couldn't count on him." Nina thought to herself grimly, not being able to get a word in edgeways as the speedster rattled through his speech and sped off to aid Guinevere... as if his own group didn't need aid to start with. With Damon down and Ayita confused, Nina was left with a predicament. Did she leave the two compromised youngsters alone to try and help everyone else and finish the mission, or stay with them for possibly no reason? It was clear by Wolf-Ayita's growling that she wasn't too fond of Nina, even though the latter had attempted to keep her distance. Still, Damon's presence was a calming one for her as ever, and she was soon happily lapping away at his wound. Probably wasn't doing Damon much good (Unless she had magical saliva), but she seemed far more steady on her feet... or paws. Looking now to Damon himself, Nina considered her options.

"I'm no expert on first-aid - in fact, from the stories I've heard about you, you're practically a field medic yourself - but I'm not sure we'll be able to take you anywhere with that leg." She said quietly, crouching so she was at eye level with him, but still keeping some distance between herself and Ayita. She didn't want to appear as threatening. "I can use my jacket as a tourniquet to stop some of that bleeding, and try and get you and Ayita back to the van. Or... if you prefer, I can go further into the facility alone to help the others. Something must have happened to spook Pietro like that, so I'm concerned about the other teams. Do you think you'd be able to manage, with just yourself and Ayita?" It was up to Damon, in her opinion. She wouldn't feel right leaving them behind if he felt he needed help, regardless of the others in the facility. Thankfully the wound didn't look too life-threatening, but she has no idea if the bullet had hit his femoral and was causing massive blood loss. Ayita's licking wouldn't help the wound close either, but Nina wasn't particularly enthusiastic about pushing the wolf's muzzle away from the bullet hole. She seemed to be enjoying herself.





Charlie Farrier



Location: The Facility





The arrival of another foe didn't shake Charlie as much as he thought; although this newcomer looked just as deranged as Sabretooth (but in another way, strangely), he didn't feel any extra fear. Just grief, and through that, fury. As Sabretooth hit the deck, courtesy of impeccable aim from Cassandra, he briefly considered just lighting him up. But even the murder of his friend wasn't enough for him to do that... that would also be murder, right? Just setting an unconscious - and for the moment, harmless - individual on fire. It could kill him, and Charlie wasn't quite ready to do that to a snoozing Sabretooth.

His annoying friend though? Sure.

Trying to block out the man's taunts, Charlie raised his arms again, palms directed towards Othello. This freaky dude was going down.
Would be interested in knowing more about the plot - is this just SoL with werewolves capturing pesky humans, or is there something else we'll be doing?
@LadyRunic
Hate to do this to you because of the issues going on in the guild, but Nina isn't approaching Ayita. Thought it would be a bad idea to do that in my post.


Agent Alec Fletcher




Location: Ashland, Wisconsin - FBI Mobile Office
Interacting With: Agent Vicki Norman




Looking at his boss' rather frazzled exterior, Alec may have offered her a cigarette to calm down if he were in a more mischievous mood... and if she was in a less murderous looking one. What with the deathly glint in her eyes that seemed to flare up at each individual ring of her phone, and the cowed look of Agent Summers as he scurried away, Alec decided now wasn't the time to be a smart-ass. Even if was tempting to make a sarcastic comment about how OMEN simply could have phoned for the debrief, hearing the words "Altsoba" and "Event" together wiped away any thoughts of humour. Now, he was no expert on the supernatural, and before being filled in by superior officers, had assumed Altsoba was whatever the news was telling it to be shortly after it occurred. Knowing the full-scale magnitude of it, and having it be compared to something now that may have killed one of their Agents, was a fairly sobering thought. Especially because he was walking right into it as Agent-Fodder number 2.

"Yes Ma'am." He muttered in response as Norman turned on her heel and stormed away, frazzled curls bouncing as she did. Placing a cigarette inbetween his lips as he turned towards the exit, Alec tossed his cars keys in the air before catching them. "One of you lucky boys is goin' to have to drive my car up to DC for me. Can't take it on a plane, and I have a feelin' I'm gonna be stuck there for a while." He announced to those in the room before placing his keys down on a desk. He could make it to the airport some other way.

Heading towards the entrance, Alec flicked his lighter and lit his cigarette, taking a deep inhale of it before glancing behind him.

"And whoever does do the deed will get a personal recommendation from me to be removed out of this ass-end of an office and into a cosier and far more lucrative one - if my car arrives in one piece, that is." Although offering a grin to those looking, he wasn't exactly joking about his promise. Tapping some ash onto the floor outside, Alec stepped back outside into the drizzle, ready to head to the airport. Hopefully D.C had some better weather.
