(( would be interesting, my character is on Virtue just fyi. I'd help out. ))

Phaith was dragged toward the dark end of the Zigguart.

The guard stopped infront of a large iron door. Several locking mechanisms covered the door, with the only possible way to unlock it a very tiny key hole in the center of the door.

The guard turnt the key and several grinding gears and sliding locks could be heard opening and turning. The door creeped oepn an inch and the guard slowly pulled it the rest of the way open.

He waved Phaith toward the pitch black doorway however Phaith didn't move. He was remembering his last trip into the endless dark void infront of him...and he was afraid.

The guard slammed the butt of his gun into Phaiths back and he crashed to his knees. The guard didn't like leaving the door to the abyss open for long periods of time. He quickly pushed Phaith and slammed the door after him.

Phaith looked back, no line of light where the door way, no sound of the locks reopening, nothing at all. Phaith stood slowly and took three steps back toward the door was. He hit no wall. He took 5 for more steps and still no wall or door. This was the endless abyss from which escape was near impossible.

(( I've been getting ready for senior prom most of the week so i've been to busy to update. I just got home from it about 5 min ago and wanted to let everyone know I will be posting tomorrow. I'm not dead yet =P ))

(( Double post my bad ))

And Torroes had a feeling is Phaith wanted to, he could and would manipulate others to his side. Best not to make a public rivalry just yet.

(( That is so perfect because Phaith is the very very Manipulative type =P Even if he were to get a dose of Superdyne his powers wouldn't be close to some very weak villains. In the game he is a simple Martial arts/Super Reflexes Stalker. To get the things he needs he has to manipulate the Villains with true powers. ))

(( I was just gonna include more about the Abyss in my next post but I'll put it here.

The Abyss is like the hold. Just a small dark room that they throw trouble makers in. However there is something odd about the Abyss. When the door is opened no light enters the small room. The guard might shine his flashlight in and the light would simply end at the entrance to the room.

The reason Phaith is respected inside the Zig is because he is the only person to truly come out of the Abyss almost normal. Most are either found dead after 24 hours inside the Abyss, some have actually disappeared inside of it before. A few hours inside the Abyss wont kill you, however most come out pale and don't speak for a fewe weeks. Only 3 have survived long term stays inside the Abyss, Phaith and 2 others. The other two stay inside their cells now, sitting in the corner. They seemed to have aged several years after exiting the Abyss even though it had only been a few days.

Some believe it is one of Doctor Raiken's experiments, other believe some powerful villain died inside of it and his present is what causes the room to be so strange. Others believe it was always there, even before the prison was built and to hide it they built the prison around it. No one knows for sure, all they know is you never -ever- want to go there. ))

Phaith glanced at Torroes for a moment. He knew little about Torroes except that he wasn't a trouble maker and whenever a breakout occured he could be found on the guard's side. An odd Villain that at this point in time might be more of a hero, especially in the Zig.

Recreation had been canceled for the time being, lunch would come later...until then there was nothing much to do but sit and wait.

Phaith began to ponder the current events happening in the Zig...Ryuu was here and seemed to have some nice talents...Ghoul had attempted to contact Ryuu but the conversation had been short...some giant overgrown monster of a man had been moved into a few cells down as well as some robot freak into the cell next to them.

Phaith needed time to think alone...he went over to the cell and stuck his hand out and yelled for a guard...

He glanced back and saw Ryuu with a curious look on his face, Torroes hadn't moved from his spot on the wall. Footsteps could be heard as the guard approached.

"What is it Villain!?", the guard spat as he came to a stop infront of the cell.

"I didn't mean to bother you Sir...but I have some information that could be useful to you...just come here and I'll whisper it to ya.", Phaith said in a low voice.

"Stupid Villain...", the Guard mumbled but he took the bait. Information from a prisoner as well known as Phaith could be useful...

The guard stepped up the cell and leaned toward Phaith. As he did Phaith grabbed his collar and pulled him as hard as he could into the bars. The guard hit them hard, busting his lip and jumped backwards.

"Are you insane!", the guard screamed and hit Phaith with his taser gun. "A stunt like that should earn you some time with the Abyss!" The guard laughed opening the cell and dragging Phaith out, hitting him again with his taser.

Phaith was dragged off toward the Abyss Grinning and watching as his cellmates looked oddly after him.

Phaith had been one of only 3 people who had ever survived long term stay in the Abyss. The other 2 people survived, however they now sat in their cells, grey haired and constantly stressed. Phaith had been the only one to come out almost excatly how he had went in. Almost....before he went in he had had his left eye, afterwards he didn't. Now he would be the only person to survive two long trips to the Abyss...atleast he hoped.

((pst - thanks. Fixed the post))

[/ QUOTE ]

(( also there is still some mentioning of 3 people in the cell near the end of your post. Just FYI if you wanted to fix that as well =P Off to bed with me now ))

(( I relize its my turn, i leave for weekends though and I'm extremely tired and don't want to mess anything up with my laziness. So I'll post tomorrow. Also welcome fang =P ))

Phaiths watched as several guards ran off toward Block E. The mayor and his little parade had went off in that direction. He wondered what was going down.

Looking over his shoulder he watched Ryuu sitting, unmoving. The siren went off letting everyone know a new prisoner was coming in. Looking down as the doors opened he saw Torroes being brought in.

"Their moving -HIM- into our sector...what perfect timeing...", Phaith mumbled. Phaith had seen Torroes around the Zig before. He had been here almost as long as Phaith could remember. He would be very useful....even if the sap was on the guards side. The guy that was screaming about his robots earlier might be useful after all...

535. I cannot make a dungeon crawl easier by opening a rival dungeon and hiring away all his guards.

Phaith sat thinking for a moment. Ryuu ment to target Doctor Raiken. Not something he himself would want. He had been in Raiken's office several times in his long stay at the Zig, and Phaith would never forgot those times. He had basically be tortured for no other reason then to entertain Raiken.

Phaith began scrubbing his broken spoon against the side of the bed. Soon it would be rubbed to a point...good enough if anything bad happened soon. Then he waited, they would be let out of their cells soon for "recreation".

The boy began walking home leaving his car, now a pile of scrap parts, behind. The boy's name was Cal. Cal had lived in Paragon for most of his life, attending a school where teen heroes frequently took "bathroom breaks" to fight crime and the like.

It took awhile for Cal to get use to the frequent hero and Villain rumbles, but no it was just another day when a hero crashed through your window by mistake.

He cut down an allyway that would bring him out right beside his house. Sure it was Hellion territory, but they were just another part of your average day as well.

As Cal turned a corner a group of Hellions leaped out and blocked his way.

"Cough up the cash pretty boy"

Cal simply stood there with a uncaring look on his face as he looked at his watch.

"Did you hear me!? I said gimmie the money!", one of the hellions screamed as he walked up and picked Cal up by his collar.

Cal yawned and began to speak.

"Five....four..."

The hellion looked confused, "What are you doing?! Do you -WANT- me to kill you?"

"three....two...one...."

The hellion dropped Cal as his eyes widened. A moment later his entire body was incased in ice. Cal simply shook his head and walked past some ice shooting hero that had just dropped into the middle of the Hellion group. He ducked his head and kept walking as a rather large piece of ice crashed into the wall beside him.

Another shot at making a good RP. The Zigguart i started up is going pretty well so I figured I'd throw another idea out there.

This is the City of Heroes and Villains from the view point of the civilians. How do the powerless everyday people make due when villains and heroes come crashing through buildings and destroying everything in their path. Do they worship the heroes and villains for their actions, or perhaps they resent their constant meddling. Or maybe...they just get use to it.

You play the part of a powerless Civilian in either the Rouge Isles or Paragon city.

You have -NO- powers at all.

You may treat heroes or villains in whatever way you like.

You may go or live anywhere in the Isles or Paragon, however you may not leave them unless your are "moving away" and removing your character from the RP.

You may have conversations with heroes or villains and such.

You may create whatever situation you wish, you could be in the bank when it is being robbed or walking home in the isles and get robbed...whatever tickles your fancy.

Now let me start us off...

The story opens and we see a boy of about 19 walking to his car from yet another failed job interview.

"Stupid bank manager....you think being a level 50 undead mage would be enough to get any type of job...", the boy mumbles as he walks beside his car pulling out his keys.

The front of the building across the street explodes as the boy falls backwards tossing his keys into the air. Some golden clad hero and a black robed villain crash into the boy's car turning it into an instant pile of scraps. They then leap into the air simply leaveing the destoried car behind.

The boy stands shaking his fist after the fighting couple and simply sighs. He searches the ground for his key ring and goes to pick them up. As he reaches for them a blur of light shoots down the street creating a backdraft of wind strong enough to send the boy tumbling again...and send his keys right into the drainage system...

The boy looks around sighing again as he stands up and brushes his pants off, "God I love this city...."

"enlightening indeed..."

Phaith heard a voice from the cell beside his yelling something about "his robots". He Smashed a fist on the wall to get the guy's attention.

"Your toys should be in the Vault along with everyone's elses", Phaith said loud enough for the guy on the other side of the wall to hear,"Don't plan on getting those back any time soon fella."

Phaith laughed and twirled his broken spoon half in his hands and looked over to Ryuu.

"As for you Mr. Ryuu.....what's your plans here?"

(( Masterminds work pretty much the same as everyone else. For Zombies the anti powers thing blocks em, for thugs...well Thugs don't follow you to prison, same with mercs. Bots are locked in the vault along with all the other weapons. ))

(( i may join up, i'll have to think about it some more before I get into it ))

(( Sorry was gone for the weekend...so where were we...since someone is taking awhile to answer i'm afraid i'm gonna have to cut them off and end breakfest ))

Phaith stood as the guards screamed that breakfest was over and to line up.

Phaith went to throw away his plate, but before he did he broke his spoon in half making sure none of the guards saw. He tossed one half into the trash and faked a cough slipping the broken half into his mouth.

Phaith wasn't one to draw attention to himself or start trouble, but with Mr. Ryuu in his cell things looked to get interesting soon and it would be best to be ready.

(( We either assume we are now back in our cells before the next activity or are currently walking back to the cells if someone wanted to do something with that. Guards are escorting us to our cells just FYI. ))

Phaith stared at the man who had just appeared.

"What am I in here for...", Phaiths took a moment to think and laughed.

"A better question would be what haven't I done...Ryuu is in here for teaching I suppose...as for the fellow across from us I am not sure though I'm positive it wasn't anything good."

I'm going to toy with in Photoshop for a bit. I have yet to master Photoshop anymore then I have MS Paint...however I'm gonna try.

Thanks very much ^^

(( Holy wall of text batman, thats alot of stuff to read =P I'm gonna have to read it all and comment on it later as I'm busy atm =P

I also wanted to confirm that Torroes' is legit and I'm allowing his character because it is very interesting. ))

Just alittle link to a cartoony version of my main character, Phaiths. My scanner kills any manner of shading I attempt >.>

(( Some more information and rules might be nice. Look at other RPs like City of Zombies or my own The Ziggurat, several rules and descriptions of what is excatly going on and what is possible. Though from your 2nd post you gave me an idea of a new Rp......SiccNess AWAY! ))

((OOC: Ok, two things...

One: Mr. Grey. I thought Siccness was supposed to play the role of nurse.

Two: When I was asking about a person with 'devices', I ment in general RP. Who said I'd be putting him in prison? No, hes not prison worthy, nor is he a villain. Just so you know.

I simply made the Nurse, Doctor and other people. The others are free to use them as they please as long as they stick to the person's personality i posted. I only hold the right to throw guards or other things in peoples way if I feel they arn't...well >.> "having enough fun".

I actually went as far as controlling another persons character, making Ryuu bunk with me >.> Though he doesn't mind and Ghoul had already played it off as Ryuu had entered another cell other then his.

As far as the other devices in general RP it truely depends on what excatly are you bring in. A laser sword might work, simply replacing it with say the broadsword some heroes use. It really depends on what RP your joining, and if you make your own then you are the one that makes the rules, so its up to you.
