X-Men: A Bright New World (OOC)

[Creotia]

Hey there Lachi! This looks interesting but it might take me a while to read through this unless someone could be a sweetheart and give me the quick summary since I'm sure most of this isn't particularly important, I just need to know what characters are taken.

 

[Lachiyous]

Miss "Creotia", please check page one of either the OOC or IC thread to see the roster posted therein. Hopefully that helps out

 

[Felix80]

Pm with profile sent. To you Lach.

Let me know what you think.

 

[DormantEvil]

Right, finally uploaded a pic of Wolfsbane. Hope it works.

 

[DeathsKnight]

If Felix is the same Felix that I have written with before I would second his choice

 

[Felix80]

Indeed Sir Deathsknight. I have ignobly returned.

 

[DeathsKnight]

It is started to freak me out.

I can remember names, but for the life of me I can't remember why.

But welcome back Felix and I hope we get to write together again

 

[Lachiyous]

He's also the same "Felix80" that this roleplay is based upon -- in fact we both were 'there' at the beginning in its infant, thought processing stages! -- which, is also unfortunately why I cannot accept him back.

He's a RL villain and is trying to *STEAL* it back dammit! NO. STAY AWAY. I've earned this right!!

*smirk*

House hunting today in just a little bit. So I'll get back here later to the pm(s) and for writing! Oh, and you know how much I love that pic Miss "DormantEvil" -- thanks for including it!

 

[DormantEvil]

No problem!

Took a little bit to find, but you ask and you shall receive. Within reason. But those reasons are far and wide.

 

[Felix80]

My character was approved. I will be playing Abraham Lincoln Kieros, aka War.

 

[Lachiyous]

Indeed he is, and you are. Welcome back once more, "Felix80"!

I'll have to say, after Miss "Creotia" joins(assuming she does) -- and possibly one other that I'm in talks with -- I'm going to close the door to recruitment for the time being, as we're getting up there in numbers!

I anticipate getting to write on the weekend next, to free up/introduce our new characters!


PS -- You're a doll, Miss "DormantEvil"!

 

[Creotia]

I think I'll be joining, sorry if i'm a little slow responding. Work has been really hectic the last couple of days. Usually I have lots of spare time but not right now. I think I should RP more. It's apparently good for business.

 

[Lachiyous]

Np, Miss "Creotia". Sent you a pm. Get back to me when you can. Thanks

Name: Abraham Lincoln Kieros
Alias: War
Age: 19
Height: 6'
Weight: 200lbs

Appearance: Caucasian male, brown hair with hazel eyes, Kieros is in great shape. When not in uniform he wears boots, jeans and a simple white t-shirt.

Powers: Kieros can amplify and control kinetic energy. A snap of his fingers he can turn into the equivalent of a grenade. Clapping his hands can knock over a skyscraper. Kieros can redirect and amplify all kinetic energy, turning someone's attack back upon them.

History: Abraham Kieros was the kid in school who never quite fit in. He was quiet, read a lot, kept in shape with martial arts and far to mentally mature for most of his classmates. He had too much common sense to get along with the athletes, too athletic to fit in with the nerds, too mainstream to fit with the geeks and too quiet to fit in with the popular kids. He thought school was a waste of time, because it wasn't challenging for him, and had no problem telling that to his teachers. Not that Kieros was a genius, but even an above average mind would be bored by public school.

He was in one fight, the first day of high school. He antagonized the biggest jock in school, the center for the varsity football team and waited for the jock to throw the first punch before he knocked the jock out. Most of his classmates didn't get him, and considered Kieros to be the most likely to flip out and kill people.

Keiros considered The Art of War recreational reading, as well as Rommel and the Prussian generals that came before him. He spoke of OODA loops and maneuver warfare, and played a mean game of chess. He got his high school diploma at the end of his junior year and enlisted in the Marines, become a parachute and diving qualified reconnaissance man. He made sergeant before he turned 19. His fellow marines get along with Kieros just fine. In the corps he found a place he fit.

Kieros was on a mission in Qurac when his powers manifested. Bialya had invaded Qurac and the US was part of a UN coalition to take the country back. Kieros' recon team was behind enemy lines when an allied artillery barrage hit his unit. Kieros powers kicked in and he redirected the kinetic energy of the shells that hit him toward the enemy tank base they were scouting, destroying a number of tanks in the process. The rest of his unit died in the barrage.

Abraham Kieros told the truth in the resulting investigation. The marines thought he was crazy. After far too many psyche evals that all pronounced him normal, the Marines made a few inquiries up the chain of command to find out what to do with Kieros. Luckily, one of Xavier's contacts in the government was asked to look into the matter and Abraham Kieros found himself shipped to the Groton sub base in CT with a bus ticket to Westchester, NY and orders to report to Xavier as a consulting expert.

Apologies for the delay in writing folks. We have been fiercely house hunting over the weekend. And put in a serious offer on a home. So...we're hectically awaiting response....


Speaking of which, "Felix80". I'm anticipating more to your IC post there than the one address link?

 

[Felix80]

It's coming, keep your pants on. Unless you're in a side thread!

 

[Lachiyous]

Good one

So, I'll try today after work. To get Rahne and Hijack involved so they can play too...plenty of room for trouble in this sandbox!

 

[DormantEvil]

I'll be back online in nine hours, sleepy time for me!

But you can count on a post the moment I'm right to put one up...let me at em!

 

[Lachiyous]

Okay, all players are "in" so to speak! Wolvie's party, I'm assuming you don't mind that I had you text Hijack with the 'invite'! (maybe it was even Jamie again, like before!)

 

[Lachiyous]

EDIT: Oops! Left out an important part for your character Miss "DormantEvil". Fixed!

 

[DormantEvil]

Cheers! Love free stuff.

 

[Drakkwall]

I have posted, as to fit my character's power, hobby and likes I have put him in a room above the garage, the loft if possible, hope that's okay.

 

[Drakkwall]

Just out of curiosity, am I to go to New York to meet up with Logan or am I to travel to Russia with Wolfbane cause there's no other new blood in the mansion from what I can tell. Cause with the message of us travelling together did I get a kind of mixed message.

 

[DormantEvil]

I just assumed we'd been split into two groups. Russian group and Logan's group. That Rahne is going to sniff out where the group is, and David is there to aid Logan on home soil. But, if the bar is on the way to the airport, perhaps they can ride together and Rahne can briefly update that she's been sent to Russia and ask Logan if he has any idea why.

Is there any reason why the mansion is empty? I probably missed that and haven't caught up reading yet.

 

[Lachiyous]

Haven't gotten a chance to read your posts yet. But I was definitely being...ambiguous...in my narrative, as I tend to

Two different groups/objectives for sure!

The mansion is empty because everyone/most are OUT(Group 1 is in Russia, Group 2 in the City, the Professor 'away', and other miscellenaous individuals gone as well...)

That's a fine location for your character "Drakkwall"!(oh, and your character is going with Wolvie's!)

I would say maybe you can both travel in the same direction for a lil' bit...as the Group 2 is North and the Airport is further so...
