Marrie Knight


What was Marrie even doing here? She had done nothing but gotten in the others way and herself hurt. She didn't even have the conviction to kill someone, even Sofron, without the adrenaline of near death fueling her. She was just an untrained dumbass getting in the others' way. Having been electrocuted, burned, and nearly drowned, she could barely even stand up. Her will to live, let alone fight, was dwindling fast. So she did the only thing she could think to do. She shot a Heal at Orion, set one on herself, and trudged her way through the water as quickly as she could, stumbling and staggering as she did.

By the time she even got to the counter Orion had vaulted over the fight would probably be over. Marrie didn't know if that was a good thing or a bad thing anymore.

@BenG85

I'll look into it, but I'm not a huge fan of Ghostbusters so I don't know if I'll be interested.
@BenG85
Questions:
- Correct me if I'm wrong, but is Favor basically a way to beat the limit of 4 at character creation for a stat if there's no creative use for it?
Edit: Second question, are stats visible to both players when in a competition? Or do you only know your own Avatar's stats?

... Honestly that's the only question I came up with, the rest is pretty self-explanatory if a bit more complex than a single read through will let me process. I'd be interested in joining if this does start up, for sure, and would be willing to be the "Joey Wheeler" mentioned in the OOC thread too if needed. :P
I'll be subscribed to this and the OOC so let me know if/when there's enough players to start on a CS. (Since I won't be going for the "first come first served" power.)

I hope this takes off, it does seem fun!
May I recommend making a new OOC, rather than using the one from two years ago? This seems like a neat concept based on said OOC, but I think directing people to a years old thread might throw some people off. Then again it might be irrelevant, so feel free to ignore this obviously.

Personally, I'll read the hiders tomorrow, I just did a quick read over of the premise and might be interested if you're still going to be making this rp.
Marrie Knight


Marrie was a lightningrod for mistakes, it seemed. And for electricity, given that there was a large surge of it running through her body. Enough to totally paralyze her in place as it continued to nearly kill her, until Orion touched her on the sleeve and restored her movement. That was enough to let her get out of the watery pan and into the fire, in a literal sense as Sofron's attack exploded nearby. Horrid screams filled her mind and took most of her focus. But it didn't do enough to stop her from instinctually casting a melody and running out of the fire, dragging Orion behind her as a whirlwind surrounded the blue-haired girl.

[Silver Self - Storm]

If it were strong enough to deflect a shotgun when bumped up a bit, it should be strong enough to push away the flames, Marrie assumed. Likely inaccurately. So she booked it to the other side of the large globe in the area and hoped that Orion would be able to do something useful while she recovered from being shocked, burned, and almost drowned. Not to mention the damned screaming of the damned stuck in her head.

Marrie Knight


Marrie was thrown against the wall by the force of the incoming tide, and smashed against it just as Orion did as well. Catching her breath gave her a precious four whole seconds to react, which she used to throw Orion over the counter to her left. She wasn't able to fully get her over, but she was high enough up on it to hopefully not be shocked by the toaster. Marrie pointed her instrument at the ground just in front of her, where the toaster would be landing, and then again at the ceiling above the same spot, casting a multi-melody before attempting to vault the counter as well.

Marrie had enough time to recover from casting Flight by the time she and Orion reached the door, which was probably a life saver. In preparation of a battle, she lengthened the chains on Apexer Predator while it was hidden in her sleeve to about 15 feet, careful to keep it all hidden and off the ground. When the door opened she saw Sofron holding a gun of some time, she didn't think, she just reacted. She cast a melody to hopefully save her life at the same time that she rushed at the man and swung out with her instrument, swinging it to try to wrap around and embed itself into to enemy esper.

[Silver Self - Warm: Storm]

As she swung her right arm around with her dagger flying in an arc towards Sofron, she was enveloped in a blistering wind that would hopefully keep away the gunfire and ran head-first towards him. She instinctively retracted her instrument's chains slowly, trying to compensate for closing the distance between her and her target.

Whelp. So much for leaving it to the other two. Bouncers were here, and fighting normal people was not going to fly. She didn't have time to wait and see what the others said. To Marrie, it was either time to act or time to start over with their planning. Seemed stupid to go in, potentially show themselves to Sofron, make a plan where they could be overheard, and then just leave.

...

Which, actually, made that the perfect plan, she realized. And hey, if the three who came in with them were any good in a fight, they might be able to take the bouncers and cause enough of a disturbance for the espers to go upstairs. Speaking of... She waved at them and smiled. "Thanks for the help, you three." She turned back to the other two espers. "Bouncers are coming, if you have any neat tricks, now's the time to use them. Preferably non-magical.

Yeah, that made sense. Marrie took one of the brooches from the aqua-girl and sighed. What was she even doing? Was it worth hiding her abilities from potential enemies if it meant hiding them from her allies too? Sure, she didn't have any experience working with anyone from the start like this, but how was she supposed to get any if she shied away from the opportunity when she had it? At the very least, she wanted to keep Apexer Predator hidden until it was required, but she could at least answer the other Knight's question.

"Wind, is mine. Light, Water, Wind... Not a bad combination." She lowered her voice so that the other two would have to strain to hear her. "I could probably fly one of you in through the window, but if he's stereotypical, he'll be looking out of it for the whole night." Her voice came back to the normal whisper she had been talking in. "I can handle the SMG. But I'll leave the strategizing to you two."

With that, she looked over at dancefloor. How many of them were aware of what was going on?

"Magitech drones." The mere thought of them probably scared the other students, but Crystal had been given a heads-up at the ball. Honestly, she'd love to see one up close and it seemed that she might just get that chance. The team arrived at their destination in the pouring rain. Well, they certainly couldn't have asked for better weather for their team makeup, aside from Rivka, unfortunately. Crystal recognized Liam, and wondered if he'd recognize her in her transformed state. Probably, seeing as the three of them likely had the chance to read up on the team members they'd be working with.

Good at picking up large usage of magic, huh? That'd be useful for them. Looking away from the three officers and out into the pouring rain, Crystal had to stifle a single giggle at the thought that came unbidden to her mind. It would be so easy to make a large output of magic by simply using Aoife and her own Elementum to freeze the ground. With that thought came the idea of Selma and Chie using their Elementum to turn the street into a skate-park, Rivka sliding along the ice with rockets of fire to send her moving. She envisioned her skating across the street, up ramps and slopes made by her teammates as she jumped through the air, blasting fire at the drones as she flew only to make a ten-point landing on another incline, spinning like a professional as she did. The thought was amusing, but not practical. Or maybe it was; for all she knew the drones could be weak to fire, but in the rain like this it probably wasn't going to matter if they were or not.

As she popped a piece of grape gum into her mouth, Crystal came to the decision not to voice the idea. On the one hand, it'd be distracting to the others. On the other, it might be taken seriously, and that would only lead to either horrible failure or horrible success, and she didn't want to stick out as particularly impressive on her first mission. She was an Ars Magi to serve the people, not to rise through the military ranks, and especially not to give an impression to those in power that she would somehow be better in a strategic role than on the field. Not that turning the streets into an ice-rink would give that impression...

She turned to her teammates. "Do we want to follow the lead of the other teams, or try to advance ahead of them to clear the path?" She knew that the answer should be the former, but knowing her teammates...

The spotlights began searching, and she wondered to herself who would be in the metaphorical spotlight when the mission was over.
