Stiki

Leeches got cought in the explosion, her shield held most of the blast back however but her two bodyguard robots were blew to pieces by it. Leeches snarled in anger, she would bet that the peace bringer had intended to kill her ignoring the obvious fact that he had nearly been killed by the tanks. She chuckled toherself, the nature of the battle had changed still she would check for survivors in the explosion just to give a show of cooperation. Then she would probably make her way down the sewers, she made sure the rest of her robots were still firing from the roof and circled the explosions crater, "My my what a pretty little mess".
She said in her echoey voice though she seemed to be letting her usual 'high and mighty' demenour slip a bit.

Justice For All had heard the explosion after he finished off the last of his three attackers with a swift stunning punch to the head and he moved to investigate, he could see smoke and twisted wrekage. He would do what he could to save any of the lobster people that were still alive in the area. He saw Leeches up above but ignored her, now was not the time to ressume old battles. He moved on through the wrekage dragging a unconsious lobster man from one of the tanks and dragging him to safety.

Justice For All decided to see what he could do against these 'lobster men' things had certainly took a turn for the strange today. He landed in the middle of a group of about ten lobster men and he activated his ice shield and his fists grew red with power, they said something in Chinese to him that probably was better left untranslated before they started to open fire at him. The bullets impacted off his ice armour and he right hooked one of the attackers in the head sending him spinning to the floor, he punched another across the face too sending him sprawling backwards. These things had some tough armour though he kicked a third in the chest and braughed a fist down into its back sending it smashing into the floor, he spun around as one closed in behind him and started to circle him snap[ing its claws. Justice simply ran at this one one steamrolling him into the floor and he jumped and took flight again with the Lobster men firing after him. He landed in an ally way not far from the sewer hole and saw three more lobster men approach him and got ready for another fight, he was certainly not going to get them all this way.

Leeches hissed in annoyance as her scanners buzzed and came up with a no signal message, then all hell broke loose as some of the lobster men and some of the raptors opened fire at the roof. One of her robots lurched backwards and smashed into the floor, it's chest was a smoking ruin. she sighed, she would have to improve the armour on those, she told two to follow her, the rest would keep firing at the lobsters down below as they fired they hit several lobster men sending them sprawling backwards. Leeches smiled, their armour was not so good either. She took to the sky leaving a trail of shadow stuff around her self and her two robot bodyguards followed her using jets built into their feet. She could see a hero pounding the T rex in the ehad with light and smirked, and casusally got a laser rifle off her back and fired into a raptor downing the beast, her weapon was not set on kill, after all even now she had appearances to keep up for diplomatic reasons, it it woke up and ate somone well that was not her problem. Then she spun in the air and her and her two body guard robots opened fire at the approaching lobstermen tanks and leeches said, "The bigger the risk the bigger the glory".

Leeches was not too impressed with the Barons warning and chuckled to herself, "My, my, so quick to panic".
She nodded to her robots, "Keep firing at the sewers, it will be a scientific curiosity to see if we can ignite the sewer gas with laser fire, let any heroes pass though, and hold fire if any go in there, now is not the time to break negotiations".
The sadows around her moved and pulsed like tenticles, she hated the idea of not firing on everyone in sight. She pondered the chinese thing, "Humm, I wonder place replacement? Interesting, time manipulations".
She said to one of her silver skull shaped shoulderpads, "Computer scan surrounding are for signs of matter displacement".
The Skull reponded in a metallic voice, "Yes mistress".
Then Leeches watched as her robots started firing on some of the raptors too.

Justice for all saw the net heading for him, he had two choices, let it grab him or avoid it, he decided on letting it take him, He sped up at remarkable flying speed and formed an ice shild around himself. He fled into the net acting almost like a dead weight with the intention of knocking both the riders off their mounts, He hoped this worked, sometime taking them by surprise like this worked wonders, other times it didn't, time would tell. As he hit both the riders fell from their mounts and scrambled a hold of the net, Justice used all his strength and flung the net onto the roof of a nearby building where the Cavemen landed in a huggled mess of rope and bodies, they were not dead though, just unconsious, he flew on having a look around and saw the hole in the sewers but decided above ground would need help too so had a look for more trouble spots.

On a nearby rooftop a female figure shrouded in shadowy dark energy came into view, she had saw the TV broadcast and was now watching the events unfold. She walked into the light revealing the infamous villain Countess Leeches. At the moment though she wa sin Paragon due to diplomatic arrangements between the isles and the USA goverment. She was of course intending to abuse her 'diplomatic immunity' plus a chance to disrupt one of the barons plans ammused her. Se clicked her fingers and six eight foot tall robots teleported to the roof next to her and lifted their arms that ended in powerful lasers, she smirked and the cybernetic enhacements in her eyes made them glow red as she said in a strange echoey voice, "Ah my toys, those big stupid looking dinosaurs, with the horns, blow the floor open in front of them lets see them fall into the sewers, it will be an ammusing specticle".
With that the robots oepend fire onto the road and Leeches activated her personal force field.

On another roof top the hero Justice For All had just arrived and was assessing the insane situation, he had to do a double take as he looked at the street below, what madness was this? He was going to have to take out the flyers first, the ground pounders were limited in movement the flyers were fast and deadly. He took to the skys flying in the air and he approached two of the flying attackers.

The secretive villain known as Skull Maiden read this news with interest, she had never actually met this person face to face but had heard he had certain artifacts she wanted via some of her contacts in the 'rare and illegal objects trade'. She pondered this, this would mean that any such artifacts now would be left 'up for grabs' she rubbed her chin in thought and hr balck and white skull painted face mask looked even more sinister in the half light of a abandoned attic. Yes, she would have to hide in the trees near the funeral, and see if anyone let slip about where he may have stored his artifacts.

((hope this is a ok entrance for a new villain im a bit out of practice))

Humm I see where you coming from but this game dont really work that way, I have a similar problem with salvage but just accept it. Though one thing I would like is the ability to invite offline alts to my sg's. or offline players, though I guess this would be too open to abuse.

Oh it was never to get rid of the slots, they would stay, however, i conceed its too much work really for something thats not really broken just a normal MMO mechanic.

I have came across a few players who say every other level does not achive much apart from slot position, I know this can be important though I also gather some players find these middle levels a bit of a drag. I have a couple of ideas to make these levels just a little bit less of a drag. Idea one: Have pool powers selectable between levels, I can see problems with this though so its very much a secondary idea as well, the major glaring problem is everyone would have every travel power probably, so would require a lot of work to give pool powers more options so you were still limited to only is it three or four pool powers? I forget right now.

Anyway on to my main idea, how about having, something like shunt or half powers. To better explain for example, say with Dark you have as I dont know level one dark blast, level 2 dark shove, or tenticle trip for the dark tenticle power, sort of complimenting powers for the main attack powers, and none slottable to avoid the slot problem you get one slot for these powers, as after all they are only to compliment your attack powers not to be a full on attack power, and your seconderies stay the same. Unless your an AT whos primary are holds and the like and secondarys are the attack powers. In that case the secondary gets the complimentary powers. I know this sounds a bit of a long winded idea but I thought it would make the between levels a little less of a drag.

Using old quotes from pc magazines that were said when the game was just a few frames of fighting, This looks to be the next WoW-pc magazine

Now at unbeatable value = We cant give this bugger away!

Amazing graphics = Only on a skynet sized computer.

An award winning company name= We actually braught the name after the company went bust and are using its name to push shoddy games.

Ready to play from the box=though some updating may be required.

So many good ones to look through.

Humm well one of my most strange RP moments was on the old Diskworld Mud, me and about three others all IC mode and in the nature of diskworld were wondering the wilderness with no map.

Me: Ughh.. well, its ok we don't need a torch, we should reach a city soon.
Guy1 Ok, but I get scared out here...you hear things about cabbages.
Guy2 Yeah, mean devils they are.
Me Well, I aint never heard of anyone being savaged by a cabbage
Guy3 Where the hell are we again?
Guy2 in a field and its getting dark.
Me, Just keep walking lads!
Guy1 Wiat, here be the river!
Me, right who can swin then, maybe we can get someone to get us a taxi wizard!
guy1 See you admit it we are lost!
Me...well...we might be..
Guy3 I CAN SWIM, SEE YOU LATER SUCKERS!
guy3 drowns...
Me...well that worked.
Guy1 Yeah, nice work there.

Some time later.

You enter a warehouse, Me, Ok lads see, told you we would get somewhere.
YOU GET ATTACKED BY A GIANT CABBAGE
Me arghha kill it kill it!
Guy 2 I told you they were mean!
Guy1 Pishe Protect...sod that run!
Death My my we have been a little careless havent we, shall we popadom to the next dimention?

Needless to say, a team wipe and three very angry ghosts made their way back for miles to the nearest city.

I dont think I would tell anyone about it, pretty much because I don't think anyone I know would really 'get it'. I could explain it as online acting but then it gets even more odd looks, solution say nothing :P

Ok taking all this outside the box so to speak, I have very limited PVP on this game so can't really comment. I mean I tried once with a Dar/Dark curruptor, that was suicide, then a MM again lasted all of five seconds and that was it. Though I did sort of enjoy the thrill of being hunted by real players it still made me not want to go back as I seemed to have no chance of winning and first impressions do count for a lot, I know now though both of them AT's are very difficult to use in PVP and corruptors are probably unsolable.

Anyway thinking aside from all this and other fps pvp games people saying LOL YOU SUCK STUPID NOOB, all the time do make you feel like hating all PVP events, happily though I never got that in this game, I just couldn't really defend myself which I found annoying, So yes as a outsiders point of view if you cant have a fair battle or at least cant even hit the enemy then it is broken.

However as stated this game was not really made for PVP and it seems the only way they will fix it, which is what they are hinting at is to have PVE build for outside of PVP and in PVP builds for inside the zones, in effect making it a seperate game by letting you make your own PVP only type build.

And just don't take it personal I guess, I see it in RP and PVE communities, someone probably not trying to upset anyone will say lol noob, or take something way too personal when it's intended as well 'out of the box', though you can't blame people for getting [censored] off if you get streams of abuse just for getting killed and trying to fight back, it didn't happen to me in this game but it has happened in other PVP games but as stated, nothing anyone can do about that ifs its competitive people will brag.

Overall though was PVP broken? Yes, will it be broken after these changes? Yes but it may jsut be easier for casual visitors to PVP to fight back. Can it ever be made perfect? Probably but it would take such a drastic overhaul that it would probably be way more contraversial than what they are doing.

((It was fun stuff, enjoyed it, sure we team wiped about 4 times but so what? We won in the end and it was a good RP time so thanks for organising it, as for the debt badges muwhaahaha I already have all of mine, i'm just that good :P))

((Deleted and reconned due to LOI dont know what I did wrong this time but there we go))

((just ignore the first part if its too much reading))

She activated the radio again and said, "ok boys and girls its request time".
With that she went on, I have put a bomb in each school in Paragon, unless I get 14 million dollars, a free pardon and all the prisoners currently in the zig are freed, if not the kids get a lesson in free flight, plus I still will have to kill these two".
She saw the huntsman bring the news crew in, "Correction these five people, have a nice day now".

Two hours later.

Leeches lit a cigarette and blew the smoke into cold air on a fire escape and she smirked to herself, and stretched her seemingly thin fragile form making odd popping noises as her bone realigned their selves. She headed into the office block where the prisoners were being held, it was a strangely muted affair the hostages seemed to be still only moving slowly, a radio microphone was on a table, and an areial had been hastily attached to the side of the building by some Arachnos agents disguised as workmen. She walked over to the radio microphone and made sure it would be transmitted across the city, “Good afternoon Paragon, its me again, your new villain, oh if you only knew the truth”.
She laughed and patted the microphone, “Now lets see where did I leave you all last time, oh yes that’s right, people of Paragon, your hero, well one of them, is about to make his greatest sacrifice, I would dearly love to show this moment on screen for you, but I think you have all had enough TV appearances, so ladies and gentlemen, you are going to hear some uneasy listening, tune in, in one hours time for some live agony in your eardrums”.
She moved away from the radio and stood up fully and smiled at the eight Arachnos soldiers dressed as street thugs, “Don’t worry boys, you will be protected, as will I”.
Cluvsun walked up to her, “Wont they be able to track dem radio signals to ere?
“Indeed they will Mr Cluvsun“. She said in a patronising tone,
“But don’t worry you little self, now its time for some music I believe”.
With that she pressed a few buttons on the radio and classical music started to play loudly through the whole office building.

((This will be a bit of a long winded start but I thought maybe some of you would like a nice run up for the event, and well I hope its not too contrived or samey and any questions or suggestions please feel free to PM me.))

It was raining slightly and the grey overcast sky seemed to cast a dreary feel to everything, the blue fields of the force walls that Protected Paragon could be seen all around in the distance as a plane came into land in Paragon airport. The plane touched down and came to a halt and started unloading its passengers and their luggage, everything seemed to be going on normally, well as normal as Paragon ever got. The indication though that things were not quite as normal as the airport wanted people to believe was the presence of a Longbow helicopter circling overhead, they were keeping their distance though and watching from afar, they were following orders, they had been told to stay clear but to keep their eyes on things, unknown to them however someone else had been keenly watching this flight as well.

Three figures were on a roof across the road from the airport, they were in the unmistakable black armour of Archons Wolf spiders but were under the cover of a shadow from a water tower and had built in stealth systems in their armour, all this would make them very difficult to detect. One of them was looking through some technologically advanced pair of binoculars as the other two kept watch for any heroes, so far though it had been silent, their presence had gone totally unnoticed it seemed. The one with the binoculars said down his helmet communicator, “Ok target has moved into passenger lounge he seemed to have at least six secret service people guarding him, will continue to monitor”.

On the street outside of the airports main entrance and exit, a seemingly normal tramp was staggering down the street and he could see three large black 4x4 vehicles waiting by the doorway with one police car in front and one behind them. He made a mental note of this and hobbled on his way further down the road and whispered down a hidden communicator, “Looks like they are going to move him in the 4X4’s here, looks like some police will be escorting them too, nothing we can‘t handle though, group two have already prepared the devices, Operative out”.
With that he hobbled seemingly drunkenly around a corner and down an ally way singing to himself and he vanished into a doorway of a nearby building.

On the roof the Wolf spider with the binoculars herd this and said to the others with him, “Ok lets go and get ready for the grab, remember though, the web mistress‘s orders are stun bullets only, she don‘t want any deaths, I know that’s not pleasing but I don‘t want to get on her bad side”.
With that they activated their suits stealth systems and jumped onto the fire escape and made their way down towards the airports main entrance, they were moving with practiced precision, these were no ordinary wolf spiders anyone could tell that by the way they moved. These were not your average barely trained thugs, they were also very ready for trouble and had rifles and the typical Archons mace with them. This was all going exactly as planned so far, but this whole thing was only just starting anything could happen now.

The convoy of vehicles started on its way and started driving slowly down the street, they were moving slowly as these vehicles were armoured. They almost idly drove down the street and the police escort kept a close watch, the Longbow helicopter was still circling overhead as well. The first police car passed a innocent enough looking water hydrant but as the first 4X4 started the pass the hydrant exploded in a huge explosion that knocked the 4X4 over on its side and sent it skidding sideways across the road, another hydrant near the rear police car also exploded flipping the police car forwards and sending it smashing into the back of the rearmost 4x4 which skidded forwards in turn smashing into the back of the middle one which was trying to turn desperately as a manhole underneath it slowly slid open and two stone encrusted fists punched the car sending it flipping on its side as a large man with robotic arms and legs encrusted in lumps of stone lifted himself out of the manhole and two Crab spiders in partial stealth lifted out behind him opening fire at the downed vehicles making sure anyone in them stayed under cover as the three stealthed Wolf Spiders ran from an ally way and over to the middle vehicle ready to grab their target.

Overhead the Helicopter had seen all this and the crew tried to send a radio message to their commanders only to find that the radio was being jammed. The Longbow soldiers in the back of the chopper prepared to put some Eagle backpacks on when they felt something hit the Helicopter and its started to spin around out of control and the pilot shouted, “It hit our tail rotor, hold on everyone, I think I can still get her down!
On the street below several pedestrians had no doubt been rather surprised to see a woman apparently pushing a baby in a pram pull out a heat seeking missile launcher from the pram and fire it at the Helicopter, she smiled as she saw it spin out of control and said down her communicator that was disguised as a wrist watch, “Eye is the sky is going down, am returning to base”.
With that she pulled a rifle from under her long coat and ran away towards a nearby manhole cover.

The three Wolf spiders opened the doors on the side of the 4X4 and fired their rifles inside stunning the three secret service guards and pulling their unconscious target out, they dragged him to the manhole and jumped inside followed by the cyborg and the two crab spiders who had blew out the tyres on the remaining police car and wrapped the police inside it in a covering of web grenades so they would not be following as the ambush group made their escape.

Paragon up and coming hero Justice For All though had arrived just to see the last part of the event unfold, he ran to the ambush area and saw the carnage but was relived to see that it seemed most people in the convoy had suffered minor wounds though one had a broken leg. He helped some of them out of the vehicles and then he saw the manhole, he had to try and rescue this guy, whoever it was. This was probably why all heroes had been told not to be in the airport zone by authorities, as they seemed to think a hero presence attracted trouble like flies to a rubbish dump plus some politicians were always wearing about heroes. He shoved the manhole aside and said to one of the secret service men, “Call for backup as soon as you can, I am going after them, you try and get things up here sorted out”.
The secret service man nodded and started to organise his men. Justice hoped none of them followed him as whoever organised this ambush seemed to know what they were doing and them following him would probably only get them killed. He wished he could call for backup though but there was no time to waste on waiting for someone to break the jamming signal, he was going to have to go this one alone.

He form a shield of ice around himself as he jumped down into the sewer tunnels, he was surprised to find that the tunnel had been drained of sewage. What was going on here? He looked around cautiously but couldn‘t see anyone, that didn‘t really reassure him though these guys had been using some kind of stealth they had to have been. He herd voices up ahead and got ready for trouble as he slowly approached a corner, he took a deep breath as he took a peek around the corner. He saw the back of an Arachnos crab spider and some big guy that seemed to be half robot but have stone powers. Great if a Crab spider wasn’t enough trouble he would have someone with power to deal with, he was going to have to take them out quickly and he kicked the crab spider in the back of the knees and jumped around the arms of the backpack as the arms fired lasers in all directions, he had obviously surprised the Crab spider and he took advantage of the surprise by slamming a punch into the Crab spiders head hard enough to knock the soldier out despite the armour. It seemed though he had jumped the gun somewhat and the stone user was on top of him pummelling at him with his fists in the space of a second or two at most, then he seemed to pull away. Justice For All swung a counter punch at the attacker and felt a net suddenly wrap itself around him. He used his strength and yanked at it pulling two Arachnos soldiers over as he did and sending them sprawling across the floor. A third Arachnos soldier ran at him swinging his mace. Justice For All punched the soldier in the chest denting his armour and flung him backwards and up against a wall with the force of the punch. He realised though too late the soldier attack had been a distraction and a stone covered metal fist hit him in the head and he staggered backwards and slipped down a wall, he felt consciousness leave him as he saw a woman stand over him with shadows seemingly drifting around her, he recognised her, his old enemy, Countess or was it lady Leeches?

He came around tied to a chair and leeches smiled mockingly at him, “Nice of you to join us Justice man, she chuckled almost childlike with her strange echoey voice as she went on, “We have so much catching up to do“.
Then her tone changed almost instantly till her voice was almost demonic sounding and the shadow stuff around her seemed to change form from smoky to almost having a jagged edge appearance to it, “I have so been looking forwards to my payback“.
Justice shook his head trying to clear his mind, god not her, why did it have to be her? He knew he was in serious trouble here so tried to reason with her, “Look, I know this is going to sound like begging but, it don‘t have to be like this, just hand that guy over all this can be forgotten about“.
Leeches laughed but it was a bitter laugh full of malice, “Oh I think not, I am making a statement, you will see, they all will”.
“Look I’ve told you before killing will just get you hated more!
Leeches glared at him with her black eyes boring into his, “I am already hated for something I done sixty years ago! Paragon and its form of human justice chooses never to forget, so don’t expect me to show mercy”.
“Look, you could negotiate about that, we all make mistakes”.
Leeches made a mocking motion of blah blah blah with her mouth, “They and you never understood, after world war 1 there was chaos in Europe, people needed someone full of promise, I fell for a lie, my father was a liar also, but no, you want to lock me in a cage for something I hardly had any control over, no my dear, I am not going to be locked up like an animal, your death and the death of this senator will be the first act in a, great shift in things“.
She chuckled to herself and moved away and said to the stone cyborg quietly, “No killing anyone Mr Cluvsun, do you understand? That was all bluster, I am indeed making a statement, but not the statement I told him”.
“Then what is all dis for den?
Said Cluvsun again in a way that was exposing the fact that he was maybe not the sharpest tool in the shed. “You and they will find out soon enough, just watch the prisoners, I have other things to attend to”.

A newspaper report obviously leaked by Leeches herself to the press, “Senator Albert Redrick and paragon hero Justice For All kidnapped by felon’s unknown , city told to be ready for radio and TV broadcast from the group of kidnappers, Senator Redrick is a known opponent of the freedom for heroes act and we can’t help but wonder whether some heroes were in on this plot, after all where were they when all this happened? Where was the hero security on this event? Were they all busy elsewhere or didn’t they care because of who this victim was? The press demand to know the answer to this and a few other pressing questions!

Later that day on TV and radio, a fuzzy picture of some 1950s sci fi film of a giant squid attacking a submarine showed itself and a woman in black makeup with pale skin and shadows moving around her like the tentacles of the squid that had been shown a second earlier, “People of paragon, you can blame Edward for this method, I know it will rile him so“.
She chuckled slightly, “Anyway, this was the only way to make myself known without someone getting to my message and warping it, straight from the horses mouth you might say, not that you would say I was a horse, or I would cut your head off, anyway moving on“.
She chuckled more almost like an excited school girl, “Now dear Paragon, the city that broke my little heart, I am giving you a message from the soul of the underbelly of the city you love, and the message is. You do not deserve heroes! The man I captured, one senator Redrick he wanted to end heroes, to make them illegal, so he should, if you let a man like this into your senate you really don‘t deserve heroes do you? No I think not, many will be happy when I kill this man, many will rejoice, I am doing a good thing no?
She smirked slightly before going on in a almost dreamy sounding voice, she was obviously enjoying hamming this up, “Now where am I holding them both the hero and the enemy of the heroes? Yes where indeed, well I shall tell you, where my dear Edward rests his hat, and where that despicable psycho made his mark and weakened your left over heroes, yes Kings Row my friends that’s where”. She chuckled again and the camera closed in, then she kissed the camera leaving a mark of some black oily substance on the lens before saying, “With love and kisses, with scars and bruises to my dear paragon, oh and I nearly forgot, happy voting, you know who’s not getting my vote“.
With that the American national anthem started playing as the end of the 1950‘s film showed the squid being set on fire.

Leeches moved away from the camera a totally different persona to the one she had shown was evident, “Now, with that hopefully they will think I’m a psycho”.
The Huntsman she spoke too seemed to think she was anyway and made a none committal grunt before saying, “What was the point of that? You have as good as sold us down the river to the Zig”.
“No I haven’t, I have timed this to perfection you see. Most the heroes are either still in the post zombie Halloween recovery state, tied up in that strange business with some odd robots or on some strange venture in some portal, no one will come, and I shall have such a show for the public by the time I’m done, I trust the pit is ready?
“Yeah if you can call it a pit”.
“It will serve, so is Cluvsun still watching the prisoners?
“Yes, and he hasn’t made a move to touch them, he seems to have calmed down somewhat”.
“Yes I do hope he keeps his cool, anyway have he and the prisoners been moved to that office block and have your men changed their uniforms into something less Arachnos like as pre planned?
“Yes, everything’s been done to look like this is some thug ran thing, the only one that knows any different is well, that Justice For All clown”.
“Good right, prepare to start phase two of the plan, oh and by the way, your spec ops have so far Impressed me, don’t botch things now, understood?
“Yes, but we aren’t doing it for you, we are doing it for lord Recluse”.
“Of course, of course, now move out someone may be tracking the transmission to here, I have something waiting if they do”.
That said she vomited up a black substance on a nearby wall and seemed to sink right into it emerging on the other side and heading for a street as large bat like wings burst out of her back and she flew away. The huntsman sent a signal to his men to begging phase two of this whole thing and made his way out heading for a fire door, walking passed the tied up news crew he had stolen the equipment from, he stopped as he did so though a idea crossing his mind. Ah leverage, Leeches might be willing to take risks but he wasn’t and he nodded to two of his men, “Bring the hostages with us, we can always use a meat shield in case the police try anything”.

((Again, sorry for how long that was))

I never made it past the gold brickers *shakes fist* I shall be slaughtering them most vigerously for their actions in derailing my plot to be ruler of the world! I would Just like to thank everyone who made this event and made it fun, I might have lost but it was worth it to be part of a cool and fun community event.

The best advice is don't hold back, let people know what your charecters like right away. Then judging on responses you can tell weather it's the right char for the enviroment.

((I would be interested in giving it a go Countess Leeches level 50 BOTS/TA MM will immob for cookies!))

"Countess leeches, its sounds like a good sporting event. *strange static sounds as the message ends*

Leeches nodded back at the buisiness man politely yet slowly, like she was studying him, he was a brave one alright. She wondered idly if that was with a reason, it probably was she decided and sipped on her own drink. The shadow stuff around her though seemed to stay alert.

Leeches watched the new comer as she slowly sat on a bar stool after paying for a drink, she smirked slighlty. Either this one was very confident or totally unaware of his situation, or of course he had a secret. The shadow stuff around her moved almost like feelers, like it too was tasting the air and waiting for something to happen. This betrayed the fact that Leeches was keeping her eye on things despite looking mildly bored and uninterested in the matter.

She had saw someone leave, she could sense a supernatural vampire presence, she had no love for such breeds so stayed away for a moment before deciding to see what this place was. Uusally known as Countess Leeches, today she decided Lady Leeches would do, after all her title was more a mockery of the old order. She didn't want to be put into competition with anyone anyway, it had been a long day. Two Arachnos soldiers were with her acting as bodyguards. She didn't like being reminded of her attachment to the spiders, and knew they would be killed if they entered the bar. So to avoid tiresome paper work she dismissed them with a nod and walked into the bar with her cape flowing behind her.

Her black eyes scanned everyone in the bar and the shadow stuff of her body seeped around her like a black cloud, she hped this was indication enough she had some supernaatural elements to her being. She sniffed the air, a strange mix of creatures, she looked at Ed for a moment, then slowly walked to the bar, she smiled slightly rows of sharp teeth showing for a second before she spoke, "Ice water please".
She said politely in a strange echoy voice that seemed to come from her mind more than her mouth.
