Kitty in the House

About Aya's presence with Schreient, may I assume that either Carmen or Henri has transmitted the news to Omi by now?

And did it spread beyond that?



Happy New Year everyone, joy, luck, and best wishes. =)

Glenn.

So...you may have noticed Adal hiring Schreient for another job. That will be the big game-wide plot! So I want to give everyone a lot of heads-up to discuss things, game time with pause during the event, and yes. Stuff and things.

What it is is this: Adal and Schubert are going to an Esset member's wedding. Schreient will be their bodyguards. Through Henri(?), Kritiker will find out, so Weiss will be doing the flowers. Crashers will be there as backup, which will totes be needed. All people involved with Esset and Project Noir are invited as guests. Schwarz will probably decide to crash, because they're Schwarz, and it's not a party without them.

I think that accounts for EVERYONE in the game.

So obviously, this will be a bit of a game changer about where people's loyalties are. And Schubert will be killed in some way, shape or form (up to you), while Adal gets away. So. Start thinking about what you might like to go down. For my characters:

Jenny will be there with her mother. WTFyo.
Carmen will be all sorts of conflicted about what is going on.
Omi...will not be there.
Dan will be hoping his father is there :x Personal vendetta, what?
Crawford will...I'm not sure. Joan?
Anita will be a guest, avoiding violence, and doing traditional doctor stuff.



&EDIT:
Until I am back from hiatus, if you have an urgent question, you can tell Joan, and she'll text me :D Have fun and have a happy holiday, guys! Thanks for playing so far, I've been having a blast.

I meant to get this up sooner, but I've been busy. Anyways! It was planned that Schreient have a nice get together to welcome Carmen back! There was talk that Henri and Aya would be joining.

Is everyone fine with me setting this up to take place this week or early next week (depending on when I have confirmation from everyone)? I figure it would just be a good chance to bring everyone in Schreient together to interact and to introduce the new tag-alongs.

Questions? Concerns? Thumbs up?

Hello everyone!

This is Glenn, bringing you Mr Stoic Swordman extraordinaire, Fujimiya Ran (Aya for Weiss).

I've followed Weiss Kreuz waaaay back then when it first came out (more than 10 years ago!). It coincided with the boom of Internet and the spread of anime/manga resources online, so I've always associated the series to the good memories of how I got addicted to the world wide web. So of course, when I saw this RP, I simply couldn't resist. =D

So there you go, Ran has now joined the scenes, sort of late in the story, but then he didn't expect to become involved at all at first. People have been poking around his sister, Aya-chan, and he's bloody furious about it. Ran doesn't know who or why, but he intends to find out, and eliminate the threat. (If somebody wants to take up responsibilities for the new development, that would be great!)

At this point in time, Ran is still cautious about revealing himself to Kritiker. The people he used to know are either changed or gone or in a different group, and he always hated to be under the rule of anybody. What he wants is information, and a better idea of what's going on right now and why people might be interested in Aya-chan (or her family) again. With exception of his grudge against Esset, Ran's allegiance is up to grab. If given a good enough reason, I don't see why he couldn't join Schwarz or Crasher or just about any group but Esset/Project Noir, really. Alternatively, he can work solo, but he'd still need contacts and interactions.

Just drop me a line anybody who wants to plot with Ran or chat or write a scene. I'd love to meet all of you.

Dear all! Activity is slacking--I know, I know, it's the holiday season. But please take a hiatus if you need one, or keep those character updated! This means you!

Also, run those f-buttons, because we have a mothereffing Ran :D

Hey, all! A little bit of game planning time. :) We have a lot of exciting things happening in game, and, for some of us, a potentially hectic holiday season also fast approaching. As far as I know, I won't have internet from Dec. 24th - Jan 10th or so. Now. Why am I telling you this (other than I should give people warnings for things like this)? Because I want a crazy big game-wide scene, and I need OOC input on when to have it.

Once Henri has settled into Schreient and there is a sort of status quo in the teams, it'll be time for a final showdown with Schubert, which most characters will/can be present for. Big threads like this are a hassle enough in not hectic times, so there will be a lot of OOC discussion and probably subthreads/narratives/etc. But when would be the best time to have said scene? I will probably freeze game time for a while and then jump back to present time so people will have some time to work things out.

But:
-try to cram it in the middle of December?
-have it over the Christmas/New Year's season when I'll be gone :(
-have in middle of January (and therefore encourage interest in the game after a potentially slow month)

Thoughts? I know that this is way early and who knows what will happen between now and then, but if people have really open schedules now and we want to rush into it I should know to set some more things up ;D



There will be another game-wide plot soon, of course (this is a piece), so look later for a post for volunteers! Also smaller team plots! Recommend them! Something that doesn't make Weiss implode! ...sorry Ken, Jay and Gunther.

Hi everyone! My name is Rachel (2) and I'm new. Huzzah! I know a handful of you already, so I feel right at home here. To everyone I don't know, howdy! Weiß Kreuz is new to me, so please be gentle.

I'm bringing the lovable pot of crazy Tot to the game. Her profile is here for those who are curious. Tot is unique in that she refers to herself in third person and is apparently incapable of maturing past the age of twelve. Her best friend is her stuff rabbit, Mr. Bunny, whom she talks to regularly. She is also the leader of Schreient, though this information is primarily unknown. She works out of a small base of operations on the Germany-France border (specific, I know). Members of Schreient are more than welcome and encouraged to stay with their adorable leader between jobs.

I was given a synopsis of plotty happenings from Marissa, but I would still like to know more. People in Schreient, please update me on missions and let me know how you think their relationship to Tot is. Everyone else, let me know if Schreient has had any business with your character/team/etc.

I'm looking forward to getting Tot into the game. If you have any ideas, drop them here, email me at chesty.bits@gmail.com, or ping me on AIM at sinisteraglets.

Meeshesesh and I are currently working on the scene, but FYI this happened last night/this morning. So yay Carmen is out. Well. Yay for her. Probably not so yay for others.

Tomorrow, I'm leaving to go to NYC with my bff. I will be back Fridayish.

I will probably get the narrative of sniping the leak tonight.

I have questions :)

1) Anyone want to scene before Carmen is released?

2) Carmen being released--Weiss kicks her out somewhere, somebody rescues her, I'm up for pretty much anything. It sounds like Weiss doesn't want to kill her, so they'll probably just drop her off, um, somewhere and tell her never to return :( Oh wait, she deserves that.

3) I will post what we have of the Library scene tomorrow, and we can keep working on it, but it will take place technically on Thursday, so there can be reactions and responses to it on Friday if anyone wants to get injured or complain about libraries or whatever.

4) Who is Weiss wants to figure out Yoshiro is the leak :D?

I know we're all busy, so there's no rush on any of these things, but just so they're out there.

Hi guys, we've got a lot of plots going on:
-Nagi kidnapped
-Carmen kidnapped
-Schubert on the loose
-Yoshiro being a leak
-the Crashers GDoc

So I'm putting this here as a plotting post so no one feels left out :) I'm starting the two big Carmen-related scenes, but I'm lame, so that might take a while, but, um, Mamoru is too busy to meet her quickly and if he waits, he'll have a better idea of whether or not she is the leak. Look at that in character reasoning. And Alison suggested giving Carmen a little something to keep her more sedate, so I'd love that. And then if anyone wants a doped up Carmen thread, lol, let me know.

So yes. Plot and things. Please feel free to play with the Yoshiro being a leak thing, and that will probably come to a head post-Mamoru meeting Carmen.

Um, anything else people want to do? Adal kind of wants to meet Schwarz, but that's gotten lost in all the other crazy plot:)

I seem to be spending a great deal of my time lately apologising for being woefully negligent at my RP stuffs. And again, I find myself in that particular squirmy place. >.<

Due to a mixture of defective brain, having visitors and NOT having internets for a few days, Ben, Elizabeth and Martine have been more silent than should have been allowed. My brain is still not back to full speed, but it's getting there. My visitors have gone and I have a shiny new modem so my internets are back. This means that I am back too and being grovellingly apologetic yet again.

I know that Elizabeth is overdue for a post, and Martine is due today - they will both be showing their faces very soon. Elizabeth has just joined a thread with Aric and will be posting based on that once I've had a chance to speak to the wondermous Rach. And Martine and Ben will be following veryvery soon afterwards. *crosses heart*

Alison

HI THERE!

Hi guys! I'm BACK! I see that there are new people, new characters! Hello! Just a little recap for those of you I have not yet been acquainted with - my name is Meesha and I play Henri, Frenchman and world class fencer extraordinaire. He's a member of Weiss. Yay! I look forward to meeting and playing with all of you!

Speaking of playing... Anyone want to scene? Anyone want to catch up on everything I missed?

Lisa, by the bye, your tag is forthcoming! I'm assuming that Carmen still has poor Henri's sword? Joan, do you still want Shul to shoot Henri?

We've lost a couple characters (Yoshiro and Alex), so please run the f-button.

As far as what happens plot-wise, I thought I'd get your input. I figured Yoshiro could be called away on personal business...unless y'all wanted Weiss to have another causality :( If Weiss wanted a victory, they could take out Alex. Or he can just be sent elsewhere as well!

Any of the female members of Crashers feel up to, well, for lack of a better term, crashing a wedding?

Ken went and got himself a mission to track down Carmen and the more chances for insanity the better? Plus, it'd just be weird to have to pretend Manx or Birman is his date. That'd be like dating his Mom. Even if she was really hot.

Nothing's really been set in stone so any sort of brainstorming would be awesome as well. So yeah, anyone feel up for some wreaking some possible havoc?

Hellohello! It's Alison again, with another two characters for your delectation and delight. First, this here is Martine. She's very posh, English and 25 years old. She's very nearly a master at Gun Kata (as in the film "Equilibrium"), and she's also a receiving Empath and has an eidetic memory. She's a smart girl and has a degree in History and Medieval Studies, and she's Pawn with the Crashers.

My other new girl is the lovely Elizabeth Usher, heidnisch. Her name means both Heathen and Pagan in German for some unknown reason - but she's more Heathen for the purposes of this. She was an abused wife - but don't you DARE talk to her about syndromes since she sorted it all herself, thank you very much. She's with Shreient and she does a nifty line in Parkour/Freerunning and garroting. Well, it keeps her busy and y'know, some people just deserve it.

Contact details remain: AIM: Snakebittenraven (I'm pretty much always invisible but I WILL reply to pokes if I'm here), email: black.narcissus[at]gmail[dot]com

Thank you to peoples who've poked me with back stories for Ben, burmilla, to add to his history. I am more than grateful to accept all offers of past and present ties and acquaintances since therein lies fun and frolics!

Hi everyone! I'm Mary and I last watched Weiss Kreuz back in 2002 when my roommate had it on the TV and I was multi-tasking so... but this game had an interesting premise so I decided to give it a shot! :D

This is Gunther Kind, Team Weiss, and Code Name Nebelung and he is from Zurich, Switzerland meaning he is German Swiss (like his name doesn't give it away). Anyways, he comes from a big family, one of five children. His father runs a rifle range and he gives the marksmanship classes. So Gunther grew up shooting a lot of rifles and is wicked good at it.

He did his time in the Swiss Army and when he came home, to take up a job at the range, his youngest sister went missing along with several other children in the area. He felt that the police weren't doing enough so he did his own investigation. There was a science research facility dabbling in rituals and hypnotism to create an army of super soldiers. Gunther decided it would be a good idea to infiltrate the facility. He found his sister but he got captured in the process and now there is six months he only remembers flashes of. He actually has a "kill switch" implanted in his psyche. When someone utters the right word with a flashing light, he switches to his killer persona but he is unaware of this. However, he will space out if he comes in contact with flashing lights.

Anyways, he escaped from the facility and proceeded to hunt down the guys responsible for it. He managed to snipe one of them down but the other two fled shortly after but not before they set up a trap. They sent his sister after him in killer mode. He ended up killing her but not without taking a few bullets himself. While he was bleeding to death, he was picked up by someone from Kritiker who was investigating the area. He was picked up and taken care of. After hearing about his story and demonstrating his skills, Gunther was offered a position on Weiss team so he's pretty new.

Personality wise, he's very cheerful and sunny for someone who just killed his sister (which he really doesn't talk about at all). He's also very optimistic and is pretty religious too. If anyone has seen Rurouni Kenshin, he's kind of a good version of Soujiro Seta. He's all smiles but there is a lot underneathe that.

Anyways, my AIM is psionickender, my CDJ is nekoneechan, and my e-mail is padfootmk@yahoo.com.

I look forward to plotting and playing with you! :D

Hi! I'm the new player mentioned just below, and this here is the new character. He's the first of three that I'll be applying but he's my only boy.

Anyway, yes. I'm Alison. Some of you may know me - I'm English and a life-long resident of God's fair city of Liverpool. I'm... on the more mature side, years-wise, but I make up for it by having the mind of a chocolate rocking horse.

This here boy *points up* Is Dr. Benedict Antony Ferguson. He's known as Ben or Dr. Ferguson. Or Sir. Sir would do nicely, too. He's a doctor/surgeon with Kritiker - not up to brain surgery abilities, but he's still damn good. He's not the friendliest of people, but he's still one of the good guys so that must count for something, right? As well as being an excellent doctor, he's also got self-regenerative abilities and 20/4 vision, which is damn near hawk-eye. Oddly, he also has tattoos down both arms. I say "oddly" since you'd think his regen. abilities would erase them - but no. He doesn't understand why either. Also oddly, he has a scar on his left leg, and his leg is permanently weaker than his right. It doesn't show too much, but when he's tired his gait is just a teeny bit uneven. Awwwwww, bless.

So yes. That's Ben and this is me. :D Hi! Let me know if you want to have a poke at him as 'twere. I'm on AIM: Snakebittenraven, and email: black.narcissus[at]gmail[dot]com. I'm very often - in fact pretty much always - invisible on AIM, but poke anyway. If I'm there I WILL reply.

Thanks to everyone for being awesome so far. If the groups are up for it, we can have Weiss do a bit of revenge against Project Noir? Otherwise, Crashers is going after Schubert, and then there will be a big epic fight between Schubert and pretty much everyone, if that sounds good.

Activity so far has been pretty good, but if you are currently on the warned list, you have until Friday (9/10, 8 PM EST) to update, or you'll be removed.

We got a new player and character today, and hopefully more soon. Please pimp!

HEY, EVERYONE.
