Hi! I wrote a story for one of my characters, and I thought I'd share it with everyone. It is pretty cool if I don't say so myself. It is kind of long, but it is worth the read! Especially if you like Ghost Widow. It has a bit of everything....action, suspense and a bit of comedy!
One quick note about how its written: Obviously, the quoted parts are where the character is talking. After they talk I put a parenthesis to show who it was that was talking. There are only three people who talk, so after they first speak their names' are abbreviated to save space. (A is Alexsys, G.W is Ghost Widow)
Also, if there are two parenthesis it means that something is happening. For example: ((Explosion!))
Anyways, here it is- the origin of Alexsys.
Dr. Alexis S. Kitsune was a resident Hematologist in Tokyo, Japan. For years she balanced work, friends and hobbies like everyone else. She was smart, and she took pride in her line of work. One night Alexis was working late, studying a particularly complex and puzzling blood specimen that had been troubling her for the past few days. Tired and fatigued from working her 16 hour shift, Alexis made a mistake that would change her life forever. As she was rising from her microscope, she accidentally knocked over the tray which had been holding the blood specimen she was working on. Normally, mere skin contact with blood has no harmful effects- but this blood was different. As it hit her skin, it began sinking into her, eventually reaching her own bloodstream. As the two fused, Alexis was overcome with an irresistible urge to consume blood. Being in a laboratory, this was not in short supply. In a violent rage, she grabbed and consumed every vial of blood within the area. Minutes later, she passed out. These events took place on June 6th, 1866. (6/6/66)
"Wh- Where am I?" (Alexis)
"Home my dear, home." (Unknown Voice)
((footsteps))
((figure steps out of the shadows))
"Tell me, how does it feel to draw breath again....after 141 years?" (Ghost Widow)
"What are you talking about!? Who are you, Why am I here, What happened t---" (A)
"Yes.....you remember now, don't you? You remember what happened all those years ago. Good, I was hopeful that we were able to retain that part of your memory." (G.W)
"No, no, no, no, no! This can't be real! This is all a dream! That never happened!" (A)
"Calm your mind, you know it to be true. This is no use in denying your fate." (G.W)
"My.....fate?" (A)
"As you know, you are a Vampire. However, before Lord Recluse rescued you, this was all you were. You were fated to die a harsh death. Recluse has taken you in, and with my help we have made you much more than a standard Vampire. Using Recluse's advanced technologies, and my mystical powers-- as well as your own vampiric blood-- we have transformed you into a Cybernetic Vampire." (G.W)
"A Cybernetic Vampire?" (A)
"Your blood is filled with nanites-- or super computers, and your skin is coated with the most advanced metals in the world. The nanites in your blood are directly linked to the AI chips found within the robots Recluse and I have designed specifically for you." (G.W)
"....Robots?" (A)
"Yes, Robots. The most advanced the world has ever seen. You don't have to take my word for it though. Simply by thinking, you can summon them. Go on, give it a try." (G.W)
((The robot army faces Alexis, and gives a firm salute!))
"Ready to serve, Master Alexis!" (Robot Army, in unison)
"Excellent, the project was a success. Recluse will be most pleased." (G.W)
"This is.....amazing......." (A)
"Yes, it is, isn't it? However, do not think that we have done these things just for your pleasure. We have given you these powers, and you have duties to preform....For Recluse!" (G.W)
"What sort of duties? And hey- seeing as how I have an entire robot army at my command, whats to stop me from just killing you and doing whatever I want!?" (A)
((Ghost Widow laughs))
"Ha Ha Ha, foolish child. You cannot kill what is already dead." (G.W)
((Ghost Widow begins to fly toward Alexis, passing through the robots like a.....well, Ghost))
"You.....you're not human!" (A)
"Indeed, I lost my humanity years ago. As have you. However, there is something you should know about your new body. Since Recluse and I created you-- to some extent, we have taken certain......precautions to prevent outbursts like the one you were contemplating. If you ever attack Me, Recluse or any of his personal bodyguards the nanites in your body will run what we call, The Black Program. Essentially, you will die instantly. And no- your vampiric immortality cannot prevent this death, we have made sure of that."
(G.W)
"I see....I guess I have no choice but to embrace my fate and preform my duties." (A)
"That is wise. Rest assured, if you preform well there will be a great future for you at Arachnos. Another thing that should be mentioned before we let you go; As far as the public is concerned, Arachnos has nothing to do with your powers or creation. This means that, yes- Arachnos soldiers will attack you on sight like any other villain, and you can expect no aid from Recluse, Me, or any of his other personal bodyguards in the public eye. Recluse will determine if you shall receive aid in private, but learn not to depend on it. We may have created you, but it is up to you to make yourself in this City of Villains." (G.W)
You may have noticed that I spelled Alexis, the proper way instead of her actual character name. This is because she had yet to enter the Rogue Isles in the story, and has not changed her name yet.
Now I just need to find a way to fit this into the character bio screen in-game.
