[SIZE=1]Jamie sat on the queen-sized bed in the double room. A room for two. One bed, one sofa, one bathroom. She was nervous as hell. She was at least hoping to have seen Trevor at the airport, after all, it was the first time they had ever met and suddenly they were sharing a bed. Jamie's stomach done a somersault and she groaned, placing a hand on her abdomen. Sighing deeply she went about the task of ordering a bottle of rosé wine from room service before un packing her clothes and other such things. Eventually, after the radios task of sock packing was completed, a knock sounded at Jamie?s door. She opened it to be greeted by a man with wine. She smiled, asked him to put the bill on her tab, and took the wine in. She considered a glass but decided against it, unscrewing the metal cap of the wine bottle and downing a quarter of it in five short gulps. She swayed slightly and sat back down on the bed, feeling a hot flush cross her cheeks. Giggling softly, she brushed some red hair from her eyes and set the bottle down on her bedside cabinet. Another sigh, and the young woman decided unpacking the rest of her things could wait. Right now, it was a bath she needed...if she could find the feeling in her legs to move properly. [B]"This is why you shouldn't drink wine, Jamie."[/B] she grumbled before flopping to one side on the bed, dozing off shortly afterwards. [B]OOC ^_^;; I've done that before, as Trevor will know, I was on the phone to him an hour later. XD *not an alcoholic*[/B][/SIZE]

[SIZE=1]Guys, I think we're moving way too fast. Trevor asked if we could make it so his flight was delayed and now someone's thrown him into the RP. His internet is still acting up but he'll catch up when he has the chance. I really don't think we should be at the party yet, half of the people haven't even arrived. Can we slow this down just a tad?[/SIZE]

[SIZE=1]The reason the Battle Arena was taken away in the first place is because it was, frankly, a spam fest. You can now make quality spars and tournaments in the Adventure Inn, as Blackjack said, and I think it's helped improve the quality of the Arena exponentially, which is what James was hoping for in the first place. Really, the Battle Arena let the massively high quality of the Adventure Square (Ah, the old days) down, I think we should keep it as is.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=1]Jamie smiled broadly as Steph started to sob happily, some tears dripping onto the redhead's shoulder. She cursed her height sometimes--made her feel like such a kid. Looking around, Jamie saw more moist eyes, wide smiles, and toothy grins. She sighed--Trevor wasn't here yet. [I]'His flight must have been delayed...'[/I] her heart sank and she hung her head, plopping onto a plush chair just as the Tokyo flight arrived. Lady Dust, Natsu, flew into Steph and Jacob's open arms, a giddy smile on her face. Jamie merely nodded to her-she and Lady Dust had had their....disagreements. Looking around, Jamie noticed that everyone was talking quite freely to one another, getting on perfectly well. It was nice, she thought, but couldn't help feel guilty as her heart sank deeper with each passing minute. She stood up and went to the arrivals board, noticing that the flight from Seattle had indeed been delayed. It set her mind at ease that it was only a delay keeping Trevor from arriving. Looking over at the rest of the group, the Brit pulled in a deep breath and put on her best smile. [B]"If you guys want to go on ahead, feel free, I'm going to wait until Trevor arrives."[/B] She nibbled the side of her cheek, something she always did to keep herself from crying. That nervous smile broke onto her face again and she resigned herself to hugging Sean tightly, hiding her anxious tears from everyone else by burying her face in his chest. He sighed and hugged back, stroking her hair gently. Steph clucked her tongue and walked over. [B]"Gah,"[/B] Jamie blurted out, laughing between her tears, [B]"Aren't I just the worst at this kind of thing?"[/B] [B]OOC You know, that would be my [I]exact[/I] reaction. *Is currently waiting for Trevor to get online*[/B][/SIZE]

[SIZE=1][B]Name:[/B] Bethany Nicola Sweetness Archer (Sometimes referred to as 'Beth' or 'Sweetness'.) [B]Age:[/B] 14 [B]Gender:[/B] Female [B]Species:[/B] Human [B]Appearance:[/B] Please refer yourselves to the attachment--Thank you! [B]Talents:[/B] Fast (but sometimes horrific) violin playing-also makes great use of the synthesizers. Very hyper and fast, good for escape strategies. Uses Plantilogical Manifestation to the extreme, also has the ability to morph herself into a rather large flower. With eyes. Yes. [B]Personality:[/B] Beth is, for lack of a better word, eccentric. She is totally crazy, knows it, and flaunts it to the best of her ability. She is also paranoid to the highest extreme and takes great pleasure is being two steps a head of everyone...just in case. She can be annoying but, as her name suggests, is a very sweet girl when she really tries. She has this annoying tendency to attach herself to one person, moving on from them when they get boring just to idolize another unfortunate victim. Usually on the happy side, Beth fights for her own warped sense of justice.... which is basically just saving her own skin. And some flowers, if they need saving... [B]Bio:[/B] Beth, born to a nice family with genuinely decent parents, was brought up in gardens and was always taught to respect nature. She had a fascination with music and flowers since she was just a babe and was taught all the different kinds of plants that one child could absorb. She was a natural with the keyboard and piano and soon turned her interests to violin.... which wasn't a very good idea, as it turned out. She now lives by herself, since her parents feel it is for the best, and owns a rather large nursery in town, which people frequent all year round to enjoy the beautiful plant life that Beth has cultivated. She doesn't care much for people and is perfectly happy to spend all of her time in the garden, watering and talking to her plants. She is an eager girl that is wise far past her years and appearance, even though she acts like a real little kid at times. [B]Done.[/B][/SIZE]

[COLOR=#FF0055][SIZE=1]I salute you, Anarchy, as you pegged me pretty damn well. The words in the banner/avi are from a song, but the only reason I like that song is for the lyrics...guess it balances out, no? So, yes, Anarchy congrats because I am not conformist in any sense of the word, I'm glad you could notice that from my silly little graphic. ^_^ I'm actually not sere what to say about you, since I don't know the guy you have in your banner and the word 'Freeze' means nothing to me because of that. I'm very sorry. u_u *ph41l3d*[/SIZE][/COLOR]

[SIZE=1][B]OOC: Sesh, this is an [B]Invite Only.[/B] Therefore, you cannot participate.[/B] [B]I know Sean hasn't posted yet. *cough* I'll include him in my post anyway, I'm sure he won't mind.[/B] [COLOR=#FF0055]It had taken one hour for Jamie to get to Heathrow Airport from JL Liverpool. Thank the Lord there hadn't been any delays. She was already shaking from excitement and the thought that a long, long flight ahead was all that was separating her from Trevor was, well, maddening. She tapped her knees as she listened to Will Smith's 'Switch', a song she had been obsessed with for a good long while. [I]'The classics never die'[/I] she thought, smiling gently. The redhead glanced up at the flight arrivals and saw the one she had been waiting for from Scotland. She grinned as she heard a shout from the Arrivals gate, [B]"Jim Jam!"[/B] she quickly noticed her old friend Sean jogging towards her, case wheeling behind him quickly. It had been a few years since they'd seen each other--always they made plans that never planned out. Shame, really. Jamie stood up and caught Sean in a quick hug, glancing at her watch.[B] "C'mon, our next flight leaves in forty minutes, let's get going."[/B] Sean nodded and the two made their way to the Departures section of the airport, Jamie checking her watch occasionally as she went. The Airport was hot. Far too hot, in Sean's opinion and twice he suggested stripping for extra holiday money. Jamie reminded him that she was not afraid to use brute force, if need be. Eventually they were all boarded, settled and ready for the long flight ahead of them. Both knew that they would be one of the last people to arrive, seeing as most of the people invited were American. Jamie sighed and settled back, slipping her headphones back on as she tried to ignore Sean's inane rambling.[/COLOR] [B]OOC: I think it would be better for us to arrive after the rest of the American's. ^_^; Oh, and if this ever did happen, Sean and I will have met. *cheers* Going to Scotland to see him this summer.[/B][/SIZE]

[COLOR=#FF0055][SIZE=1]I'm closing sign ups tomorrow, then Unborn Lord Xion and I will be discussing who's in and who's out on Saturday, that's when I'll start it. ^_^ I think ULX will be in charge of choosing Vampires, I'll do the Eliminators.

[COLOR=#FF0055][SIZE=1]I have to say that Kuja and Zidane are my all time favourite couple, [SPOILER]even if it would be classed as incest, I guess...[/SPOILER] Also

[COLOR=#FF0055][SIZE=1]Be prepared for silliness, because Baron deserves it. From the fact that your avatar and banner both show spilt paint, this may reflect that you have attempted art and failed miserably and therefore threw your media all over the place, showing you have a lot of built up tension and very little patience. It of course could also show that you like the disorganised look in art, which may reflect on you as a person being more laid back and away from the general crowd. The fact that you quoted Alan makes you totally awesome. I also know for a fact that you are Australian, which makes you even better. Your custom title is Exotica; I think this further shows what I mentioned before about being different from the masses. Rock on, mate. (Unless it stands for ?Exotic Dancer?. If this is the case, I?m both worried and intrigued, ^_~)[/SIZE][/COLOR]

[SIZE=1][CENTER][COLOR=Red][B]Warning-This RP will contain scenes of gore right from the start, hence the 'V' rating. Also, considering one particular member who will be in this, there is the rating for Language. Also, the S is there for a precaution, if you feel it fits in with the story; feel free to take complete advantage.[/B][/COLOR] [COLOR=Silver][B][U]By Moonlight[/U][/B] A dark night, the air humid and rank with the smell of rotting flesh. A hunched over shape is silhouetted by the dim moonlight as it shovels handfuls of decaying flesh into it?s open mouth. The only light other than that of the moon is a small glow at the end of a man?s cigarette. He looks no more than 25, though his years surpass most others. He is a vampire, a child of the night?a pest. The cigarette flickers out as the vampire crushes it in his hand, ignoring the burning in his pale palm. He looks at the quivering shape, still hunched over the dead body even though it is very much aware of the monster?s presence. The creature slowly turns it?s bald head, it?s large yellow eyes staring open in shock and fear as the sleek blade of an ancient katana cleaves it?s head in twain. A grunt escapes the vampire?s lips and he wrenches out the blade, it?s bright silver marred by small rivulets of black blood, dripping slowly from the tip. He turns his head and flicks back the long strands of silver hair he is known for and stares into the distance, a small smirk crossing his face. [B]?Eliminator?so good to finally see you.?[/B] As he finishes the sentence a silver arrow skims his face, cutting a few strands of delicate hair. He scowls and wipes his katana in the fur of the creature he has just killed, sighing at the waste of a good body. Again he turns his gaze to the distance, now seeing the horse he knew would have arrived. On the horse sits a young woman, her bow poised for another shot. The black stallion beneath her stands perfectly still, its eerie blue eyes staring intently at the forest ahead. A means of escape, should one be needed. He connects with his mistress, the deep sound of his inner voice echoing in her head, [I][B](He is fast this one; you do not want to underestimate him)[/B][/I] The woman does not turn her gaze from the stationary vampire and she only nods, drawing back her hand for another shot. The vampire opens his mouth and laughs, dodging as the second arrow misses him completely. He runs forward, leather trench coat billowing out behind him as he reaches inhuman speeds, pulling his arm out in a wide arc, ready to strike the stallion?s legs. The young woman gasps and her stead raises himself to his hind legs before bolting for the forest, narrowly escaping the vampire?s attack. The woman grips her partners mane as he gallops deeper between the trees, only stopping ten minutes later when they reach a river. [B]?So that was him?he?s finally arrived here in England??[/B] Her stallion bows his dark head in a nod, tapping the telepathic link between he and his mistress once again. [I][B](Indeed, Beth?Kuroichi has arrived.)[/B][/I][/COLOR] ***[/CENTER] Okay, first let me explain a few things. This is (obviously) a vamp RPG, I thought it was about time I started one. It is based in England with one of the most powerful vampires having arrived, his name--Kuroichi, the Silver Haired Demon. Basically, this is far, far into the future where technology, alchemy and inner magic are used to their full extent. Telepathy has been practiced greatly and now all children and certain animals (list to follow) are born with the ability. Some, of course, are better than others as with most things. Not all humans can use magic; you decide whether you want to or not (but I don?t want everyone using it). Think of Star Wars for what the cities are like, even though there are large areas of forest and greenery still,.Britain is very well known for it?s beautiful landscape and how they have managed to blend in the cities with the surrounding vegetation. Vampires re-emerged 200 years ago but instead of trying to mix with society, over the years they have formed underground gangs and have terrorized humans, killing them for the sheer bloodlust. There are now only precious few vampires left and it?s up to hunters known as the ?Eliminators? to travel the world and wipe them out. Since there are so few Vampires they are all extremely powerful and even the most experienced and well-trained Eliminator will not be able to bring one down by themselves. Kuroichi [COLOR=Red](reserved exclusively for Unborn Lord Xion, because he would kill me dead otherwise)[/COLOR] is the most powerful and comes from Japan. No one knows exactly how old he is or even to what extent his power reaches, they just know that he could kill millions if he wanted to?and do it by himself. Beth [COLOR=Red](played by yours truly)[/COLOR] is an Eliminator who has only just come out of training and is a bit too cocky for her own good. She has earned herself a worldwide reputation for bringing down a vampire while she was still in training and her master had been brought down. To this day she does not remember what happened, all she knows is that she heard her master?s cries for help, all that remains of that memory afterwards is black. Two of the top Eliminators have heard of Kuroichi?s arrival in England, they also know he is on the hunt for one Beth Archer and they have made haste in starting their journey. One is from America and the other is from Asia (doesn?t have to be Japan) and both are highly skilled, known for killing many Vampires. I?d like six people tops in this RP and two places are already taken, so four more to sign up and I?ll be happy. Two more Vampires and two more Eliminators is what I need, thank you kindly. If all the places are taken before Friday, feel free to try out for one of the spots, I?ll pick whom I think is best. That?s it, I believe, any questions go to my Inbox, I may start an underground thread when the RP starts but I doubt we?ll need it. Oh, please, no making your characters all-powerful. I?d like them to be at least a little realistic. The only person who can go truly crazy is ULX, because Kuroichi is badass and I?m not even sure if we?re all going to survive this RP against him. I?ll decide as we go along. (Please note, the Vampires don?t have to side with Kuroichi--in fact it will be better if they are against him. More diversity, you see) [RIGHT][U][B]Sign Up:[/B][/U] [B]Name-[/B] (Humans, stick to your nationality, Vampires?whatever) [B]Age-[/B] (Humans 24+, Vampires?again?whatever, please add the age they look as humans) [B]Alliance- [/B] (Eliminator or Vampire) [B]Appearance-[/B] (Humans can choose whatever they want but I?d love it if you made your character look like a fighter of some sort, you know, interesting. Vampires I?d like to look gothic, unless you think of a better idea) Picture or good description. [B]Weapons-[/B] (This may be tricky. Since we are in the future, your weapons can be pretty much anything. Please keep in mind though that vampires are still weak against your traditional silver and stake and cross, if you think of how to incorporate those into modern weapons then go right ahead. [B]NB:[/B] Beth has the bow and arrow-[B]no touchy[/B] (I want a range of weapons)) [B]Extra- [/B] (This can be extra items etc. even put your mode of transport here, max 6. (excluding transport) [B]NB:[/B] Beth has a horsey- again, [B]no touchy[/B]) [B]Personality-[/B] (You know the drill) [B]Fighting Style-[/B] (Magic, hand to hand etc. If magic, state your spells (max three, keep it basic--this also applies to Vampires)) [B]Character Snippet-[/B] [COLOR=Red][B]I WILL ONLY START THE RP IF ALL OF THESE ARE DONE![/B] [/COLOR] *cough* So please, don?t be a lazy bum. =)[/RIGHT] [U]As far as telepathic animals go, the list is as follows-[/U] ?Any forest dwelling animal ?Birds of any kind ?Wolves ?Horses ?Cats Also, there be creepy beasts in England because of the thick forest. These creatures are said to be a mix between Vampire and wolves. So watch out and feel free to add them in whenever you want. (If anyone can think of a name, I?d appreciate that, too) ^_^;[/SIZE]

[COLOR=#FF0055][SIZE=1]*dies* He looks so gorgeous in that picture. Major Tom Felton fangirl right here! The thing that appeals to me most about this banner (aside from his picture) is the writing you used. I'm not sure why. I think it just totally suits him and the look of the banner and the elegance of it matches Slytherin. But that's obviously the look you were going for. That green cross....thing (XD) is also very cool, I've yet to figure out how to do that. Silly me. Overall, very lovely. Two thumbs up. I agree with Delta, he [I]does[/I] look like the drummer from SoR.[/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=#FF0055][SIZE=1]My friend and I tried to organise a gnome kidnap scheme when I was in South Africa. We were going to hold them for ransom. That plan didn't really pan out >>; But onto the topic. I always get paranoid when I'm home alone, but that does come from living in SA for a long time. Someone tried to break into our house when we lived there, I was only around five at the time but I remember it well. My dad heard someone at the bars on the window so he got up and they lobbed a brick right through the glass. Luckily, the burglar bars kept them out but it was really frightening. When we had the police round they found huge metal clippers on the burglar bars. That's when we got a dog. A big one.[/SIZE][/COLOR]

[SIZE=1][quote name='Lady Dust']What war is? Tell me your definition of war. Because I am pretty sure it is not on the same level as mine bucko. War isn't where the littelst elf comes out and hops around and gets shot and gets a miraculous recovery. Oh no, for those of you havn't even war on your own land I suggest you stop talking about war right now.[/quote] [COLOR=#FF0055]Pshaw, deary, almost every country has had war so you ain't excluding many people here. Now I'm not taking sides, as I am from Britain and have no real right to, but the Japanese were heartless, killed many of our allies in WWII and even their own soldiers. Before I say any more I would like to kindly point out that I am a History student and have been studying the World Wars for three years, so please, don't tell me I don't know my facts. The Japanese were skilful, I'll give them that, but they really didn't make many friends when it came to the wars. I think anyone who trains their army to kill themselves rather than be captured has something the matter with their tactics. I know it's tradition, it's honour and I understand that fact, but in those times I believe that should have moved on from that. Anyway, to my point. I think that you asking to give a 'definition of war' is silly because everyone has experienced it. Hell, we're experiencing it now, aren't we? And for the love of God, don't ever use that 'littlest elf' thing ever again. It's shameful[/COLOR].[/SIZE]

[COLOR=#FF0055][SIZE=1]Oh my gee, I love your style >> (

[COLOR=#FF005D][SIZE=1][B]"Gah...bloody English weather."[/B] needless to say, the day had dawned less than pleasant in England, and Jamie was not a happy camper. She had gone through work yesterday with no idea of what anyone was saying to her. The very thought that she would soon be flying out to Texas to see everyone, including Trevor, was making her feel quite dizzy with excitement. Natalie was happy for her, of course, seeing as she had offered on more than one occasion to go to America with Jamie. But no, the redhead wanted to study. Bad mistake. So now she packed her things, annoyed that she would have to wear a thick coat and jeans to the airport when Texas was probably boiling hot. She sighed again and got out her mobile, scrolling down to 'Sean'. She called and the phone rang twice, Sean picked up with the third ring. [B]"Yo, Jim Jam!" "You already left or am I going to have to miss my flight because of you?" "No worries, I'm on time, I'll see you there." "Yup."[/B] Jamie closed the phone over and tossed it into her black leather shoulder bag, something she'd had since she was fifteen. She loved that bag, even if it was looking a little on the worn side by now. After re-checking her list for the third time and packing all the little things she'd forgotten the first time around, Jamie smiled and closed her case, happy to find that it wasn't too heavy. [B]"You've got everything?"[/B] God forbid, Natalie sounded worried. [B]"Yes, Natalie, I'll be fine. Don't worry about it."[/B] a small smirk crept onto Jamie's lips, [B]"Besides with Trevor there I won't be wearing clothes most of the time..."[/B] With a small laugh Jamie managed to dodge one of Natalie half-hearted attacks and jumped past her, landing in the large corridor. She sighed and dropped her case, wrapping her scarf around her tighter.[B] "Seriously though, I'll call when I get to Texas and again when I get to the hotel, okay?"[/B] Natalie nodded and smiled before hugging her best friend. Jamie returned it and patted the smaller girls back. [B]"You get back to bed, ne, Nat-chan?" "Don't call me Nat-chan."[/B] Jamie laughed again and waved before stepped out of the door to their apartment. She flipped her keys in her hand, the same way she always did when she was nervous, and headed to the elevator. Five minutes later she was on the road and heading the John Lennon Airport for her connection to Heathrow, the sounds of Eve 6 acting as the background in her Peugeot 206cc. Maybe she'd finally get a tan. [B]OOC I meant to talk to Sean about us flying together last night, but I'm sure it'll be fine with him. What you say we fly from Heathrow, my dear?[/B][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=#FF3399][SIZE=1]With regards to Havokio's comment, I am indeed, a girl and I am not (very) insane. Delacroix is the surname of Victor Delacroix, the main bad-guy from Chaos Legion (awesome game). It's not Dante in the banner, it's Victor, but now you mention it the two are very alike. Badass? Cool? Me? I think so. ^_~[/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=#FF3399][SIZE=1]Thanks everyone for your comments, I really appreciate it. Yeah, that Matt picture was a beyotch to work with, it was a lovely shot of him but I messed up when I tried to adjust the colour, I'll have to fix that. I'm leaving the backgrounds the way they are as the pixel/sharp effect is exactly what I wanted for them. Also, I'm keeping the font the same. Since it's going to be a big set all of the fonts are going to be the same. Again, thanks for the comments; I'm having a crack at Kou-chan's banner tonight. Oh, and Mistress, Jyou?s colour is indeed grey ^_^ Also, thanks Retri for changing those banners. I think I know what I did wrong. I made it so the background was indeed transparent, but then I went and added the border in Paint >.< That could be why so I'll go back and re-save them as .gif files.[/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=#FF3399][SIZE=1]I like the idea you had for these, but there are a few things I'd like to point out (if I may be so bold). Avatar- I like the text and the picture, but only because I know Hellsing and it's characters can I tell that it's Alucard in the background with one of his guns. It would have been good if you used a pixel font and made ?Hellsing? smaller in the corner so the avatar focussed on the picture. Banner- Again, I like the writing and the cross that you used but it looks off centre. Also, the picture looks a bit squished. Cropped would have been good with that. Also, I think both of them need a one pixel thick black border to finish them off but that may just be my opinion. Like I say, I like the ideas for the set, just a bit of tweaking could make them look that much better. ^_^[/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=#FF3399][SIZE=1]When it comes to writing under time, I freak but tend to do pretty okay with it. I'm lucky when it comes to writing in the sense that I find it impossible to plan so all of my stuff is written without any clear idea of where I'm going and doesn't need much editing. When I had to write for my school exams I found myself almost running out of paper and not to mention time, that's where I get a problem. I get a really good story going and all the ideas are flowing when I suddenly have to cut it short which usually brings it to a very bad ending. I don?t usually like writing essays at home or in school, really. I think it's because in an exam I know I don?t' have a choice so I get on with it, when I have to do things at home my hours are more flexible and I slack off. My hand writing is terrible when I write freehand, too, it gets all spidery and ick, I'm surprised anyone can read it.[/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=#FF3399][SIZE=1]Hah, Raid3r, that was a truly stupid thing to say. No one anywhere has any right at all to insult people like that, this thread if for discussing what people think of and believe in and if you're aren't mature enough to come in and have an adult conversation then what's the point in reading through in the first place? Plus, I'd love for you to show me a cereal box that says, [B]"Through the adversity and hardship I fight, with only bitter tears and cold determination."[/B] (Chose your quote, Retri, 'cause I

[COLOR=#FF3399][SIZE=1]World Domination would be wonderful if I had an idea of what exactly I would do with the world when I had it. Basically, I've thought a lot about what I'd do with a whole heap of money, maybe I think too much. I forgot to mention, I would buy (or kidnap) Asian Kung-Fu Generation 'cause those guys just rock my socks. Ah, if only, eh?[/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=#FF3399][SIZE=1]Haha, I hope anyone in politics isn't reading this thread, Mr. Dante. Tony Blair isn't that bad, like I said I don't trust him and there are a few things he's done (like, say, a war) that I don't think he should have. He isn't an idiot, at least he doesn't seem like one and he isn't currently running our dear country into the ground (not fast, anyway). Given time, he may do just that, but if Labour comes in for another five years they may just surprise us. We can only hope, after all.[/SIZE][/COLOR]
