Personification Life - IC Part 7.5 [open]

[Cerillium]

The continuing saga of the housemates from hell (some of them literally) WELCOME to PART 7.5 The IC THREAD TO JOIN, SIGN UP AT THE OOC THREAD: http://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=246191 The background: This is a continuation for the occupants of the Building. It was founded by Dabfia and continues on as a legacy to his insane mind. IC Part I - The Beginning. IC Part Deux - New Building, Same Nonsense. IC Part III - Island Living for the Holidays. Part IV - Returned to Building, Oh My Gods! Part V - Five Golden Threads! (aka Oh My God... They're Breeding!) Part VI - The Day the Drones Destroyed the World Part VII - Return to Civilization Original OOC thread - Locked. Your behind-the-scenes glace at further insanity. OOC thread Part II - Locked. OOC Thread Part III - Locked. OOC Thread Part IV - Locked. To join: visit the OOC thread and submit an app. Someone will come along shortly to approve you (or laugh hysterically at your attempt to join). The Building Rules: We have rules? Well, only a few. They're guidelines, really... HAVE FUN! New characters get an apartment to themselves. You can stay there or eventually find a roomie to share an apartment with. You can play your characters as either serious or light. We're a mixed group. Got a problem with a player? Take it to that player in TG to resolve it. It's a fast-moving thread. It's okay to ask "where is everyone and what happened while I was gone?" in the OOC thread. Please save earth-shattering adventures until the weekends. Earth-shattering would be any side-story that affects the entire house (blowing up the building, planet-wide invasions, world destruction, etc). Minor stuff (zombie attacks, localized plagues, genderbenders, etc) can be ignored by players who are offline. You don't have to play everyday. Play as you can, according to your schedule. What kind of character can I play: We have anthros, velociraptors, gods, demons, angels, cyborgs, robots, magic users and mystical beings, warriors/soldiers/super soldiers, average mortals, A.I.s, thieves, spies, emperors, mad scientists, and whatever Bones and his brothers are. Anime seems to be a big theme, followed by offshoots of various pantheons and fiction. Please don't be a God Mode Sue. We have several powerful characters. They've evolved over time. They will kick your ass if you come in like gangbusters and try to dominate the thread. Look through the character tabs in the post below to gain an understanding of everyone's characters. Please message Swith Witherwward or Cerillium if you plan to play a god. There are specific guidelines in place to keep things in balance so non-god characters are treated fairly Don't piss the OP off. We're a fun group that accepts new players all the time. We also have our own Region. The Apartment Block is a 100% active region with an active Founder and WA Regional Delegate, a brand new off-site forum that's dedicated to role-playing, and friendly . You must be a member of our Region to partake in the off-site forum. Our Region does accept *ACTIVE* puppet nations for that purpose. Click on the icon below for more information. The Co-OPS for this RP are Tilt and Swith. Their word is law. They function as RP moderators for this thread. If you have a problem with a player that can't be solved via TG, take it to them. They serve as mediators. They have the authority to ask any player to leave for just cause. They also approve applications. Swith was the prior OP. She's taking a 500-page break to recover from surgery and recharge. Tilt has many years experience on NS in various forums. He's served as OP for multiple genre, although most know (and love) him best for the NS RP "Walking Dead". Bones is currently on vacation however he still holds Co-OP status. OP and Co-OPs function as mentors. They self-moderate this thread to keep it appropriate. This thread is run via committee between OP/Co-OPs. PL is a place where new players can learn the basics of RP. We provide players with a safe and controlled environment. The majority of our members are people looking to advance their skills or to learn more about RP in general. We offer RP workshops and mentoring. Advanced players are always welcome. Your experience and skills help others learn. Attention Players! The Sovereign-State (and City) of Bielefeld. 24 April, 2013: Bio/Chem hazards scrubbed. Environment restored. City Planners meet to discuss rebuild. Other nations beginning to send construction materials, etc. (Ideas for structuring in OOC.) 26 April, 2013: Construction begins on underground areas; utility, roads, railways mapped out by city planners; supplies begin to arrive in tent city proper.

Military base and airport construction starts. 14 May, 2013: The Residents return to the Building. 24 April, 2013: Swith is taking a 500-page break as OP to recover from surgery. She asked Ceril to OP for one thread only.

The Building 42nd Subabsurdus Street, Bielefeld Current location of our madness. It's bigger on the inside than on the outside and it seems to heal itself. The interior construction appears differently to each resident (tile vs wood floors vs carpet, metal staircases vs concrete vs wood) etc. Rent is paid via a small box in the lobby (near the reception desk). No one knows where your envelope goes once you slip it into the box. The landlord, O.C. Demens, hardly ever makes an appearance. New tenants will usually find their contract and a key at the reception desk. Common Areas This is where everybody seems to flock, including those with apartments that have kitchens. Breakfast is usually waffles and omelets. A full description can be found here. It's right off the communal dining room and kitchen, on the opposite side of the hall and easy to reach once someone came up the stairs from the lobby. The furniture was appropriated from a warehouse store, the decor came from various portals, and the massive 90" Aquos LED TV was affixed to the wall in a fashion that didn't permit it to be stolen (or stolen back by the cultist that Naomi had borrowed it from.) There was a piano, plenty of leather couches, an extra table for workspace, comfy leather chairs and a bar area. (Residents would need to provide their own booze.) A smaller tv is on other side of the room for game consoles. These are the front and back yards. Used for Zalgofests, combat, snowball fighs and who knows what else. It has a shed in the back which most residents avoid for good reason. Recently discovered by NVE, the gym is off the lobby on the first floor. It's a communal area where people can work out. There's an indoor pool, spa and steam room. Hallways. People roam them. Some people lurk in them. They have shadows to hide in. It has books. Donate some. Ground floor when you first enter the building. It has mailboxes by the front door (we never see the mailman but there's mail), a check in desk, a bench, an alcove with a payphone booth. It leads upstairs to the communal kitchen/dining room and rooms. It's a roof. It's at the top of the building. It's used for gazing at the night sky, defending the building (weapons seem to change at the drop of a hat), housing Bran's helicopter, and a quiet place to drink. Stairs lead up to it from the inside. Not So Common Areas and Other Information Some residents are cheap bastards and only rent rooms. They use the communal dining room and kitchen for their meals. Apartments have full kitchens, bedrooms, and living space. Cunning residents build secret labs in all sorts of odd places. They really aren't secret since everyone knows about them. For whatever ungodly reason, some residents utilize tunnels and air vents to get around. Expect them to drop in anywhere at any time. Some apartments exist in their own little universe and can not be penetrated by outside sources. These would include Bones & Co's apartment and The Chaos Apartments (from Lobby entrance on down). Don't try. You'll only become frustrated... or die. Things your characters would know since they live in the building... The restaurant across the street, Chaos, is heavily protected. The outer appearance is just a thin veneer mixed with illusion. People walking in the front door enter a pocket universe. When under attack, the door closes and the restaurant pinches off from the current universe. The apartment Building heals itself, but some apartments inside also skip out of the current dimension and can NOT be entered. I suggest you wait until the player is online before making an attempt to break and enter. The building rooftop is set up to defend the building (Tsu and Dab have put guns there before so I'm sure those are still in place). There's a massive rail gun in the back yard that GT's tech priests built for the last invasion; it doubles as an organ. A force field can be quickly placed to further protect the building. (It defeats magical/god powered attacks. It defeats nano, mechanical and supernatural infiltration. This came into play during the last invasion. It forms a sphere around the area, roughly ten blocks wide but it can be scaled back so it doesn't hinder a story too much. Conventional weapons won't affect it.) Various characters have close ties to their nation's military. Tsu and Bran have both called in their forces for support in the past. Ceril's nation is backed by CSMs and Dark Mechanicum... FT, with all the firepower found in 40K plus Chaos gods. Bones also has an advanced military. Swith's is bio-based FFT; they destroy planets instead of wage ground/air battles... no one here wants them to spore! There are more defenses... you'll encounter them as you go.

The Sovereign-State of Bielefeld Bielefeld has its own government as well as a city government and stands independent much like Monaco. The City of Bielefeld The City of Bielefeld was constructed after the third Drone invasion devastated the old city (Vaffelhelm). There are generic places around town: cinemas, libraries, grocery stores, arcades, golf courses, museums, etc. Location of Building. It's bordered by the woods and near the ocean. There are parks and schools, a bank, and a small pizza joint. Strip District. The Chaos Restaurant, Mei Garden and other restaurant spots are located here. It is upscale and multicultural, with a fine arts gallery and various top-of-the-line stores. A memorial to Dora and the two Conservators lost during the Drone invasion sits in Memorial Park at Ocean Point. This is also the location of a Wall inscribed with the names of those lost to invasions and natural disasters in the last year. It has a massive giraffe statue. Industrial District. Location of most of the industry, to include Quantum Automotive, Nikanor Non-Lethal Solutions, and Trinodyne Industries. This area has working docks, is near the airport and is the access point for the small yacht club's island. The river is a working river for shipping trade inland. Bielefeld Observatory sits high atop Cerillium hill. It is open to the public but those interested in using the facilities for research must pay for time on the telescope. Bielefeld International Airport. Bielefeld State Park. Good spot for relaxing. Lake Pearlelei Agricultural district. Foods Conglomerate can be found here. Bielefeld Military Installation. Contains barracks and the sub base. The airfield and training centers, and other installations, are not on this portion of the map. It is off limits to civilians. Primordials' coral reef. Vaffelhelm ruins. Wasteland. A land barrier prevents the curious from entering. It is still smoldering, and the undercity contains many of the deadly traps that Chaos hasn't bothered to remove. There are rumors that the cultists use it as a playground. Downtown. Black-Star Industries, the Bielefeld Hospital and Renegade Private Military Company can be found here. The Catholic Cathedral, financial institutions, and other major businesses are located within. The seat of the government and city hall sit in the heart of it. Museums, theatres, fine arts galleries, zoo and aquarium. Here are a few defined spaces (many of which are character owned): It's a bank around the corner. That is all. An Observatory high atop Cerillium Hill on the edge of town. Co-owned by two Chaos gods and located directly across the street from the Building, Chaos is an upscale restaurant during the day, a club at night. Waitstaff are all NPCs (demons, succubi, incubi, etc) in human disguise. Staff include a Head Chef (Cuisine) and a Breakfast Chef (Bran) as well as a bartender (Superbia). The building is indestructible given that it's in its own little pocket universe. It's a neutral zone; magic and combat inside is not allowed. Description here. Sometimes seen, but often not, these provide delivery service to the Building. They also provide deliverymen who end up eaten by certain residents. Owned by Pryfyn, this shop contains various droids (mainly military) which are designed and created on site. The ACF, or Aksarben Containment Foundation, is an ultra-secret organization under the direct control of the Aksarben government. No one besides the Royal Family, the members of the organization, and the uppermost levels of government know of it's existence. It's purpose is to contain and/or destroy things that would go against understood physics and things that have extremely anomalous properties. They begun transporting some of those objects to the Earth that the Apartment exists on, using a secure containment facility underneath their fronts in that universe, the Foods Conglomerate of Aksarben. That includes both their farming complex, and their HQ within the city itself. Run by Marie-Claire Toussaint, a "voodoo" seer. "Sometimes I see things beyond sight. Sometimes I see only de heart. I know where you go and where you come from." The glass window outside the shop appears caked with smoke. The main room is always cast in warm light, and scarves shroud tables and lamps. Everything seems to be shades of red, or shades of black, but other colors find their way in and stand out in sharp contrast like dandelions on a manicured lawn. The thick smell of incense and spices hangs in the air. Small rodent and cat skulls and beads hang in garlands from the ceiling and doorways, and festoon table tops. The shop is only open for business when Swith is online. It is located in the Strip District. A traditional Japanese restaurant and tea house located in the Strip District It's a park nearby dedicated to all those who have lost their lives during the various disasters and invasions. There's a wall of names. A single tree stands in the very center to commemorate the loss of the retired Conservator Dora. Located in the Industrial District, NNLS is owned by Bran Nikanor. It's where TF guns are manufactured. Shencheng, specializing in Shanghai cuisine, especially seafood. Primarily an informal lunch place. A private Investigation firm owned by Raymond "Ray" Jansma. Location: downtown. Specializing in advanced robotics research and development. A traditional Irish pub run by Minerva's lads. A favorite haunt of Fortu and Monique, Wu's Diamond Garden provides a variety of excellent Chinese fare... just don't look too closely at the waitstaff. Location: Strip District. Embassies The Embassy Program is NOT an official Diplomatic Thread element. The Ambassador represents the player. It is not a player character that will come into game play. The exception is Primordial who has always run an Ambassador. The embassies are located in the Embassy Complex in the Government Section downtown.

People Herein - In Alphabetical order Captain Ozzall 'Oddball' Griffin Due to his unfortunate and random teleportation, or whatever the bloody hell it was, he lacks his dress uniform and thus is stuck in the armor for now. A Captain in the Imperial Stormtrooper Corps, Ozzall has had a successful career participating in numerous campaigns on the outer rim squashing rebellions, slaughtering insurrectionists, and fighting off the occasional underground Vong organization. Over time, his crazy tactics and what can only be described as insane, unbelievable luck and skill lead to him rising through the ranks and eventually being promoted up to Captain. After being deployed in another successful mission, some asshole deity (at least he assumes so) zapped him away from his home galaxy and to this damned run-down piece of shit building. Or, that's at least how he views it due to the lack of flying 'cars', advanced medical technology, or how these doors have hinges. Oh, and he's a Clone. Dwelling: Apartment. Just a standard unfurnished apartment. Pryfyn An engineer for the Colicoid Creation Nest, Pryfyn is a droid designer and has created numerous military droids. Now using his stockpile of funds to travel around, he hitched a ride on an Imperial exploration fleet and has ended up on Earth. Deciding to spend some time on the amusing planet, Pryfyn has opened a shop near the apartment creating various droids (mainly military) while also taking an apartment. He also tags along on the gang's wacky adventures. Dwelling: Apartment Factbook Bones Totenkopf (on left, with knife) Herr Doktor Eva (NPC) - Naomi's adopted daughter. Back story here and here. Her hair is black and she has odd glyphs on her face and arms. Apartment BIO: An Eastern European Dictatorship that is usually always at war with the neighboring nations. Bran Branson "Bran" Nikanor: A Branriech Airforce mechanic who was born in the Capitol city in 1988, a few years before the collapse of the Soviet Union. He grew up most of his childhood with his sister until the Branriech Civil War, he was also one of the first generation of young boys conscripted into the reformed military at age 15. After a few years of distinguishing himself as an exemplary mechanic, he was eventually marked for death by the current High General. He escaped through an experimental teleporter and ended up in the Fallout shelter of the apartment. Rylli Born in 1989, Amaryllis "Rylli" Volkova grew up in a rural village. Her father was killed in the Soviet-Afghan conflict and her mother was killed in an auto crash a year later. Rylli then lived with her older brother who was shot down and killed in an Airforce skirmish. Having no other family, Rylli joined the Branriech Airforce and was trained as a Fighter pilot, she met Bran and fell in love with him her first year of flying. She would later defect from the Branriech and has taken up residence with Bran. Natiya Natiya Nikanor, on the left, Bran's older sister was born in 1986. She was nearly conscripted into the Branriech Military along with Bran, but a quick descision from their parents saved Natiya from what would have been frontline service. They sent her to America just before their untimely demise at the hands of a firing squad, she went to college for a few years riding on the Nikanor's vast fortune before dropping out and joining a PMC before quitting that too. Now she leads a quiet life in the upper floor of the apartment. Rachelle Born in 2006, Rachelle and her family were captured by the Drone Empire. During testing, her mother was presumed killed while her father protected her afterwards. During Rylli's escape, Rachelle and her father tagged along while all the other subjects were gunned down behind them. As the trio was making their way to salvation, D4 killed Rachelle's father in a fit of rage, leaving Rylli and Rachelle to board the shuttle and escape back to Earth. Not knowing the true fate of either of her parents (But knowing she won't see them again), Rachelle has tried her best to get used to Bran and Rylli as her new parents. Kei Kei, the creator of the Branriech and it's people. A Demon or a Goddess (No-one knows and she doesn't care.) who is directly responsible for the creation of the Branriech as a state and as a people. Anyone hailing from the Branriech is descended from her and she refers to them as 'her childeren'. She claims to have no name but will respond to it if someone happened to find out. Apartment, Bran's room Bran and Co's beach house Ceril BIO: Unknown in age, Thaddeus Cerillium is quiet and intelligent but does have a sense of humor. He's currently employed by Swith. His primary function is classified; his secondary role is to protect Rachelle Nikanor. He carries the blessing of a god which aids him in his duties. He's ugly (even for a his people) and it doesn't bother him. He's engaged to Naomi and his children are Wren, Marcus and Eva. Marcus Marcus is Ceril's 15 year old son. Wren Wren is Ceril's older daughter. She's a Tech-priest, like her father. Ogotimatu God of Plagues and Death. Ogoti is also a god of rebirth and healing. Chloe Chloe is bookish and a damn good healer. She plays the cello. She makes those little puff pastries that you see at fancy parties, you know... the ones that just melt on the tongue? She's so prim and proper, and very sweet. Her laughter is like silver bells in a gentle breeze. It's absolutely infectious and brings joy to the heart. *This is a SHARED PC with Swith Witherward* The Chaos Apartments: Info Here Atoshmatu God of War. He is living at the abandoned sub base. Deuce Chaos Space Marine. He has an apartment in the Building. Denise Bellerose She's French! BIO - The Drone Empire, a Multi-Galactic Empire of machines which destroys or ruins all that are not like it, most units of the Empire act like a part of a hivemind, completely unwilling to disobey the wishes of the empire. Recently, the Empire has been expanding into the Milky way rapidly, and this planet is now a prime target for possible Purging, but after facing massive defeat, they won't be coming back for a while. The Data Archives Dani Really, she was once a fully robotic being, but due to necessary intervention, she has since been out into a human body.. mostly human, anyway. She is quite good with constructing devices or computers, pulling from her memories as a Drone, and has a profound hate for birds. All birds. She also seems to lack a large sense of what is right and what is wrong, accompanied by other traits that add to her strange insanity. The Progeny The Progeny is yet another attempt by the Drone Empire to survey and sabotage Earth's relatively primitive yet impressive defense array, but he is notably different from his predecessors due to the Immortallian technology attributed to his creation from Caligulus. He has an unknown array of weapons and various capabilities, though some including telepathy, telekinesis, technopathy and shape shifting. In addition, he possesses nearly unlimited resources to conduct his operations, and is quite calculated in his actions. Failure is not acceptable this time. Having taken up the identity of "Peter", he has infiltrated the Apartment and established a basic relationship with various inhabitants, acting as a timid, somewhat unique young man currently courting Dani. Caligulus A being similar if not identical to Darius, of whom he hates, he is a rather corrupted figure. Having gotten into a serious dispute between Darius over who was responsible of the accidental closure of 600 Universes resulting in eons of scientific research lost, he was eventually blamed and shunned largely by the Immortallius's scientific community, being reduced to a minor rank responsible for the closure or temporary maintenance of a realm should it's regular caretaker be called upon a task of greater importance. With Darius's apparent demise due to a systemic meltdown, he has been put in charge of closing the Universe Darius discovered and cared for, however, Caligulus has far more vengeful plans in mind. Having easily manipulated the local Drone Empire into doing his bidding, he has once again put the Earth in danger from another Invasion, one greater than any ever seen by the Earth prior.[/code] The Replicates Servants of The Progeny, they do his global bidding, and unlike he, usually replace individuals rather than establish their own personality, they clone the mental and visual characteristics and then normally kill the original subject while they fulfill his/her's normal position while acting truly as an operative to ultimately disable the Earth's primary defenses. They have some of the abilities of The Progeny, though they lack more of it's advanced capabilities. The Xarada The robot-servant of The Progeny, it is a small spider-like creature that takes various forms, though normally it takes the appearance of a black cat. When not lurking around, guarding Peter's apartment and serving as Peter's central A.I to base his operations upon and stay in contract with the vastly distant Drone relays, it serves as a reconnaissance bot, doing things Replicates might not be able to. It has weapons such as it sharp legs and a short array of mental weapons while it is highly adept in the digital sense, equipped with some of the best Drone cyber-weapons and defenses available. It's loyalty is inequivalent by any other to the Progeny, and it will viciously fight for him. The Caretaker The supposed overseer of Earth after the second Drone invasion, he is a mysterious figure, who resides in The Aetherian, a strange yet small collection of enormous ships. He has unknown capabilities and origins, only known to answer the The Observant, but no more information beyond that. Dani's Lab Raymond Jansma Raymond Jansma (Appearance: Imagine this crossed with a bit of this. Coming in at 6'0'' and 176 pounds, Ray is a medium-framed male human. He has Hazel eyes, alongside trimmed black hair. Ray has also gone through a complicated surgical appearance that has changed his appearance to that of a furry. His "fursona" is a grey fox; he is predominantly covered in grey and white fur, with short ears and a tail of approx. 1 1/2 inches in length.) Ray had always liked the idea of adventure as a child; despite his intelligence, his boyhood persuaded him at the age of 22 to pursue a job within the Wolf City PD. While certainly not pretty, he enjoyed a somewhat glamorous position as a detective within the Northern end of the city. He worked with such legends as Mark Phelps and Jesse Parks, and even enjoyed a small amount of public fame for famously busting a real estate extortion ring. He served a good six years with the department, and loved every minute of it. Well, almost every minute. In the beginning of his sixth year in the PD, he got reprimanded for inappropriately handling a (rather personal) case involving a (rather asshole-ish) family member, and was strung out on excessive use of force. His position all but gone, he resigned and attempted to begin a private investigation firm, to no success. However, his investigation talents didn't go unnoticed. Officially recruited by the Strategic Threat Analysis Bureau as a "sleeper agent," Ray was joined into the secretive "Unit 317;" a rumored government agency responsible for everything from extraterrestrial analysis to active engagement of foreign threats on DU soil. Under the supervision of the Minister of Defense, it turned to be a high-tech paramilitary group of 2,000 that handles sensitive situations for numerous sections of the government. Despite his one-time fame, Ray fit in perfectly. Originally handling minor investigations, he eventually moved up to being an officer within the group after only a year in The Unit. However, recently he's been actually placed on sleeper duty after a request by his superiors. So, after a recent string of very odd events, he's managed to find himself here, at the apartment. He's got a few stories to tell, with the added bonus of telling them like an old, crazy man. Dwelling: Apartment, preferably with the constant sound of jazz to make Ray feel somewhat important, action-y and less confused. Simon Clark In a time where blacks still struggled to find their way into middle-class positions, Simon was smooth-sailing to becoming a legend within the intelligence community. Operations against the Soviet Union and the People's Republic of China, crack intelligence gathering abilities, natural-born interrogator: he was all of those. The civil rights act of 1959 in Erucia came out when Simon was only 10 years old. He was born to a lower-class family in the projects of Palmont City; a rough life for anyone. They struggled to get by at times, and while the CRA '59 certainly was a milestone, blacks in Erucia still found themselves persecuted just for being a minority. However, his high grades and excellent geographical knowledge got Simon noticed by the right people in '67, and the AIG (Agency of Intelligence Gathering) offered to pay his college education on the condition of Mr. Clark working for them. As a result, the legend of "The Black Lotus" was born. He was a founding member of both the Strategic Threat Analysis Bureau and of Unit 317; unofficially acknowledged for both. Before 317 was initiated in 2004, it's granddaddy within the AIG was Union Company: generally inefficient in its role of extraterrestrial and supernatural studies until 1975, the date of Simon's entrance. It was transformed from a loose coalition of operators and officers into a fierce defender of the homeland, operating from behind the lines. Of course, its restrictions as stated under its informal constitution lead to its replacement. Simon is now 74, far too old for a operative. But due to his insistence at refusing membership on the Unit 317 Commanding Council, he's been placed on a mixed role: serving STAB's presence at the Erucian Embassy in Bielfield. Dwelling: outside of building. Cornelius Thriller Born in 1995 in New York City, new york. Was abandoned by his parents at the age of 3 and almost died on December 19, 1998 when Margret Thriller, a successful business woman and stock holder, took pity on him and took him in, however, his expuosure to the elements left him sick and eventually leaving him blind in his left eye. Today, 180 years old, 10 feet tall, weighing at a near ton, and has an IQ that is superb over all. Emperor of the Germanic Templars since 2095. Has plans to unite humanity under his banner, and conquer Earth. When it comes to warfare, and hand to hand combat, none can best him. When he is in his human body, he's 6''5 and weighs 170 lb. Joesph Aleki R. Smyth Born in 2159, of a father who works as an Honor Guard in the House of Representatives, First District and a mother who worked as a scientist on Oda Island, Third District. Joined the conscription force at the age of 16, later to be promoted to Commander of the Clone Army at the age of 21. Has been augmented with special genetic mutation add-ons such as limb regrowth, thicker skin, and electric tonic. M.A.I A maintenance A.I. built inside Thriller's body to help defend against virtual infections, provides updates and daily scans to make sure the Emperor stays immortal. Maria Khrolodna F. Smyth Born in 2156, older sister to Aleki. Likes to start a fight with him and prove she is the better of the two. She is the Battle Matriarch of the Feminine Forces and has been in many skirmishes with Aleki for the past year when they were not at the apartment.

Vitellius Barox Born in Hephaestus, Fourth District, Planet Gliese 581g. Had a rare nondisjunction that is known as Trisomy 13.

A room that he has purchased from the property and claimed it for Germanic Templars to help nullify him having to pay rent on it. Swith's editing prerogative/addition: Krutes: seriously awesome native species of Gliese 581 recently brought back from extinction by Cornelius Thriller and the Germanic Templars. Known for awesome architecture, Jamaican-type accents and really tasty fish dishes. Giovenith Giovenith is the daughter of a benevolent goddess called Pearlelei, who is currently at war with a newer group of deities who wish to "delete" the universe. She is an artist, posses a whistle that can perform unusual abilities, and has hammerspace pockets. She is seemingly insane, but it is possible that this is an affect of her mother's. She has been shown on several occasions to have powers of her own, although she is not necessarily a full goddess like her mom. She is about 16 years old, but often acts much younger than that. Apartment Jacob Aksarben He's the personification of New Aksarben. He holds all the same views as the country. He is a liberal, and idealist. He's also a very nice guy and likes to help people. His idealism can also cloud his judgement. He is also very smart and likes to mess with technology. Apartment Albert Aksarben Obviously he looks the same as Jacob, but with purple eyes(purple is the color of royalty) Albert is a personification of Aksarben and it's royalty. he feels entitled to everything. He is also a military man, and chivalrous. He is an expert with many types of weapons, and can learn how to use knew ones relatively quickly. Octavian Aksarben He is the crown prince of Aksarben. He is quiet, usually serious, and somewhat cold. He doesn't really care for anyone but himself. He has a hard time making friends and understanding others. He still cares for his nation's people, though, and does anything to help his nation become more powerful. He is also somewhat of a spoiled brat, as he was raised to become the next Emperor, so expects everything to be handed to him. He's also the highest officer in the Aksarben military, aside from Albert and the Emperor himself. The Emperor, Iacobos, sent him to the universe the building is in to keep him safe, and to learn about the different universe. Dwelling: Room next to Albert and Jacob's Sigtrygg "Sig" Ingvarsson Snjalli Sigtrygg is a prince of the kingdom of Finland in the Late Tenth century AD. He is from an alternate history of Earth, diverging sometime in the late 800s. He is the brother to the current King, Faste Karlsson. He was born to the then Duke Karl the Wise of the Duchy of Norrland.(Karl later declared himself the king of Finland following the civil war due to the King of Sweden's conversion to Catholicism). He grew up, tutored by his father for years until he was of age. Then, he was married to Princess Yvla of the Norse kingdom of England. He learned English from her, due to having not much else besides raiding and pillaging to take up his time. He left for Miklagard in 950 AD, to join the Varangian guard. He was never going to inherit anything, so he had nothing to lose by joining the guard of the Byzantine Empire. He fought bravely for years, distinguishing himself against the enemies of the Emperor. During this time, he learned to speak some Greek, to make his life easier. During a battle against the Abbasid Caliphate, Sigtrygg disappeared, and was presumed dead by his family back in Scandinavia. In truth, he was somehow transported across time and space to the universe of the apartment building. The Norse viking is very disoriented, and likely have trouble understanding how the modern world worked, due to the fact he lived in a feudal norse society. He is quite cynical, ambitious, and gregarious, but also very kind and charitable. He is still a viking however, and an experienced fighter. He has the remarkable ability to be able to adapt to knew situations easily. Dwelling: room. Neil Von Eldritch (aka NVE aka "My Killer") A psychotic supergenius mad scientist velociraptor MacGyver of atomic schizo tech bent on destroying the human race (and all mammals for that matter) with time travel, genetic engineering, lasers, nukes, and napalm (lots and lots of napalm) raising a family with Gretta. His IQ ha been measured to be 700 in comparison to mammals. Currently he uses a Telluric Interchanger to disguise himself as human or other species. NVE's Human disguise Supporting Characters: Gretchen "Gretta" Von Eldritch (aka "My Surgeon") Neil's wife, partner in crime, and match in velociraptor form. Only a wee bit more level-headed, and snout-over-claws in love with him. She is a bit more hostile towards mammals, but has more self-control. She has had three children with Neil named Robert, Swift, and Jenny. Gretta's Human disguise NVE042 (aka Fortu aka Dr. Martin Fortu) Computer hacker who is more competent and less crazy than NVE. Can hack the Pentagon at the speed of thought...depending on the speed of the internet connection. He was cloned from NVE and then was beheaded by Dabfia. He now has a humanoid body with a few implanted devices of his design. Fortu is in a relationship with Monique, and is always willing to help. NVE (aka Agent NVE aka The Agent) A psychotic supergenius mad scientist velociraptor MacGyver of atomic schizo tech bent on destroying the human race (and all mammals for that matter) with time travel, genetic engineering, lasers, nukes, and napalm (lots and lots of napalm) raising a family with Gretta. His IQ has been measured to be 700 in comparison to mammals. He was cloned from Neil while he was gone to keep Fortu company...for some odd reason (seeing as Fortu didn't need company). This clone only goes by his initial codename, he lacks memory of the apartment and Gretta and is not particularly fond of others. Dr. Arthur VanDelay Another clone of Neil, this one was created to empathize with humans. He is licenced to practice psychiatry, athough most of his solutions are mind altering drugs. He cares about people and follows the rules but won't back down from a fight. Nevvie Guess what? Another Clone of Neil! Nevvie was created to help in the lab. Athough female and a hybrid of Raptor and Human biology, Nevvie has only half the strenth and speed of a raptor but all the intelligence. On the other hand, the prehensile tongue and venom sacs are new. She is quick on the draw and very flexible. She often takes the third option and the route less traveled.

Insidious has completely embraced the ideas of the Luxan Empire like few Runners have and is now a completely amoral machine dedicated to excess and hedonism. Unfortunately she was born with natural gift for reading people’s emotions and faces that, due to the magic surrounding her, has bloomed into an uncontrollable ability to hear people’s thoughts and to manipulate people minds. In addition to building creature for art she has also changed her own body into a more artistic form, with genetic cell memory, a host of 21 extra organs, and shape shifting abilities she is a true master of the flesh.

Room 6C Primordial was recently granted the status of Earl for his help in R.A.D.I.C.A.L. and as part of such he requested to become the Luxan ambassador of The Nation, as such Primordial's “apartment” is in reality a foreign embassy and governed by international law. The embassy is ACTUALLY on Luxan soil because the door is a dimensional gate to the group’s home country. List of rooms Entrance Den Primordials room Insidious room Ageis’s room Lab Outside Command Center Library Kat brown Kat is about five foot eight, thin, pale skin and blonde hair with blue eyes. Basically Swedish and Irish. She was born in Sweden. Speaks Swedish sometimes. Dwelling: apartment CHAOS GROUP Charumati Thriller... aka "Swith" (She is not a personification or representation of the nation of Swith Witherward.) Her matrix houses a chaos god who chooses to remain in female form while in this dimension. Pleasure, excess and perfection (as well as hedonism, lust and pain) were once part of her mantra. She, along with her brother Ogoti, have slowly become disenchanted with the politics of their pantheon. She recently stumbled upon some things that gods of her pantheon term as "heresy" and her subsequent death and resurrection have left her feeling a bit of animosity towards some of them. Swith never hesitates to foster the desire in others to improve upon themselves. Freed from the shackles of her pantheon's severe nature, she has rediscovered the beauty of the universe. She still hosts nefarious and oft-hedonistic Zalgofests with Bones, however. Swith is married to Cornelius Thriller, the Immortal Emperor of the Germanic Templars. They have two children (twins), Siduer and Sydney. Naomi She is a splinter from Swith's being and shares many of her abilities. She is capable of great devastation when under pressure. She's love personified and protective of her friends and humanity. She is the adoptive mother to Eva, a young and emotionally traumatized girl from the Friedhof (Bone Fort NPC.) She is also Ceril's fiance and mother to his children, Marcus and Wren. Support Cast Blythe One of the top ranking succubus of Lust's minions, Blythe's life seems to have taken a dramatic swing for the better since meeting the demon Superbia and archangel Lucius. Hopelessly (and equally) in love with both, Blythe is content with the love triangle and (being a succubus) sees it as perfectly normal and rational. Minerva Blackwater Swith's Cultist Leader. Chi A chibi maxtrix thrust upon Swith when her essence needed a temporary body. Created by Herr Doktor and enlarged by Swith, Chi is the babysitter for Marcus, Eva, and the twins. Rarely seen NPC. The Cultists Don't ask. They're there. All of them have work Visas. Mama Toussaint Marie-Claire Toussaint is neither old or young, but she has an exotic air to her. Her skin, tattooed with odd symbols and glyphs, is the inviting color of café au lait. She keeps her own business but has abilities that transcend nature. The Chaos Apartments Full description. Please read that before attempting to break in. It is in a pocket dimension that can't be breached. If you attempt to break in, you might as well make up a new character. Access to the apartments is via a boring door in the Building Lobby. A short flight of stairs will take people to a foyer containing four doors. One door is for Ogoti's apartment, the other is for the Cultist Leader's apartment, and the third is for Naomi and Ceril's apartment. The fourth door is impossible to see but it leads to Swith's lair. Schematic SWITH WITHERWARD NATION Nation Name: Swith Witherward Nation Bio (optional): A colony of the Nifid. Rodney Bodkins Bodkins is a Triumvir Scientem Representative, the Witherward of Swith... er, no relation to your own Swith. Swith Witherward contracts with char!Swith for research. He's come to manage those assets. Apartment Cuisine Sensitive about his height. Lives for good food. Often found uncomfortably hunched over in kitchens, where he can usually be seen experimenting with new recipes. Pretentious, so he puts on a different accent every so often. Dramatic, so he'll do other random things at times, too. To get a better idea of his appearance: 7'5" 290 lbs, gray hair, green eyes. Early 50s. Apply that to his picture (linked above). MB A magical rabbit with several powers, including that of teleportation. Enjoys playing poker, eating walls and metal, drinking WD40 mojitos, and being a pyromaniac. Claims Cuisine is his familiar.

Capable of stopping time for everyone except other supernaturals, and sees people's remaining lifespans (referred to as 'readouts') above their heads. Strongly dislikes cold; enjoys travel, darts, and playing pranks. Dora A fallen former colleague of Luce's. On readouts...Most ordinary people have decreasing positive numbers on their readouts. Supernaturals have solid or hollow infinity symbols, depending on whether they resist all causes of death or merely old age. Laika, whom Dora was always chasing but never able to catch, has a negative number, due to her being out-of-place, timeline-speaking.

Torii was taken in by her father in the east. After being lost, she spent her childhood living as an orphan in a small border town. She was caught up in one of the big border clashes, and grew up learning how to fight and hide. She was eventually conscripted by the Confederate Army and Air Corps, rather than killed like many other civilians. Due to her involvement in many bloody conflicts, and the use of WMDs on her own home, Torii is mentally stressed, and suffers from terrible nightmares and bouts of suicidal depression. Apartment: A small enough, humble apartment in the style of many traditional Torsiedellie homes. The main room includes a large bed, Katya's mini-lounge in the left corner, by a small window. To the right is a small kitchen, with doors to a smaller bedroom and a laundry room. General Architectural style. Katya Dimitrov IV Taller than her sister, Katya was raised by her mother, with the nobility. She spent her childhood learning how to play Violin and Piano, be a proper girl, and be like her mother. At the age of 15, with her mother's approval, Katya voluntarily joined the Western Air Force, but never saw service. Instead, she was put in the National "Organization", and designated Agent-09. She shares her room with Torii. Dimitrus Alexandrovna Dimitrus seems at first like a lonely, ignored, socially awkward girl. In reality, she can be a bright, artistic young woman, which is why the Führer took her as his protegé. She developed a minor attraction to Bran upon meeting him in the Capitol, and has since taken it to an obsession, hellbent on acquiring her "trophy". These actions and personality traits are unknown to Romanus, and barely noticed by Korovin, who still calls her a "Good kid", and looks out for her around the capitol, though he knows that she can't be allowed in power. She is the CO to Torii, and an old friend to Katya. She is 21-22 years old, 5'6, 135lbs, and has an Albino genetic defect. Due to this, she's always been self conscious. She's also been the target of minor bullying. She hates bringing up the subject of her Albinism. She has no apartment. She appears rarely, during visit to check on the building. Azarath R'zaman His armour Born in southwestern Vvardenfell, Azarath lived an adventurous youth as a carefree, budding swordsman.

He still found plenty of adventure and companionship in the then-disrupted Redoran Guard of Morrowind.

The organization that created them and their mission is still unknown Tieria was once hooked up to a computer mainframe known as Veda. However, after losing a fight to Tsu, he was deemed to be defective and was disconnected from Veda. This gave Tieria free will as well as his own emotions and personality. He now seeks to find a new purpose other than destroying the world as we know it. He is some 5 1/2 feet tall, 120 pounds, and has dark purple hair, red eyes, and wears glasses.

He has a black cat named Miku Dwelling: Room Yuri Yuri is the personification of Urran. She was born when the nation was founded and will survive until it ceases to exist.

She has since wondered the world, dodging vampire slayers and daylight, while trying to make friends all at the same time. She is ashamed of what she is and has a problem with sucking the blood of sentient beings. Dwelling: N/A

Other Haunts These are established areas outside the city where players RP as a group for holidays or vacations. The Planet: Gliese 581 is the Germanic Templars home world. It's set in a future timeline and not in the same solar system, obviously. The Setting: Now then, all of the rooms are the same, however, you can customize them and stuff and all of that good jazz... Anyway, here are the places: Throne Room Equivalent of the Lobby, where you would enter with a throne in it. Did I mention there was a throne in it? Stay off the Emperor's Thinking Bench. Library Located off to the right of the Throne room. Specifically past the first door on your right. Books vary between old paper and leather back to modern pads that read the book to you (now your child too can read and listen to Shakespeare's Macbeth). By the way, it's a huge library with tower stairs leading up to the second floor as well as a balcony that over looks the lower part of the library. Palace Dining Room Not much other than it's a huge frikken dining room with plenty to sit. On the left side of the building (Assuming if you were looking at it from the front). Recreational area In the back of the building. Includes a dojo and from there, it breaks off into a pool/spa area off to the left, weight room to the right, and Virtual Simulation room directly across the dojo. Living area Right side of the building where there are a labyrinth of hallways and rooms. Strip The place that is two miles long and lays out front of the palace pass it's walls. With it are a Ch'as, a few kiosks and stores, and directly across is a parking garage for air vehicles. Side note Doors are automatic unless locked. Lights tend to come on down the hallway or room you enter, and kitchen is pretty much off limits since food is either brought to your room or to the dining room (And by food I do not mean the people bringing it). In the far back of the building there is a nice garden. Getting There: CRUISE! Yeah baby! You're taking a ship through time. Players who are NOT online when the ship leaves... we can either say your characters boarded the ship, or Minerva or Klaus or Swith can bring you to Gliese 581. I'd rather not have to ferry people. Do I hafta go?: This is optional. You don't have to leave. However, I won't be RPing the rebuild. It's too much. Your characters won't have anything to do because they're stuck behind Ogoti's forcefield and can't leave. You have a tent. You have a chow hall. There aren't any ponds, you can't touch the ocean because it's polluted at the moment, there isn't any tv or radios, you can't hunt cultists for souls/blood/entertainment (they'll kill you) and you're surrounded by nasty things which will eat you even if you could leave the forcefield... and the sun sometimes shines. It has all the fun of a concentration camp minus gas chambers and furnaces. Seriously. Staying will NOT give you a leg up on anything. We'll be there a week minimum. Possibly longer if you guys are having a ton of fun. The Background: Gliese 581 is the Templar's home world. Thriller is their emperor. The people know him in his mech suit form. He has a fully-fleshed planet, meaning the player has taken the time to set up culture, areas for fun or industry or various religions whatever. The Rules: 1) No tech stealing. You can ask to trade tech. GT has to agree to it. 2) Absolutely respect the property of the nation. 3) ASK GT before doing something that can change Germanic Templar canon. 4) Big one... it's a future setting on a planet far away. No bringing in militaries, extra characters etc. 5) GT functions as a Co-OP while players are on his planet. His decisions on what can or can't be done must be followed. He has the right to ask people to REDACT if they do something that violates his canon, culture or concept. These rules apply to all future trips to other nations. Ask OOC if you're not sure about an action. I expect the same respect given to Bran when he lets us visit his nation, and to Torsi when we visit his, etc.

Swith was once again snuggled in bed and cuddling with the twins. They'd fallen asleep while leaning against her.

Ogoti removed the book from Sapphire's lap. He covered her with a blanket and set a glass of water on the spindle legged table next to her.

Ceril kissed Eva and Marcus as they slept, checked on Wren, and then put himself to bed. Naomi was asleep so he slipped an arm under her and fell asleep listening to the sound of her breathing.

The weather channel told Klaus what he already knew: it was raining.

He sat on the couch in his pajamas with bare feet propped on the low coffee table.

Minerva let herself in and went past the living room and to her bedroom. She took a nice, long shower, braided her hair, and threw on her night things and some socks. She shuffled to the kitchen for a glass of grape juice, and shuffled into the living room.

"Raining still?" she said as she flopped onto the couch.

[Cerillium]

Minerva let herself in and went past the living room and to her bedroom. She took a nice, long shower, braided her hair, and threw on her night things and some socks. She shuffled to the kitchen for a glass of grape juice, and shuffled into the living room.

"Raining still?" she said as she flopped onto the couch.

"You expect it to do anything else? What's that? Juice? We had juice?"

He leaned over and offered his bowl of popcorn.

"It does appear so. I find the lack of Tyranids and Eldar pleasing. Along with those horrible autonomous Necron abominations as well." Volturius noted to Tipper while leading he back to the elevator.

"Y'know, with that power sword you should get a Commissar hat. You'd look adorable." Volturius advised while they road down and stepped off, walking over to Chaos.


Meanwhile at a vacant store nearby it, Pryfyn was directing several Imperial Navy Troopers in unloading of his equipment from several landspeeders. Picking up the large crates from the craft and dropping them onto hovering discs, the troopers filed each one into the now taken shop and deposited them. Once they had finished unloading the materials, tools, and furniture Pryfyn boarded onto one of the landspeeders and floated over to the apartment building. It was about damn time he finally got the required furnishings for a creature like him.

"But Tipper isn't a Commissar," she laughed.

She held out her hand to collect rain water in her palm and then followed Volturius across the street.

"This is a wet planet. Very wet!" she grumbled and rung out her hair. "Let's hope the food is worth it."

[Swith Witherward]

"You expect it to do anything else? What's that? Juice? We had juice?"

He leaned over and offered his bowl of popcorn.

Minerva raised her eyebrow. "Don't you look in the fridge? We've got all sorts of things in there."

She munched on some popcorn before leaning back on the couch. "Do you remember the old fridges? I had a GE with an internal ice box. Damn thing needed defrosting weekly, and it was just big enough to keep chipped ice in. How did we ever manage back then? Fresh eggs and butter kept in the cold room with the preserves and jarred goods. Meat, when we had it, was cooked that day and eaten the same. Milk... oh I used to love fresh milk before the War. I kept that. But once the war started, we'd lose power all the time, thanks to your people. I began to long for my old fridge which had that bin on top for the block of ice. You people made my milk go sour."

She winked at him to let him know she was teasing and then pushed off the couch again. "It's Time. I think I'll lie down a bit."

OOC: goodnight, and thanks Cer. I appreciate it.

[Tiltjuice]

"A dragon egg got in here somehow, and it's hatching."

The egg rested against the inside of the grate. Tapping could still be heard, and the muffled chirps coming from it indicated that whatever was inside wanted desperately to come out. It rolled a bit and trembled and then... PLOONK... down the shaft it went.

Dora heard it thunk at the bottom of the shaft.

"Uh oh...I hope nothing bad happened."

"Eh....okay."

Yoshi entered the restaurant behind Katya, after holding the door open for her.

Luce stood by the table, waiting for the couple.

[The BranRiech]

"Hey, turn off the TV, will ya'?" Rylli giggled from the couch as Bran returned from his little escapade. His hand was bandaged up and basically useless as one of his fingers had fallen off only minutes before. He complied and grabbed the remote, flicking the TV off, just weather reports and the like

"Rachelle's already gone to bed, come here." Rylli made a gesture to the couch. Her husband smiled warmly, warmer than anyone else had ever seen him, and sat down next to her. "My hand is injured." He said as he sprawled out, laying his head gently on her swollen belly. "You don't want to see it, trust me, I'll go and get it treated tomorrow, eh?" Bran suggested as he drew a blanket up to them.

"If you wish, we could go and get it now. I'll accompany you."

Bran nodded at this. He contemplated for a few moments and nodded tentatively. "S-Sure."

The two both got up, stretched out, and set off for Nevvie's place.

OOC: NVE, you can take control of Bran if you want to get him in treatment before I'm on.

--

Kei was still sprawled out next to Tieria, on the floor after fainting. She wasn't knocked out, but simply trying to get used to having that small a part of herself in a different place.

[Erucia]

"I'd say all of it....... I'd recommend leaving them at the doors of residents, so we know they will get them.... and some copies in the lobby just in case..."

"Then I guess I'll have to bang them onto people's doors when they sleep," Ray joked. "They shall squirm like a dieing bunneeyyy.... Of course, that is, if they're sensitive to noise when they sleep."

Nevvie was in Fortu's apartment, fixing Fortu's headless body up in the kitchen. "Oh, Good morning Bran! I'll get to you in a moment. Just replacing a few organs." Nevvie greeted. "Hello Bran! Good morning Rylli." Fortu's head said from the couch. He watched a Noir film titled 'See you Next Wednesday' on the TV.

OOC: I can wait.

[South Romagnia]

Katya looked to Yoshi as she took a seat at the table.

.....

Torii was still relaxing with Tsu.

.....

The Dunmer were still unsure of where they were. One of them ran up to a civilian.

"You!"
"Gah! What are-"
"Where are we, friend? What era? Which dynasty? Has Akivir invaded? Is this Akivir?"
"What? Th-this is Earth! 2013!"
"Earth? That's not an Elven name! What is this, some sort of man-dominated land?"

[Primordial Luxa]

Primordial feels the world suddenly decompress as he enters a new thread.

[Urran]

Yoshi sat next to Katya and smiled softly at her and Luce. he gripped his side and moaned softly. he would need to recover a bit more before walking long distances again.



Tieria woke up slowly and rolled over so that he was facing kei. he scooted into her and started sobbing softly

"Something the matter?" Luce enquired mildly, taking his own seat.

[New Aksarben]

"I'd say all of it....... I'd recommend leaving them at the doors of residents, so we know they will get them.... and some copies in the lobby just in case..."

"Then I guess I'll have to bang them onto people's doors when they sleep," Ray joked. "They shall squirm like a dieing bunneeyyy.... Of course, that is, if they're sensitive to noise when they sleep."

Albert chuckled. "You can be so silly sometimes, Ray...... So are we going to do that?"

---

Jacob shrugged. "Not much. We only spoke last like yesterday or something. The only thing I did really was read some books."

---

Octavian was sitting on the same couch as Fortu's head, and watching the movie as well. He gave a small wave to Bran and Rylli, but said nothing to them. "What is it like being only a head, Fortu?"

[AETEN II]

"Could be worse. I've heard some Deathworlds have acidic rain that can burn through admantanium. Not a pleasant place, even in ceramite armor." Volturius responded to Tipper's small complaints of the watery world while they entered 'Chaos'. A strange phrase to even think of, given that 'back at home', such a concept was both eagerly wished for and fearful of.

"Well, it can't be worse than rations."

"I feel small. But I've been just a head for half of my life." Fortu said.

"How are you even alive when you are just a head?" Octavian asked, curious.

"How are you even alive when you are just a head?" Octavian asked, curious.

"Mounted on a wall. I was a clone, so the biology is a bit complicated. When Neil finally rescued me from the wall he built a life support collar for me."

"Mounted on a wall. I was a clone, so the biology is a bit complicated. When Neil finally rescued me from the wall he built a life support collar for me."

"So you can live as long as your head remains intact?" Octavian questioned. "That is.... quite amazing..."
