Haha. Alright, thank you.
Since I can do nothing in a fight, let me stand by and do just that: nothing. ^_^

Bio
Scorpion's Flower here, Hello all!
My native language if French, but I think I defend myself pretty well in English. I am currently studying German, too.
I currently study in general History, and I have a deep passion for it. If I was forced to pick a favorite time period, it would be Antiquity in general. If I had to pick a favorite civilization, it would be the Romans. In no way, though, does this mean I am not interested in anything else from the 1st, or before, to the 20th century !
I love Fantasy-Roleplays, a lot. It is my forte, and what I most often play part in. I also love Sci-Fi, but have had a really hard time taking part in ones that lived, or truly caught my utmost interest. I love romance in my roleplays. I would not put it under obligatory, but if you Roleplay with me, you probably will end up witnessing some form of romance. Slice of life, anime, realistic, present times and many others are also things I could easily do. In fact, I think I can easily be interested in all subjects.
Hope to see you around !

Juniper clutched harder at her stomach. Not only was her phantom pain acting up, but she was hungry as all hells. Just as a growl escaped from her small body did some bread and cooked meat fell down from the skies onto her lap. For a moment she remained in silent, staring at the food in disbelief. For half a second, she really did think it fell from the sky. A quick look up revealed that it was not divine providence that assured her next meal, but a fully armoured man staring down at her very menacingly. At least he seemed menacing, but it might have been due to his helmet and generally tough looking apparel.
The multiple weapons on his person, among which a very vile looking hook, did not help his appearance.
Him speaking up destroyed the remaining hopes that a kind hearted man hid under such garments. His voice was deep, and his ordering tone did not exude any friendly warmth. A hunter, to be sure. Perhaps a killer, too? Juniper had heard nasty rumours from the folks about what kind of people had joined the King's newly appointed Hunters.
As he stopped, his group did not really wait for him. Nor did he wait for her answer: after dropping the food, he ordered her to follow and basically just took off with his group. Left on the spot, Juniper quickly took the food and jumped up, looked around as if there would be some sort of answer to her predicament in her immediate surroundings, and dashed off to keep up with the armoured figure.
Now, she did not do so to follow orders, but she was put on the spot and did not have time to think her decision. The man had given her food - she owed him. In the late weeks, she managed to stay clear of being in anyone's debts, as she hated not being to repay them. How the hell was she supposed to repay someone who was among the richer group of folks in the city?
Strangely enough, no one seemed to matter that she tagged alone even once outside city gates. She remained in the man's shadow, silent as a lamb. It happened to her often enough - that none even acknowledged her presence. They either did not even see her, or did not care the slightest.
It wasn't until they reach a wooded area that she truly began wondering why she actually followed them, and how the hell she got from her usual wandering of the city to prowling in the woods with a group of hunters.
Moments later, they were before a cavern entrance. Everything happened ridiculously fast:
Armoured man kicked down the door. Same man threw a torch in and charged inside like a mad man. Some shadowy hooded man also charged in, albeit with less murderous intent, or not as clear. Quickly enough, she was alone outside. Afeared, she took refuge by the cavern's entrance until the noise of fighting got deeper and deeper into the cavern.
It was only then that she dared to step - very slowly - toward the entrance. As soon as she turned the corner she came face to face with a kid about her age. A very pale boy faced her, looking just as surprised as her to see a child there. It took her a moment to realize she blocked his way. Surely he had managed to hide and sneak his way past the moving onslaught.
he took a step toward her, glaring his fangs at her, but stopped dead in his track, confusion in his eyes. He looked at her from top to bottom. It was as if he smelled something.
Juniper simply stepped aside, motioning him to leave. "Go...quick!" she whispered.
After one last glance at her, he was gone.
A quick glance at the massacre inside quickly brought back bad memories and made her decide to remain outside and wait for the hunters to reappear. After which she will follow them back to the city and do her very best to never get in such a situation ever again.
She clutched at her stomach stronger than before. The phantom pain was back in full.

Quick question: Do you guys... have horses?
It's not written everywhere, but I kind of imagined they'd leave on horseback. Maybe not, though. I need to know before I can post. x)

Well, turn out I just posted. I also took for granted that she was near when you left town, with whoever decided to accompany you.
If you want to interact, it's indeed a good time. ;)
It has been years since I did a group RP, so excuse me if I am rusty and maybe a bit clumsy with my posts and all. I normally try to stay vague and open, but if I make too much assumptions or take too much liberty (not with others characters, but events, environments and the such) and it doesn't add up, just tell me and I'll edit.

Rothenburg's Streets
Falling down from the sidewalk's border she had been busy balancing on, Juniper held her stomach with both hands. The strange feeling of uneasiness was still very present in her, and it showed no sign of receding. It was far form the only thing upsetting her stomach, though. Hunger, she was used to.
She looked up at the plaza she had just arrived in. In the middle of the day, it was so full of life. People of different social classes were just walking around, minding their own business. The richer were shopping for quality fabric, others for food. It was as if everything was normal, probably as it used to be before.
By this time, everyone knew of the city's 'scourge'. Early in the evening, streets were emptied almost completely. Only a few souls walked the streets at night, and those were mostly her own people - those with nowhere to call home but the street - guards, a few souls braver than most and drunkards. Also, Hunters. As far as Juniper understood, they had been appointed by the King to see to the problem they had. No one knew exactly what was going on, but the small people were not blind. Rumours circulated. Vile things stalked the nights, killing loved ones, abducting children and all manner of evil deeds. Such were the rumours, anyway.
As the day went by, she kept wandering the streets of the city seeking anyone willing to let her give them a hand in exchange for food, clothing or anything of the sort. Since heavy manual labours were too much for her, she usually received most of her stuff from people pitying her and gifting the child with what few they could dispossess themselves. It did not sit well with Juniper, but it was better than stealing - which she refused to do.
At some point in the late afternoon, as she was sitting down at the entrance of an alley close to the street, she witnessed a group of uncommon looking persons walking towards one of the gate of the city. By the look of the populace who witnessed the same thing, she guessed as to who it might have been - especially since they left as the sun was setting. Hunters, most likely.
Her eyes fell upon their attire and weapons, and the feeling within her suddenly doubled. It felt as a needle in her body, but it couldn't be described as painful. A sort of Phantom Feeling, something she could not describe. The macabre scenery of a few days ago resurfaced in her mind, and she brought her knees up upon her chest in an subconscious effort to hide from it.
Just what had happened that night?

@Lucius Cypher I am going to write a very casual first post to be honest. ^_^' My character live on the street right now, so it's very, very easy to just 'stumble' upon her one way or another.
Hello !
Glad to join up.
I'll try to post as frequently as possible - and since I have ample free time lately, that shouldn't be too much of a hassle. ^_^'

Personality
Juniper had always been a kind soul. She finds pleasure in the small things: beauty of nature, kindness of people and generosity. Of course, those things were not always present, but she fed on the moments that they were and ignored the rest.
She dislike being helped and will do anything possible to repay a debt if she owe anything to anyone. Of course, her status as a beggar child means that she is limited... so she vowed to at least be someday able to repay everyone she owes anything to.
She dislike violence and never stand out. Her very gentle soul makes her kind of submissive, and very likely to obey orders given to them especially if they are said as 'suggestions'. Her trust of people makes her gullible and naive.
History
Juniper was born of an unknown mother and father. She was found close by a wooded area near Shrewsbury. In fact, she was found in a bush of juniper berries, hence her name. Her adoptive parents brought her back home and raised her best they could. They were a small family of farmers, all close to one another and all working very hard to maintain the small patch of land they had for themselves.
The family have had about seven children, three of them daughters. As such, they knew that Juniper had always been a weak child, but it was only after her fourteenth birthday that they realized just how much. Fourteen years old was about the age where children really began giving a serious hand around the farm. In Juniper's case however, there was an incident where she fell unconscious after a few hours helping her sisters cleaning the stable and fell seriously ill the next morning.
Her parents knew she was no good. She could not help around the farm, and no husband would ever take her as wife if she could not help what so ever, let alone give birth. So, a few months later, she was abandoned a second time at the outskirt of Rothenburg. Her adoptive parents knew she'd die out in the wild. They refused to simply send her to die, so they decided to bring her to the city on their next trip to sell their products and simply abandon her there. They thought she'd at least have a chance to survive there, but little did they know how dangerous the city was to become.
However, her luck had not yet run dry. A few days passed before she was taken in by a group of street beggars who saw her in an alley, slowly dying to her illness. They fed her what little they could share despite their common misery. Not strong enough to pitch in, Juniper did the best she could to express her gratitude whenever she could. The group quickly noticed her condition and refused to let her work too hard.
Driven by guilt of doing nothing and the will to change, Juniper sneaked out of their shelter one night in order to beg for either money or food for the next morning and surprise them. Of that night she remembers only two things: A loud thumb behind her and acute pain that befell her like a wave across her whole body.
She woke up. Wounds on her body. Rather, scars. What seemed like lacerations and large bite marks on her small frame. Worse than that however, she was covered in blood, but not her own. She stood alone and naked among a multitude of bloodied corpses. Eviscerated and scattered across the... shelter?
A few weeks passed since then. Juniper now keeps to herself. Unaware of her new situation, she still felt guilt to bed the only one alive. Worse yet, she felt some uncomfortable 'warmth' inside. Akin to excitation, but not quite. Deranging enough to make her fearful of it.
