Umbra: The Abyssal Connection

I'm guessing we'll have a posting schedule for this one too?

Umbra: The Abyssal Connection

@Estylwen Let me know if I need to change anything!
Added both of my guys. I'm terrible to Wren, which is perfect for this :D
Plus internal struggle for which side he wants to be with!

Umbra: The Abyssal Connection

Post Apoc stuff; Mimicraptor, Wren(Wendigo-infused human)

SporkoBug

”Mimi”

Unknown | Mimicraptor-Wild | Unknown Gender(They/Them) | Ghost Corps “Feathered Beast” | 5’6” Height, 7’8” Length | 396 Lbs

Abyssal Connection: Currently None (Planned Possessive Connection)

Mimicky

Ability to Mimic any sound it has heard before, almost to ultimate perfection. Namely used for communicating with humans.

Dark-Vision

Ability to see in low to no light scenarios. Flaws - Bright lights cause Startled, Weakened eyesight in brighter areas.

(Locked) Passive Camouflage

In the Spectral Woods area, and in any natural wooded area; Mimi can become almost invisible to the naked eye, despite the colours of their feathers.

Goal:
Survive. Mimi just wants to live, they want to help any human they come across that doesn’t show any threat to them.

Personality:
Unlike most Wilds, Mimi feeds on the positive rather than the negative. They’re quiet for the most part, but they can be calm and kind to those who won’t harm them. They’re rather stoic unless a weapon is pointed at them and they become a bit more frantic.
They’re curious towards humans, always wanting to learn more about them; Human technology both stuns them and scares them, they want to learn more but they don’t want to be used.

History:
Mimi doesn’t remember hatching. All they knew, for a very long time, was the Pack-Mind of other Raptor-like beasts. When it was noticed that Mimi didn’t feed on the negative like the rest of the Pack, they were kicked out into the wilds and the Dust on their own.

Which is where Mimi found out about humans. Fascinating little creatures; resilient, aggressive, stubborn. Mimi followed different groups of humans for many years, watching some of them pass and others move on; they made sure to keep the humans they have been following safe, they’ve had to go up against their own ex-pack members in order to keep some humans safe.

Mimi has had run-ins with the Umbra Corp, narrowly escaping a few times without them capturing them or using them as an experiment.
Currently Mimi is still stalking the Dust for more humans to protect and befriend, often stopping by camps to try and ‘communicate’ with the humans.

Wren

26 | Human[size=5]ish[/size] | Masc | Ghost Corp, “Codename W3nd1g0.” | 6’3” | 176

Abyssal Connection: Possessive Subjugation - Wendigo Spirit

Soul Call

Can sense/see other Spirits around him, eyes glow purple when this power is in use.
Flaws - Causes Headaches, prolonged use causes nose bleeds and possibly bouts of madness. Unable to distinguish what is alive and what is not.

Form Change

Wren can temporarily twist his form into something more horrific- A twisted body of a Wendigo with the Deer skull head and all. Bumps up his strength and speed, makes him a dangerous foe.
Flaws - Hurts, a lot. Makes him very exhausted after using it, more of a last ditch effort.

(Locked) Plant Control

The ability to pull plants and control them, usually in the form of vines or branches.
Flaws - Hurts, Takes a lot of energy, if the plants are attacked, he can feel that pain too.

Goal:
Protection. He wants to protect himself, the Spirit within him wants to protect itself, the Wendigo wants to protect the Spectral Woods and the King of the Wild; which often causes internal conflict between Wren and the Spirit.

Personality:
Wren is kind, he’s happy to help almost immediately if someone asks for it. He’s also anxious and can often come off as skittish. He’s a protective sort of person, and can come across as fatherly.
The Spirit, however, is Stubborn, aggressive and, funnily enough, Possessive. They want Wren all to themselves to keep the Spectral Woods safe, and will often cause problems for Wren to cause him suffering so they can gain more control.

History:
Wren is a run-away from The Umbra Corp, they were going to use him as a soldier before he was possessed by The Spirit; and then he was going to be used as a test subject and a weapon of their own. He went through some bad testing in the Umbra Corp, and then promptly managed to escape when they allowed him freedom in the Dust.

He was picked up by the Ghost Corps, but kept at arm's length to start with, due to what he was. Especially because the experiments also caused him to have small, twisted antlers from his head in normal form anyway.
He doesn’t remember much before his time at the Umbra Corp, but he remembers having someone to care for, either a child or a younger sibling, but he’s… Unsure where they have gone.

Inventory:
Hand Gun
Two Small Battle Knives
Maps of different places in the Dust
‘Good luck’ Charm - Bird Skull necklace
Burnt photo; It’s a photo of him and someone else, but the someone else is completely burnt off.

Umbra: The Abyssal Connection

Admittedly I lied to you Etsy, I'm working on the character sheets now and have almost finished them both xD

Umbra: The Abyssal Connection

I'll be pming Etsy once I get home to get a yes/no of the idea I have ahaha.

Umbra: The Abyssal Connection

[WAVES VIOLENTLY] HI ETSY.
Lexi told me about this.
I love the idea of this but but but, Are we allowed to possibly play something in The Wilds? But like, possibly captured by any of the corps (Probably Umbra Corps by the sounds of things) as like a 'forced' contact?

Blame Lexi for showing me. I love Post Apoc and if I can play Monsters I'm entirely in

Dark Beyond: Voices of the Past

There we go ahaha, Maw sees big man and just thinks "Big food!" He's like a big idiot and I love him so much.

Dark Beyond: Voices of the Past

Awesome, will edit him in sometime soon ahaha

Dark Beyond: Voices of the Past

Caana, North Hole

Jay was about to say something before another scientist came over and grabbed her wrist that had grabbed the axe, she was about to turn around and say something before her other hand was grabbed before a needle was slipped directly into her jugular.
"Let me... G..o.." Jay started to struggle, but the extra movement only made the medication flood her body faster, causing her to slowly pass out as she was placed into the chamber.

"JAY!" Axen called out, he flew over towards the Scientists as they started to manhandle her, before a couple pterosaur companions moved to grab him, their sharp claws digging into his metal and damaging some of the gears as they did so, pulling him away from Jay as the scene faded and Axen, and Jay, were teleported away.

Caana, East Hole

Toren slowly opened his eyes slowly as he heard voices, he flinched slightly as he felt someone touching his forehead. He stopped Maw taking over, just in case the beast moved to snap towards Nova before he looked up to her as she asked if he was okay.
There was hesitation from the male for a moment, he opened his mouth to speak but Maw's words made their way through his mouth. "Hungry."

He moved to notice the other female that he heard, he blinked before lowering his head, it hurt his neck to be looking up too much like this. His eyes saw the protein bar, they widened slightly as one of his irises glimmered a soft blue. He opened his mouth, trying to keep it to the 'normal' hinge- Although vaguely failing as the edges of his lips stretched slightly with a stretch of what looked to be inky black 'saliva'- before he chomped down on the protein bar.

Toren seemed unphazed as the screams started from the bar, he was just happy to have food in his gullet. He hungrily finished the bar as the screams stopped, he rumbled slightly before he blinked as everything seemed to suddenly flood to white-

Caana, South Hole

Axen shook himself as he lifted himself off the ground, strange sparks coming off his wings where the other companions had attacked him and dragged him off. The Archeoptyx slowly looked over towards Buluc, noticing Jay on the wooden plate.
"JAY!" He called out loudly, his voice sounded vaguely more human than was expected from something like him, before he headed to push himself into the air before he crackled aggressively.

Flight Core damaged, gears not turning correctly. His diagnostics spoke to him, he ignored the warnings to go get fixed before he pushed himself forward aggressively.
There was the sound of metal cracking as he shot himself towards Buluc as he went to eat Jay, moving quickly to flex out his claws, sharpened by his anger as he flew up and carved into Bulucs' fingers that was holding Jay's unconscious body.

There was more sounds of metal cracking, small sparks of purple could be seen from between his wing blades, before there was some grinding and popping; the wing-blades suddenly exploding outwards, the metal shards digging into everything around him, but his wings were now a brilliant purple- looking more natural than the copper metal that was still on a lot of other areas on his body.

Toren looked around as his vision came back, he flexed his body slightly. Untied, freedom. He felt Maw rumble happily before he looked up briefly towards the ceiling as if he noticed someone looking down on them.
He then pulled his attention away as the strange robotic dinosaur seemed to yell and headed towards the large being about to eat someone.
Big food? Maw spoke out loud, Toren looked around the others for a moment to assess their reactions.

Toren made sure to try and not eat human flesh as much as possible, it made Toren feel like the bad guy; despite Maws' love of it. But the large giant in front of them made him think he wasn't a friend, and it would be allowed for him to try and bite pieces off him.
He waited, he wanted to make sure that it was a safe idea to charge forward.

Dark Beyond: Voices of the Past

I'm assuming that Toren also went to the South Hole as well or is he elsewhere now?
