    Sophie takes the bass and listens for a while before starting, she felt she was going rather well until she missed one note, blushing furiously, but carrying on as best she could, finishing again and looking up nervously. She respected Adam's musical prowess and was very un-confident about her chances within the band, but hey, if she didn't try then she'd never know.

    ((Sophie's ok at the bass and can get a rhythm going and is far more 'taught' with it, shes obviously had a few lessons but she is far less relaxed and misses a few notes, probably from nervousness))

    Sophie sat down and took a sheet of paper out from her pocket, unfolding it and handing it almost reverently too Acenra,

    "Be careful with it, my Mum wrote it down," She smiled, "It's called, 'My Old Man', it's a little simple but it's really nice"

    She began.

    ((ok, for those who don't know the song, it is an old Irish folk song, written by an unknown Irishman, when i first heard it it was during a music festival in Dublin. It was a getting late and they were asking people to come up and sing, so up stepped one bloke, handed the guitarist a sheet of music and sung this song. Literally, by the end of it, the entire pub, the landlord and even the guitarist were upset, some had tears in their eyes. Sorry to have to tell a story but it seriously is a VERY sad song about someone's dead dad. As far as how well Sophie does it, she isn't a sonic/sonic defender or anything but she does it justice and is very emotive and seems to be able to cover a lot of the note range easily ))

    Sophie finished and waited nervously for Adam's response.
  3. cheers m8, much appreciated, i am @leprechaun.

  5. ((bah, he had to use a whip didn't he? no sword or anything so now Sophie has to act all embarrassed cause 'getting whipped' by a demon sounds overly strange ))

    Sophie nods, "ok sure, anything in particular or can i choose?"
  10. ummm ok, lets have a go...

    Gauisus Somnium

    Name:
    **** i like this quite a lot, yeah it's complicated, yeah it's annoying, but when he first meets someone it always get the conversation going and it sounds fairly mystical etc.

    Looks:
    ***** I love they way Jack looks, the jacket, helmet and all the rest of it, suits me down to the bone, don't know why just does

    Powers:
    **** Dark/Dark Scrapper, brilliant for rp, sometimes lets me down when in teams.

    ########

    Ebon Tear

    Name:
    *** i like the Ebon bit... but the tear bit doesn't work so well now that it's not in the plotline, i have a reason for the being her name... but it just makes her sound kinda depressed.

    Looks:
    **** I hate her 2nd costume which i currently trying to change it something a bit nicer, but her casaul clothes i like and it's pretty individual i think.

    Powers:
    **** Again i like dark/dark a lot even with defenders whom i normally can't play very long

    ###last one###

    Genesis Blade

    Name:
    ***** Love the name... just sounds right

    Looks:
    *** I quite like Genesis's looks but i think the hat makes him look a bit daft to be honest, i've just tried a set of casual clothes on him and it is very hard to get it to fit his character lol

    Powers:
    **** Katana/Regen scrapper, again i am really enjoying this and looking forward to some of the higher end powers.

    "Well, i can do bass, fairly well and i can sing," she smiles weakly, trying to get ready.

    Sophie followed behind up the stairs into the music room and waited for whatever Adam had planned for her to do, or maybe she would be allowed to think something of her own choice...

    "uh, yeah, if you don't mind," Sophie took around inside the small appartment and shrugged, "are they one still? i saw a flyer on a telegraph pole in the Hollows."

    Sophie stood at the door to the appartment, just making sure everything was alright she took a deep breath and knocked on the door, hearing the music inside stop she waited to begin the auditions.
  15. It has to be Sar Fury 101

    Don't need to know about Fury to be a good villain if you make us all laugh to death
  16. brilliant again Swissy lol, as always, fravourite has to More Randomness 1, just love the pose/action in it
  17. my fravourite one yet

    How come on the mail section it is Thunder bird? lol
  18. well i'd say asking here or going to GG, there are lots of RP SGs around, i don't know all of the but there are a few below

    The Fletched Alliance
    The Militia
    The Silent Tempest
    The Warriors of Darkness
    The Hunters
    The Cirque De La Lune

    ok those are just a few i know of, each one has a different theme or idea behind it and you just have to decide which fits your character i guess. If your character was say... anyone who liked explosions - the fletched alliance would be a good call. A mysterious clown or card player or someone with secrets to hide - The Cirque De la Lune might work nicely.

    Dusk had fallen upon the hollows, crushing out the light and enveloping the streets in a cloak of silence that muted the roars of trolls and the jeers of the Outcasts. Sophie slowly made her way through home, occasionally trying to teleport, although reluctant since the last attempt had been embarrassing at the least. As she walked past a lamp post she stopped and looked at the sheet stapled on one side. Quickly flicking through the badly made poster she smiled when she saw who was starting it and snatched the poster making a mental note to call and see if any places were open, she'd never call herself as musical as Adam but hey, she might as well try, and if she didn't make it in at least she had made the effort.
  20. Lo there, was skimming back through the forums when i found this and thought i might as well make a post so here we go

    Gauisus Somnium - Prayer by Disturbed
    simply because of the line 'this is the way i pray' and the general rebellious feel of the song, stand against the tide, all that stuff


    Genesis Blade - Ten Thousand Fists - Disturbed (same band i know, i'm boring that way)
    I actually based the whole of Genesis's character around this song, especially the 'sight of ten...' bit gave me the idea for his blindness.

    Ebon Tear - I have no idea? any help lol, can't think of one to fit her character
  21. ((i think that one slid by me Acenra, in one ear and out the other... any chance asking bout in game to explain? probably just missing some obvious as normal ))

    That's how I write. I just start from one cliche (It was a dark and stormy night....) and go from there.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    i do something similar but i like to have some idea ya know lol. And i probably won't do my old idea now need to make up my mind but i am gonna do something i've been working on mentally for a while, will be nice to get it down on paper lol
  23. i think i'm going to do something about Jack's early days, during the war and more focally, the time he spent in Egypt shortly afterwards. If that doesn't fill up the 50k then i will move on to the experiences he has had with the circle recently and try and top it up although i think the egypt thing will fill it up
