I wonder if sentient Captcha has something to do with it...Daft Sikes said:
CAPTCHA: learn from mistakes
I realized my prolouge is only working if the events of preview #1 have already happend when the RP starts, meaning it has to be November 2025 for my prolouge to make sense.
I haven't written part 3 (which contains the fissure and lots of dead people) yet, and I can easily change the rest if it's not November, so....
(I hope you get what I am talking about)
The problem is I'm on vacation when the RP starts (3rd to 11th of August).
The plan was to write it, send it to LA to check if it's lore-friendly and then ask him (or sb else) to post it for me.
I think I'll just write 2 different versions of part 3 (Version a: Fissure / Version b: Destroyer Cult).

Hey Ascendant, question. What exactly would be the upper limits of Thaumaturgy exactly? I get Hell Magic and all the classics like spitting hellfire from your hands, but really, what are it's limits? Or more specifically, what can it NOT do?Lord_Ascendant said:
Also, may we be able to get a say in our opening post? I have nothing in mind really, but it'd be nice to know the option is there.
They can't become demons or literally summon demons but if they have a bit of hair they can rip your heart out a hundred miles away.Darth Caelum said:
Just a tip to daft skies(on a smart phone so I'm doing this the lazy way) and to anyone I guess. Never be afraid to start with a small amount of info on a character. What matters is that you have at least some consistency when developing him/her. Would they make the same decision twice? Would their personailty, character, etc be affected a lot or a little by story event's. Also don't be afraid to have them make mistakes, it can make for more interesting characters. Lastly, keep interactions with other characters intentional and tasteful. None of us are playing superman, they will need to depend on one another. (So for instance, will the character you play have an easy tine with trust or will they need to develop it over time etc.
Okay, done with my schpeel

Hmm. I see. So blood and hair right? Does it have to be their blood and hair to have an offensive effect on them or can it be any?Lord_Ascendant said:
Also, I'm gonna be posting my own little character snippets later today, so there's that.
Dear Director,
Im concerned for both of them, one being a powerful weapon with more lethality than anything made by man, one that could potentially make the Atom Bomb appear to be child's play. and the other being the only one the former will trust. So yes, I am concerned for both. Maybe you should try to at least act as though you are.
I would like to remind you that we are slowly being pushed further and further out of our boundaries. I dont have time for your personal feelings, the feelings between Sigma and Dragon, or petty departmental differences. This is bigger than both of us and bigger than both of them. Get it through to your head Director, I am not here to bicker. Now, tell me the current status of Subjects Sigma and Rising Dragon.
The Praetor of internal investigations.

Alexander Sinclair File
Incident 14-20
The first known recorded instance of Sinclair returning to the UK is also one of his most unsolicited and vicious attacks against the Guardians. Knowledge of the event is scarce, as Sinclair had hid his tracks well after the event, with the rest on a need to know basis, but the most important thing is that after Sinclair revisited London again, his last master was dead.
By December 15, 2020, Master Erlandur had devoted a significant amount of his time to learning as to why his student had betrayed us, as well as chart out how Sinclair operated. This research would result in several near captures by Guardian operatives both before, and after, he was inducted into the Thaumaturgy. As such, it was only natural that he would eventually come after Erlandur who at the time was living in the Avalon Complex, which at the time was disguised as a clothier shop.
From what we have pieced together, Sinclair?s initial action was to fire several explosive rounds from his AW50 into the floor that Erlandur was known to live in at 4 am. The first was in his bedroom, the second in his study, and the third in the water closet. Each round was supercharged with Hellfire, meaning that they all exploded with the force of a superheavy artillery round, spreading hellfire all over whatever still stood, as well as passing through an adjacent wall, because it?s an anti-material rifle after all. After that, he somehow organized, possibly through Imperiomancy, the coordinated crashes of 3 gasoline tankers into the Complex, igniting the fuel and burning everything inside. Finally, Sinclair activated an Thaumaturgist ritual across the entire block that trapped anyone inside, at which point he began firing round after round into the ravaged Avalon Complex and, after that, into the foundations of every other building within the killzone until Guardian operatives arrived at the scene.
Over 81 operatives, and several hundred citizens were killed by Sinclair?s assault, but Master Erlandur himself survived, through over half his body was covered in burns, with the other half crushed by the debris of falling concrete. As it turned out, the ravage assault proved necessary, as Master Erlandur managed to escape the Complex as it burned, and was trapped when the Thaumaturgist began firing into the buildings.
Unfortunately, upon Master Erlandur?s confinement into a hospital, Sinclair managed to somehow infiltrate the hospital through the virtue of blowing Erlandur?s portion of the hospital with his AM50. However, Erlandur himself did not die from that. When his body was recovered, it was noted that a large portion of his hair was ripped off, and that his entire chest had caved into his heart and left him to die. Thus, it was likely that Sinclair had, after closing in, killed Erlandur face to face with Thaumaturgy, though also judging from the fact that Sinclair?s blood was also discovered on the scene, Erlandur managed to react strongly enough with his Imperiomancy as a retaliation as well.
It is noted however, that after Erlandur?s death and the admitted ability to do more damage to the Guardians, that Sinclair would not seek the uncontracted deaths of any more of the Guardians.

So I will ask again for anybody just recently accepted, name one or two songs that aptly describe your character.
