Seluna
If one of them is me, I'm sorry, I won't be able to post until uh... over sixteen hours later (counting from the current time of this post). But I have an idea what to post... though I have a some questions.

1) Are there gates or there's this whole stretch of fences that they need to scale in order to get into the city?
2) Will you object if I use Deimos again? Out of my bunch, his ability is the most useful right now. Unless somebody else have some good ideas, do volunteer your chars.
Vex Core
1) Fences you have to scale, electrified for fortification.

2) And no, I wouldn't.
Nani?
I'm just here to announce that I'm leaving this RP. I can't connect with the plot well, and I don't see my character as in a situation he would let himself in.

He's no longer mine, so do with him as you will.
Vex Core
Sorry that you had to leave, but it would have been better if you had asked us through PM to discuss what you would like. That is what this Rp is for: allowing people to just jump in and connect with it without worrying about plots or storylines. But you can still enter back in whenever you wish.

And Seluna, sorry. A habit of mines I developed from places not consisting of such freeform we use, when your actions may not go as they plan due to another rper's own intervention in their following post. I'll stop the future tense here.
Nani?
Depending on what happens, I might jump back in later, but Saber is not coming back. Even storyline wise, I was planning to kill him on the Infiltration.
Vex Core
._. Okay, then.
Kurt
I'm BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK now before I post I have no clue where the hell Seth is, who he's with and what he's doing, you said you'd use him, but you kinda didn't so, I'm lost <shrugged.> give me a run down of what's going on, and Seth might even go challenge that tan skinned guy.
Vex Core
Basically, Katrine, Talt's character, is taking the rest to one of the safehouses she has requested be ready for them. So, Seth is with that group, yet you may have him wander off or maybe had followed Jason and Deimos if you want to interact in what's going on there.
Kurt
Alright, will do, I hope you don't mind if He barges in on what your doing >_>;
Seluna
I find it illogical, but since you have already posted, then nevermind. I'll make a post for Geras's side soon, if nobody from that group intends to post.
Kurt
I'm an illogical type of guy haha.gif woah..that's kinda creepy looking...Like he's about to have sex or something o_o ANYWAY!!!!! I have to ask, I know it's early, but will there be a fourth? Cause we might not kill both teams, or even one, in this. o_o
Seluna
Even if there will be a Dragon vs Phoenix IV, it won't be a direct sequel. I want this Triad War to finish in this one.

Just some things I spotted in your post that greatly confuses me (aside from the lack of logic in Seth's actions). One, Momos kicked Deimos, not Rudis. And Momos is not a big tanned guy. I'll understand if Seth mistakes Momos to be a Dragon since he's not acting nicely to Deimos, but I don't appreciate being unable to tell Rudis from Momos.

I suggest you edit your post. I dislike being confused about what my character is doing, even more than I dislike illogical actions.

Who's about to have sex?
Kurt
Er woops I read your post wrong >____> and Sorry I'm not the greatest RPer, heck I'm one of the worsts and..

That little Emo-con haha.gif <----THAT DUDE

BAM Edited my post, nod nod.
Vex Core
Weird. x.x

Well, my turn to post.
Kurt
Woah, Conflict. ANYWAY Vex, we need to talk, perferable a messenger, but if we have to PM, because I need to ask you a couple of things before I post, so, uh, other people, go ahead and post. o____o
Vex Core
Catch me on MSN, wilsondynasty@hotmail.com. If I'm not on, then just PM me.
Talietzin
Hey, guys. Just in case anyone's wondering, I'm actually waiting for the other people on my end to post. o.o Just one post and I'll write one up where we'll be at the safehouse. Come on guys; we don't want this RP to lag/die, do we? tongue.gif
Vex Core
No, we won't. I'm on the way. *superman take-off*
Gamer-Since-Birth
Im.. So...







...Lost cry.gif
Vex Core
You bet your ass, you are.

Seluna, hit me up on MSN next time I'm on. We need to plan the next thing. Including an update of what has happened thus far. I'll get that up later.
Kurt
Wooot ! GSB is back! It was awkward without you, Seth had no Boron to talk to xD and now he's in on some secret inside mission >_>
Rubedo
I'm taking a little break from this. But I'll let you know when I'll come back, but just take over my characters for a while.
Gamer-Since-Birth
someone have my character magcally appear out of nowhere lol, i want to be apart of this ! grrr...
Seluna
Gamer, your character is with Talietzin's group of character and the other character of mine (Geras). They are making their way to the safehouse. Alcaedo, the character that belongs to Yume-chan but I control, he predicted that there will be some action. So read the relevant posts, and you can honestly start posting.

Is it that confusing to split a large group into two paths?
Gamer-Since-Birth
u.u;;

Sry, I've had work everyday for the last 3 weeks, school projects and well... yea, no more excuses.
Ill read some previous posts before i post so i get an idea what the surroundings are.
that is, when i come from work at 7:30est ( >.<; )

Sowey, Sowey, Sowey all.
~Gamer
Seluna
Nah, it's okay. Everybody have their own lives and busy schedules. No need for apologies.

But seriously, is it confusing to have some many different paths at the same time?
Vex Core
It sort of is, but mainly because we're not use to controlling more than one party.

I can see that people are losing interest in this rp, mainly because it seems to be going nowhere, or at least, it's stalling too much in progressing the storyline. So, I'm just going to go ahead and get the plot underway. No need for me to hold back the action any longer.

My next post will start the beginning of the end.
Gamer-Since-Birth
I started to briefly review your guys last couple of posts so i kno where everyone, or the main people, stand.
I think, after i get home ( cry.gif from an eight hour shift cry.gif ) If i have the energry, ill review over them again so I kno where the plot might be heading.





#Gamer
Who Hates Work.
Seluna
Well, the anti-Dragon's side is merged back into one anyway. Except with two person away on their own for a bit. Shouldn't be too confusing from now. The only one who has any reason to make confusing posts will be me, because I still have the anti-Phoenix side to take care of. I'll just label my posts from now on.

Just a note, Phoenix side will move on its own timeline from now on. The only major exchange between the two teams was done and over with, so we are on separate paths.

Vex, no point stalling. If there's a chance to move the plot on, let's do so. I'm sick and tired of waiting and waiting and waiting. Rean, let's do the same with our side.
Ender
Name: Ender
Age: 18
Faction: Dragon
Appearance: Standing 5'9" with pale white skin he has short/mid-length blond and black hair which is usually brushed back/spiky with his bangs hanging down in a jagged pattern along his face. His cold blue eyes rarely show emotion. His well toned body is usually dressed in form-fitting black pants, along with a red dress shirt and black tie. Two semi-automatic handguns at his side. He usually carries a cigarette in his ear, even when he's already smoking one. Also wears a leather jacket on occasion.
Skills/Abilities: Ace gunslinger and swordsman. Very intelligent and often anticipates his opponents actions by reading their physical and mental reactions with his psychic abilities and quick reflexes. Though the full extent of his abilities is unknown to even himself, he is very adept at using Telepathy, being able to read peoples minds and even controlling them if need be, however the tole that takes on his mind and body is quite strenuous and is hardly used unless there is no other choice. Although his talent in the other abilities is undeveloped he often uses precognition and has glimpses of things before they happen, never very long, usually just a flash or a couple seconds at most, but just enough to let him know what's about to happen. Another ability he uses on rare occasion is clairvoyance, this ability being the most trying on his body he is able to see through the eyes of others, however when he does this he can not be moving or controlling his own body or vision.
Equipment: 2x semi-automatic handguns one white and one black in color.
Personality: Friendly but distant. Does not like getting close to people but is always civil and pleasant, even to his enemies.
Biography: Growing up in the country he was taken away to the city when the government took notice of his special powers. Growing up without a family he was trained in the arts of marksmanship and swordsmanship, and of course his psychic abilities, Telepathy in particular. When he turned 17 he broke out of the institute after realizing what he was being trained for. He dislikes killing however and managed to escape without killing a single person, just a few injuries. After escaping he changed his name to Ender, his real name unknown and found himself wandering the streets with nowhere to go and nothing to eat. After a chance meeting with some Phoenix members as they were ganging up on some Dragon members, he deftly eliminated the Phoenix members saving those of Dragon. Greatful for his help the Dragon members offered him shelter and food. Before he knew it he we a full blown member of Dragon, using his abilities to help aid them in their struggle against Phoenix.
Seluna
First, I would prefer if you state what sort of psychic abilities. There are a bunch of psychics in this roleplay and they have different abilities, for the most part. Please be more specific. If he is able to know what other people are going to do, then he has precognition (see link). Elaborate a bit more on it? Like if he has a sixth sense type of instincts, or if he also has visions... etc.

Second... how do you put cigarette in your ear? o.o
Ender
You know how people hold cigarettes on their ears? Anyway, I'll look at the link, I didn't know what types you guys had so I'll go fix that now smile.gif

edit* Do you guys have a list anywhere with the types of abilities?

edit2* Ok I edited my original post to include the different abilities.
Seluna
We don't encourage double-post, unless necessary. I deleted your second post, but I edited its content into the first one.

One thing to note:

QUOTE
Psychics - Through use of their mind, they are capable of doing things out of the ordinary, such as read people's minds, moving objects, or even creating fire. Usually, a psychic specializes in one or two abilities.

This is stated in the first OOC post. I'll suggest scratching one (or even two) of the three abilities, otherwise, you'll have to weaken all of them.

Very adept at using those three abilities. But to what extent? I'll show you an example.

QUOTE
Skills/Abilities: Mind Control, from basic telepathy to screwing with people’s mind and altering memory, with very limited dream-surfing ability. His eyes turn dark silver-blue when he is using the ability. And he will have major headaches every time after he uses anything that requires a great amount of concentration and power. Thus he seldom uses the stronger aspects of his abilities until situation requires him to.

This is my telepath character, Deimos. As you can read, he can read minds and even alter them to quite an extent. However, there is also a limit to what he can do. In his case, it's very major headaches. For some of my other characters, their abilities will destabilize or their bodies will weaken.

QUOTE
Skills/Abilities: He is a rare type of general psychic, having almost all the psychic abilities although he cannot activate most of them. His primary ability is telekinesis which is of slightly above average level, followed by telepathy which only allow him to hear particularly loud thoughts and even then they sound like it is underwater and from very far away, unless when he leeches off Deimos’s telepathy with their bond, empathy that only gives him a very slight impression of what the person he touches is feeling, and precognition which is very weak and fuzzy and totally not helpful. He can activate teleportation as well, but it moves him like only a foot away at the very most during emergency and he will be completely drained and exhausted. And quickening of his own healing if his energy is enough.

I have two characters with multiple psychics abilities, and this is one of them, Phobos. Four (three if you're feeling lenient) out of six of his active abilities are crap. Useless in battle and in more normal circumstances, but at least you know what he can do. His telekinesis is stronger than average only because he's a more powerful psychic than most. But if pit against a full telekinetic of the same power level, he's going to lose, hands down.

So in conclusion... it's not bad to be creative and have more abilities, but balance it out logically. And when you decided, elaborate more on what and how much the abilities do?

Precognition, cool. He sees visions? Or he have prophetic dreams? Or he has split second instincts of harmful actions directed towards him immediately after? Maybe he can tell when there is going to be a volcanic eruption or flood? That's precognition but not useful for battle. How are we to know?

Telepathy, he read minds only? Can he change thoughts of others? Is it controllable or he cannot help but listen to all the thoughts from people around?

Clairvoyant, more of remote viewing, hm? Firstly, how far? Does he need to go into trance-like state or his eyes are like X-Ray eyes, able to see through things? Does he need some sort of trigger or he can see anything he like?

I don't require every minute detail, but just pick some to give a sketch of how the abilities work. I can also say that 'hey my character is a psychic/paranormal/gifted, he exhibits xenoglossy' and have people thinking what the heck my character knows. If I add the sentence 'he knows how to speak Japanese even though he never learned or heard a word of it', then they have more of an idea what he can do.
Ender
Third time's a charm! Edited my original post, let's see how I did tongue.gif
Seluna
^^ I'm alright with it now. I'll let Vex have the final say since I don't have any problems with your character's abilities any more. The limitations are some very nice touches.
Kurt
AHAHAHAHA! Time to POST!!
Gamer-Since-Birth
Wow, Seluna is really cracking the whip now! xD
That, or he just over-did it, and Seluna had the dirty job or fixing it, lol.
Vex Core
His abilities remind of the Sharingan that Sasuke has in Naruto, but I'm fine with it, as long as he knows his limits. Good enough and thanks for cooperating with Seluna.

And yes, Seluna, I won't stall. Time for the massive posts like in the original.
Kurt
Post complete, tell me if ya want something changed or what not, and if you hate it xD
Ender
I haven't posted yet but that's just because I haven't found an appropriate spot to enter yet smile.gif
Kurt
Dead much? o_o if you hated my post THAT much you people could have just told me xD
Vex Core
oops.gif

Yeah. I still have this like three thousand word document that is my post and had to do some edits to it. Studying for midterms has given me less time to work on it, but I'll release it probably later today. I'll at least have some time for that.
Kurt
LAter today huh? Not to be NAGGY..but..it's been a week.
reanimation
Sorry for being so inactive, but I hope to have a post in sometime soon. ^^;
Kurt
It's okay, we've ALL been inactive...Uh....Yeah..I just Just bump it on the occasion...
Vex Core
xD Seluna, -poke- Waiting for your post.
Shroom Man 777
Name: John Baylor (formerly John Claymore, and John Raylor, and then The Lovely Joanna, and then John Claymore again, and then John Baylor, which was really his original name before he re-named himself John Claymore)

He can be called B.

Age: Early thirties (he lost count since he couldn’t find any birthday cakes for his birthdays and stopped bothering)

Faction: Dragon

Appearance: Six feet nothing tall, with unkempt but not-long black hair. Not really well-shaved. Semi-muscular with a pot belly. He wears shorts of unspecified color (they’re dirty) and a tattered Hawaiian shirt with bullet holes and smears of blood and human excrement. His gut slightly protrudes. And unknown to him, his shoes actually don’t match.

Skills/Abilities: A good-enough gunman, loves explosives (especially claymore anti-personnel mines). Dumbly lucky (but mostly dumb).

Because he fell off many places and landed head first, has had explosions go off right beside his brain, and had people repeatedly beat him in the head while screaming loud unpleasant things, he’s got +1 resistance to telepathy (and head trauma).

Equipment:
An Avomat Kalishnakov 47 (AK-47) rifle with an underbarrel grenade launcher. The magazines are duct-taped together, making reloading a bit quicker. The gun’s really scratched up, worn, but the inside’s well taken care off. The wood looks ugly. And a bayonet can be fitted if John ever gets into a swordfight.

A Colt M1911 pistol.

Various grenades and other boom-booms. And a heavy gigantic kit-bag full of other nasties. The kitbag is padlocked and B lost his keys.

A rusty, dull, slightly bent bayonet with a pointy tip, tetanus germs, and the blood of speared/stabbed Ebola-infested HIV-positive pygmy-eating cannibal (or zombie?) Zulus.

Personality: He’s no-#######, but he’s not crazy gung-ho. But he’s not very bright. He hit his head a couple of times over the years, so to some he may seem either insane, moronic, a little clever, or just plain silly or eccentric. But nothing over the top, unless the circumstances piss him off. He can get very angry and make things explode (with his mind. nah, not really. with landmines).

Biography: John Baylor was actually around during the first Triad War, where he got poisoned by Deimos, medicated by a hot chick, and then thrown in a dumpster or something. He got pissed at all the explosions and decided to leave (screw all of this!). Between now and then, he went to Africa and became a gun-runner – which was good since everyone else over there was starving and/or dying of AIDS while actively seeking out ways to better kill/maim/cannibalize their fellow man. However, when things turned out for the worst, with zombies and biblical plagues and were-hippos coming out of the blue, John decided to return home. Upon returning, he found it a desolated gang-infested war zone, just like how he left it. So, why not join in?

He just returned from Africa (It Is Not Safe In Africa).
Seluna
If Vex let's me, approved, my man. ^^ Welcome back, Shroom. It's been quite a while and you came back and the best time to do so.
Shroom Man 777
Thanks. Can I jump into the IC?
Seluna
^^ Yup, of course. Though it'll be nice to wait for Vex, but on your case, I would like to make an exception. If there's anything of your profile that needs editing, it can be done later. ^^
