Alexandra had almost fallen over when the dark haired girl had appeared beside her, cringing when she sniffed at her with a look of distaste and disgust at what she smelled. “No, actually I’m not, but that’s the least of our worries and I’m Alexandra Valentino if you really want to know.” She says quickly, a smile on her face before a cold shiver runs along her body. This reply however was quickly dismissed when the boy she had spotted before cursed, slamming a flaming fist into the cement with obvious rage. So he wasn’t all he seemed either, he was definitely human though and so was the girl who was now crouched behind her like a frightened animal. Her eyes turned from the beast who had spoken with a small nod in agreement.
“They really shouldn’t be shocked; you are a Barghest after all. It is quite cold though.” She chuckles, blowing a jet of warm steam from her lips like one would imagine coming from a dragon. Suddenly her form stretched, her pale skin turning into ebony scales as her bones creaked into their new place. Her eyes became large and round with slits for pupils and her teeth became sharp and pointed. By the time she stopped shifting the only recognizable thing was the aqua eyes staring out at the group, in her place now stood a small dragon who was giving off a fair bit of body heat but not enough to overheat the creature on the wall opposite her. “Well that’s better.” She sighed out with a cheery smile of teeth.

Would it be better then to have people post when at least two others have gone before them? To ensure that won't happen.

Yes actually, it would be better if people did that. Though if someone hasn't posted in a while I'll try to send them messages to keep them from falling behind as well.
--Edited---
However I am going to get some sleep, I'll be on in the morning but it's gotten late so goodnight to you all for now.

Not really, as long as no one gets left majorly left behind it's fine. I'm just giving the other two a chance to post before Alexandra reacts to everything.

The first post is up. Heads up though, you don't have to type that much for a first post a paragraph or two is good enough. I was merely setting the scene and kind of got carried away. Have fun guys!!

Alexandra was freezing and stiff, her awareness floating just between waking and the black abyss of unconsciousness. All she wanted to do was drift back to sleep but there was this nagging feeling, something primal and urgent telling her she needed to get up so that’s what she did. She struggled to open her eyes, the heavy lids fighting to slide closed as she attempted to sit up in bed. No wait, this wasn’t her bed, the ground beneath her numb form was ice cold like cement. Suddenly worried she forced her aqua eyes open and what she saw made alarms go off in her head.

The shape-shifter was in what appeared to be a basement, the walls a pale grey that was just a few shades lighter than the cement she had awoken on. There was practically nothing in the room; save for what she recognized as bodies that littered the icy floor. Other than that the room was strangely empty; no boxes, shelves, tools, tarps, absolutely nothing besides the beings littering the floor and a teddy bear.

How had she gotten down here? The vague memory of sitting in her living room flashed in her mind only to remember a cloth being forced into her face. She remembers fighting weakly to get the chemical scented rag off her face but her attacker easily fended her attempts of escape off as she melted into silent sleep. Then she woke up in this freezing dungeon with stiff limbs as if she had been sleeping for several days. Maybe she had been seeing as her pale skin almost had a blue tinge to it like the beginning of hypothermia.

Trying to pull herself back together Alexandra clambered to her feet, shifting from foot to foot to shake life back into her system before turning her attention to the bodies surrounding her in the slightly small room.

Closest to her was a teddy bear lying on its stomach, it seemed a little odd for it to be found down here seeing as it was the only object in the room but something about it gave her the idea it wasn’t all it appeared. The next being she took note in was the young woman not far from the bear, she had short black hair and from what Alex could tell from here she seemed to still be breathing. Several feet to her left there was a young boy with shaggy blonde hair, oddly enough he seemed to be the only one who wasn’t freezing though she couldn’t tell if the bear sized creature closest to the stairs was cold seeing as it was covered in fur. The last person she noticed was a girl with long pink hair, that wasn’t what caught her eye though. It was the fact she had little bumblebee wings on her back that shocked her. She too was breathing faintly though so at least no one was a corpse.

“Maybe I should wake them up; someone might know where we are… “Alexandra said softly, her bright eyes shifting to the door as if it would burst open any minute. That didn’t happen but she did notice what seemed to be a note taped to the door. It would have to wait though.

Going to give it a little bit longer. We've got six people so far in total, which would be good enough, but I'm going to hold out for maybe an hour before I put up the initial post.

Yeah, she's supposed to be rare. Sorry I didn't make that clear!

I was just double checking, she'll be added to the list. For now just keep an eye on the IC page, the link is in my signature (the last one). We should start sometime soon, I'm just giving those last two spots time to be filled.

Name: Bea (short for Beatrice)Age: 22Gender: FemaleSpecies: Bumble bee fairyAppearance:Bea has two forms. Her first is her more human form that stands at 5' 5" and lacks poisonous stingers. Her wings are still present and are adorably small, though powerful.Her second form is her full fairy form that stands at a measly 3.5 inches. The stingers extend from her elbows and they are her major form of defense when in a squeeze.Personality: Bea is a very adventurous and curious fairy, as most tend to be. She is a mainly happy-go-lucky girl and that can sometimes get on the nerves of those around her. When faced with a challenge, Bea will persevere until she eventually succeeds or can no longer go on. She is a stubborn fairy, but has a strong sense of empathy for those she cares about.Fears:- Fire - it burns!- Water - if she gets her wings wet, she can't fly- Birds - they have a tendency try eating her- Tight spaces - a little ironic, but she has claustrophobiaAbility: She can survive completely off of flowers in her tiny form, plus she can deliver a very painful sting from her elbow stingers that can, in some cases, paralyze small animals and large insects.Short History: WIPOther: Unlike honey bees, bumble bee stingers do not have barbs. This means that Bea will not die after stinging a foe.

I'm guessing that bumblebee fairies are rare or that her abilities are not average for her species. If this is the case then she's accepted.
