(( Noon. Yay! I'm assuming that means get away from the bakery time ))
Neil sweeps the bakery floor, looking around very suspiciously. He's nervous, but on the surface he's calm and ready. The shopkeeper is in the kitchen. Okay. That give me enough time to sneak out, He thinks, putting the broom down to the side. He creeps towards the exit, taking long, slow, quiet footsteps. A metre from the door, Neil yells, "Good work today, Demon Lady! I'll see you tomorrow!" With that he sprints out the door and down the street laughing.
"How... unfortunate. So... how did the ETG treat you during captivity? I mean, they treated me horribly, but I want to know how they treated you," I said.
Zoey looks away and thinks about what she'd say before saying quietly, "for me, well...I had some pretty sick guards assigned to me and I'm a girl... So basically, I... Just guess... Uh, sometimes they'd just come in and I'd have a couple hours of them beating or cutting me, I'd sometimes have to listen to Jessica in her sessions as they called them." Zoey turns Jessica visible all the way and shrugs. "They would sometimes inject me with stuff to see how I'd react, once they put me in a chamber of poison and almost killed me to see if I could turn invisible while being poisoned or in a cloud of the stuff." Jessica doesn't say anything as she listens and gives no sign to have had heard, not wanting to have to say anything if she wasn't addressed directly.
((Oh thats right. Accepted, since mastery of a sword has inherent strengths and weaknesses. I assume she'll get tired at the rate of a novice swordwielder.))
[Liam]"I doubt it. The plant's effects probably don't go beyond the City. We don't want the crew to be impaired anyways, since they're just delivering prisoners then leaving.
((Hm... hard to say... she's known her power existed since she was ten, and she's been honing her skills since then. Then again, it's not like her skills needed much more honing in the first place. I'll leave the decision up to you, but I don't think she would lose energy like that.))
I looked at her in absolute horror. "WHAT?!" I shouted, losing my temper quite a bit. I then slowly calmed down. "Sorry for raising my voice like that. It's just... that is... despicable! Unforgivable! That is... inhuman. The ETG are animals. Beasts. They have no regard for life. None at all. Me? They beat me with a whip until I was pretty much numb from pain... after the pain had settled down, they did tests on me... I'll never forget what happened to me. I'm... sorry I asked," I said remorsefully.

((Aaaaand nope Liam's name has not been said once within audible range of my character. And quick reminder David is wearing a full gas mask)) David arrives at the bakery and immediately spots Liam,” Ahh there you are, I hope you didn’t mind my leaving last night, my power is a bit lacking when it comes to defending myself from dragons”
((Hm... hard to say... she's known her power existed since she was ten, and she's been honing her skills since then. Then again, it's not like her skills needed much more honing in the first place. I'll leave the decision up to you, but I don't think she would lose energy like that.))
((well i mean her body doesn't change to that of a master swordwielder, its what it normally is))
[Liam](Upon seeing a gas mask wearing figure enter the bakery and directly adress him)
"Gahh! Oh wait it's you. Hello again!" Liam waves. "I'm Liam, I don't think I ever got a chance to tell you that, since we got interrupted, haha." I glance over at Silvira.
she leans back, looking at the newcomer with obvious amusement. "strangely enough, that dragon you're talking about happens to be right here. sorry about last night. my name's Silvira." she chuckles. "i'm a shapeshifter."
((*wants to rip hair out*))
((*growls with frustration*))
((right after i said that, i found three possibilities for Stephen. MURPHY I HATE YOU))

<Parsee>
It's night.
You hold Jake on a leash. He was still mumbling incoherent things to himself more than anything. His voice was lifeless. You hate seeing him like this. It doesn't help that he was idly trying to nibble on your arm.
[Valen] "How much further?"
[Iradia] "Just a bit longer and we'll be there."
It's dark.
As you walk through the shadowy forest at such a time, you start to notice things... Pixies flitting away, small animals running. The rest notice it too.
[Aaron] "Oh... Oh dear..."
[Xzyckxse] "Shall I aggress?"
[Valen] "What's going on?"
[Aaron] "Megatherium."
[Valen] "What now?"
[Xzyckxse] "Megatherium was a genus of elephant-sized ground sloths endemic to Central and South America that lived from the late Pliocene through the end of the Pleistocene. Its size was exceeded by only a few other land mammals, including mammoths and Paraceratherium."
[Shou] "I GOT THIS ONE!"
Shou steps forward and starts ripping the space around her, readying the shreds.
Suddenly, from behind the trees, a looming figure comes crashing down. It was much closer than they had expected. Everyone in the group had to rush back as not to get crushed. Shou however, did not move. As the megatherium crashed to its feet, it further crashed towards the ground on its stomach, completely enveloping Shou.
That is, if it weren't for the dazzling swirling blades that shot blood skyward from the center of the megatherium's body. The megatherium hadn't fallen to its stomach, it had died. Out of the center of the megatherium, Shou climbed out, covered in blood with a demented smile plastered across her face.
[Shou] "I told you I'd take care of it!"
Everyone just stared at her as she got down from the behemoth's back, trying unsuccessfully to wipe herself off. After giving up, she looked up at you. Specifically you, her gaze not focused on anything but you.
[Shou] "Hey, where's your boyfriend?"
It is then that you realize that you had let go of Jake's leash.
God, you are SO STUPID!
((Hm... hard to say... she's known her power existed since she was ten, and she's been honing her skills since then. Then again, it's not like her skills needed much more honing in the first place. I'll leave the decision up to you, but I don't think she would lose energy like that.))

They beat me with a whip until I was pretty much numb from pain... after the pain had settled down, they did tests on me... I'll never forget what happened to me. I'm... sorry I asked," I said remorsefully.
Zoey shrugs. "I consider myself lucky a lot. It could have been so much worse. At least I'm strong now, I'm free unlike some of the people I met... A pretty sucky beginning to life, but you can't avoid it. They at least didn't touch Jessica, I made a deal with the soldiers. They don't touch them, I won't... I... Sorry," she says looking away to regain her composure before putting her hands over Jessica's ears and saying, "wouldn't resist," without meeting his eyes. "Jessica had the worse part I feel like, she had to endure a lot more tests that were worst than mine... You know while I went back to the ETG to free the rest of the gifted, they put me in the same section I'd been in before and with the same guards. It was like revisiting a nightmare," she says and stares off somewhere into her memories. "It feels good to tell someone, Jessica's too young to listen to me talk about it, and even though I'm not going into details about anything, its a relief to share, thanks," she says and looks over at him as she releases her sister.
((Yeah, scratch that ultimate explanation thingy. I'm to lazy to finish that is just one day. Gas filled bladders in certain areas of his body like the arms and somewhere in his legs and other places. How does he have the space? No bones in those areas. Supported by the gas bladders instead. Veins filled with this gas travel throughout most of his body. And the exit through thin capillaries. But how he control the expulsions of the gas? He controls the thickness of the capillary. How gas go out of body? Through pores in his skin. He can also just like open up his skin, but eh. But why he no burn? HE STARTS TO SWEAT OILS. Like the ones hellhound alphas do. But how he get oils? Shut up. Made by his fat and other shizzle. Man. Plus he don't even need them oils. He can just regen. Man. Sweated out the same way sweat is. But having flammable gas throughout your body doesn't sounds safe! It really isn't. But being encased in flames is very cool.))
((lacking bones in non-specific areas of your body sounds rather inconvenient. Brittle bones and what not.
So if you get a deep cut while on fire, you'll spontaneously combust, since your gas veins will be exposed.
I don't think oils are enough to protect the skin from an open flame for an extended period of time.
His oils apparently come from nowhere, but appear in large quantities again from nowhere.
regen is even less feasible, as regrowing skin faster than a burn is not possible is extremely unlikely, and would cause rapid malnutrition.
But I agree, being encased in flames is very cool.))
((meh ryik, doesn't really fit the image i've got of him in my head. the pics i found don't really either, but they're pretty close. now i just have to decide between the three of them... *bangs head on computer desk in frustration*))
((Ryik I'm going to have to ask you to stop posting epic things the forums wont let me upvote you anymore today))
“Ahh so that's your normal form” he comments writing down a few details making adjustments to entries a few pages back “Say your eyes look strikingly like Cherenkov radiation, is there any connection?”
she raises an eyebrow. "not actually my 'normal' form, per se, just my most-often-used human one. and what do you mean, about the radiation? as far as i know, i'm not radioactive or anything..." she frowns, thinking about that. "although i could probably turn into something radioactive.. it'd take a while though, probably."
((yeah Matt, i think i'm going with the first one. seems most fitting. although i really do like the second one.. eh, i can use that for another character. i really didn't imagine Stephen as having blond hair.))
Zoey shrugs. "I consider myself lucky a lot. It could have been so much worse. At least I'm strong now, I'm free unlike some of the people I met... A pretty sucky beginning to life, but you can't avoid it. They at least didn't touch Jessica, I made a deal with the soldiers. They don't touch them, I won't... I...

((Why cover the ears of a mindreader? Does Jessica not use her powers on people usually?))
((meh ryik, doesn't really fit the image i've got of him in my head. the pics i found don't really either, but they're pretty close. now i just have to decide between the three of them... *bangs head on computer desk in frustration*))
((I was making a joke on the name, though yeah, he does look like your choices interestingly.
~I agree, 1st or 2nd seem to fit most
note: Steven isn't usually so crabby as the guy in the picture. although he probably is right now, being forced to watch Krodin take advantage of his daughter.
“I'm going to take that as a no. So Liam, about your power are you sure the limit is based off of mass and not weight or volume?” he asks while making a few adjustments to his entry on Silvira.
"You're welcome, Zoey," I responded as I began to float. "It's nice to be able to tell somebody other than some random waiter I find at a restaurant about my life. And, as much as I hate to admit it, yes, I have actually done that," I confessed, blushing slightly. It was subtle though, so I'm hoping she didn't notice.

I entered my house, and it was pretty nice. Well, compared to other houses I've lived in. I'd been living in this house for only a couple of days now. Faction housing isn't half-bad. I went into the back of my house, and next to my bed was a huge wardrobe. I opened several of the many cabinets in it, and they were lined with swords and empty spaces. I put all but one of my current swords except for one - a claymore - in the wardrobe, and pulled out a saber, two Katanas, and a swiss long sword, along with a cutlass and a rapier, and put them in the sockets in my coat. I had six sheathe holders on my trench coat, three on each side of the coat. My Claymore was strapped by a band looping around my chest and the Claymore was sheathed on my back. Always was my favorite sword, so it's only proper to put it in a special place, apart from the others.
