[Nero's Fury]

~DANTE AND JASON AND TITAN~
Sensing no immediate danger they cluster near the door.

[KitsuneMarie]

Elayne sighs--although whether in relief or irritation she cannot say--and retreats from the hallway, taking up her seat by the Director. She pays him no heed, however, and focuses instead on her beer. Terenia, she imagines, is in good enough hands. And Corliss was undoubtedly taking care of Myitt. Besides, with Keshin in his current state, she didn't have to worry about either of his potential marks being targeted at the moment. "Well that was exciting," she mutters to herself, swirling the contents of her bottle.



EDIT: Sorry, Tara, I meant Myitt, not Mar. All these names! Ah! lol Thanks for catching that.

[Myitt]

((Marie--ya mean Ossanlin, or Corliss? XD Jeez, how many hats does Corliss hafta wear?   I edited Hadrin's earlier post.))

Corliss hurries past Parker and into the building, where the usual smell of booze and sawdust is mixed with the unpleasantly familiar smell of burning flesh. 

His heart leaps into his throat and he hurries toward the back of the bar.


---


Myitt cannot hear Parker through the ship, and the ship's computer, not recognizing Parker's language or the proper codes, does not respond either. 

Myitt can't, in fact, hear anything, because her host has passed out from exhaustion and alcohol.  She lies sprawled on her Bug fighter's cabin floor, catching up on an uneasy sleep for the first time in far too long.

[Chad32]

Temrash went out to take Keshin to the ship. He had a few small force field generators that could be used to hold her in a corner of the ship.

[Terenia]

((Chad, did Temrash exit through the back door that Terenia fell out of, or did he walk through the bar to the front door?))

[Chad32]

(Um...not sure. I think he's parked out front, but the back door is closer. Would you like him to have passed by Tamora so she could see them? I'm fine either way.)

[Terenia]

((It doesn't matter. Tamora's going to be suspicious at this point either way, but she'll realize what went wrong more quickly if Temrash walks through the bar))

[Nero's Fury]

~TANK MY NEW CHARACTER~
Stepping through the front entrance Tank approaches Dante, "Brother sorry for my absence."


~DANTE~
Nodding Dante turned to his hulk of a brother. "Tank, your the most intimidating of us all so you stand gaurd here. Jason, gaurd the front. Titan, take to the sky. Ill follow. Anyone see anything threatening...take it out"

Watching Titan rise into the sky, Dante waited long enough to watch Jason leave before turning to leave also.


~TITAN~
Rising high hard and fast Titan allowed himself to scan the land for suspicious activity.

Why must he make us do such redundant work. She is safe now. Must we interfere more? he thought to himself.

[Myitt]

((Goku, please keep in mind that limiting your character number is helpful at first; it helps you build your RP skills, build your character's background, and your development with the other bar patrons.  Too many who are too similar make getting to interact with you very confusing, so can you please try to narrow it to one or two of those characters?  Thanks.

Also guys, keep in mind general RP etiquette--I know battles are fun and all, but in real life, people don't tend to rush toward the sound of a fight between people in another room, and whom they don't even know.  Just a few pointers, I don't mean to be rude or anything, but a few general rules of character interaction and development need to be considered.

Thanks everyone!))

[Nero's Fury]

(they are being cautious and lol i run to fights like that)

[Terenia]

((Goku....YOU run to a fight, or all of your characters run to a fight? Realistically all characters have different personalities, so I doubt all of them would react exactly the same in any given situation, and they certainly wouldn't always act the same way you would act IRL. It makes sense that maybe one character would run to the fight...Dante, for example, since he was right by the bathroom...but all of them at once?

Also, as I already mentioned...PLEASE make sure your characters are defeatable. Obviously we haven't seen them in a fight yet, but from the little bit I have seen I've noticed that they are quite powerful. Keep in mind that most characters in this bar do not have powers more extraordinary than morphing, and sometimes not even that. Those characters who DO have powers, like Joanne, for example, have extreme drawbacks that occur if they use their powers. For example if Joanne uses her ability to electrocute people she could very well give herself a deadly heart attack and, at the very least, would be extremely weak immediately after using it.

I'm not trying to discourage you from participating, I just want to make sure that your characters are compatible with the characters already in the bar. That'll make it easier for them to interact with us and more fun for everyone!))


Tamora's eyes narrow when half of the bar seems to empty into the corridor following the Dracon shot. I must have underestimated how well she was protected, she thinks, I thought everyone hated her. Evidently not. Realizing her mistake Tamora does not do anything to draw attention to herself, instead pretending to be fascinated by her drink. After a few minutes the crowd begins to clear slightly, but Keshin does not reappear. Tamora frowns, wondering exactly how badly things went. I don't know for sure that it was Keshin's shot, Tamora realizes, What if Teresa killed her?

Tamora pushes her drink away, suddenly no longer thirsty. Tamora has no particular attachments to the bounty hunter, but the idea that she caused someone who had been perfectly cordial to her to die makes her nauseous.

"So much death," she mutters to no one in particular, pulling herself to her feet. She hesitates by the bar, torn between waiting there and going to check on Keshin.

[Chad32]

(I thought everyone's first instinct was to rush towards disturbances. That's why crowds form around people getting into a fight, or slow down to look at car wrecks. Well my characters have justified reasons for being there.)

[Myitt]

((No, Chad.  In a bar where everyone is a paranoid outcast, it is not the first instinct to run toward a fight unless you have reason to believe it is someone you know who is involved.  For example, my characters are highly vested in Terenia's well being, and Hadrin for one knows that Keshin disappeared with Terenia into the hall with the bathrooms.  Just because it's the "action" doesn't mean everyone suddenly knows to "save her".  How do you know she's good, or a girl?    With Temrash I can understand, and Cody, well he's a jerk.  But some of the other characters in here have no reason to be involved in this fight, other than roleplaying inexperience.  Sorry, it's a newbie rule we all had to learn!  How to hold back from the action when realism necessitates it.

Jessi (Teach) also has brought up a few great points that have been mentioned before--this is a bar that might have some extraordinarily powerful people, but they MUST have a drawback, and a significant one.  Think of it this way: The more powerful the power, the greater the drawback.  My human-Controllers can shoot a weapon, but get sliced open by a Hork-Bajir.  Mar is basically the Devil, but if he tries to use magic he pulls out his own kidneys and nearly dies.  Keshin is super fast and has electricity powers, but it nearly kills his host and she needs medicine to keep it going.  Use semi-realistic attributes to bring realism and depth to your characters; nobody likes fighting a devastatingly beautiful, unbeatable god.  Especially when they're meat-sacks that can die easily.))

[Nero's Fury]

(i never had a reason to say but they do have drawbacks.

on there own if they use their powers greatly they will exaust themselves greatly as well

which is exactly why they fight as a group as much as possible.

and they all are as previously mentioned assassins so are always ready to do battle however like not to fight unless absolutely necessary.)

[Terenia]

Terenia, still unconscious in Parker's arms, shows no signs of waking up.The rank smell of burnt flesh is coming from her, the skin that remains on her right side is charred beyond recognition. She is not bleeding much, thanks to the heat of the Dracon cauterizing the wounds, but she is still clearly not improving. Her breathing is shallow and forced and her pulse, if anyone bothered to check, is faint.
