Our Eternal Violence Discussion: South City

[Kazuya]

I'll probably do something off to the side. I'll hunt down Jayd and maybe do some stealth exercise with him. other than that. food. shower. sleep.

[Victoria]

Posted, included Jayd.

[Jesper]

Writing now. It'll mostly involve Victoria, but others might make a brief cameo.

[Kazuya]

i haven't started writing yet, so if you want to include me, feel free.

[Juno]

Neither have I, and I won't until later on tomorrow, so ditto.

[Orion]

Time for Orion to start writing a post.

[Victoria]

Awesome. You know, I think it's funny how Vic and Orion had some bonding moments and now...they barely even look at each other xD. I'm gonna post sometime soon.

[Orion]

We should do some posting together.

Btw, I've been interrupted by housemates, so my posting is on hold. What I've written doesn't involve anyone so it won't matter if people post.

[Victoria]

Yes, we should. Maybe after you post I will, I have an early morning.

[Juno]

Yeah, Juno has previously met Kaden, Orion, and Victoria. Kaden he's known for a while, Orion he talked with during Kill Town, and he vaguely remembers Vic from Space Battles - Kill Town.

EDIT: And Kazuya. He knows Kazuya from Kill Town, too.

[Juno]

I posted! Not my best, but it works.

For clarification purposes, yes, Phebe has quit Team Delta, and is effectively no longer in the saga.

[Kaden]

Writing up a post.

The intent is to have use moving into the mission by the end of it.

[Kaden]

Ok... so. My post got delayed.

No one should wait for me, though. What I have should work regardless of what someone else posts.

[Kaden]

I'll have a post up within the next hour.

[Kaden]

Aaaaand posted. It actually ended up getting cut short (lawl), so my apologies to Juno. There was more planned there, but I just didn't have time.

Anyway, it directly involves everyone and, hopefully, we can move on to the actual mission in short order. If I did anything weird/wrong with anyone's character, please let me know.

EDIT: Quadruple post ftw.

[Kazuya]

Just wanna put this out here, because I know i was rather vague. Kaz doesn't 'hate' Jayd, but rather thinks of him as an idiot. Eventually, I would like to have her warm up to him, and accept him as a leader, so yay subplots?

[Kaden]

Great post, Kaz.

Could you give us some info on Gab, though? Can he fire a gun? Does he have any combat training? Does he have any "abilities" he can use? What's his take on the current party?

[Victoria]

Had some RL stuff...I'll post tonight when I get a chance.

[Kazuya]

Great post, Kaz.

Could you give us some info on Gab, though? Can he fire a gun? Does he have any combat training? Does he have any "abilities" he can use? What's his take on the current party?

I'm revealing more of Gabriel as I write him, so this is just a list of what he has so far (And abilities thrown in for future use)

He has a thirty year contract with them, and is halfway through it. He's a soldier-for-hire, as well as a chieftain for his people, the Unaki. He had served their military and gone through their bootcamp before fifteen years ago, when his contract started and when his father was still alive, allowing him to leave his people in order to fulfill duties without leaving them alone, with his father in charge.

While the vast majority of his people are traditional and keep away from the cities and modernities, Gabriel has immersed himself in the world around him to keep up on things that could affect his people. He's adopted some customs of modern civilization, such as water/electricity, and keeping a home that is comparable to middle-class homes we know today.



1) Yes, he has gun training, as per the requirements set fourth by his contract with South City.

2) Yes, he has combat training, as stated above. However, refreshers, such as the training we've just received, are necessary every once in a while to refresh his skill.

3) So far, his abilities are:

• Shapeshift : He can change into a crow and a wolf, but it is unknown at this time if he can do more. Those are his totem animals, so they are more easily shifted into.
  
• Telepathy: Before the technique manifested itself in Kazuya, he was prepared to teach her this, himself. But now that she knows it, all he can do now is help her control it.
  
• Flight: He flies. Like superman.
  
• Ki Control: He doesn't shoot balls of ki, or at least, not that it has been seen, but it can be seen as an 'aura' when angry or excited. Not much use yet, but if there's a really awesome reason to use it otherwise, it's not discounted as simply a neat trick.
  
• Stealth: He's pretty good at blending in or disappearing altogether, which was part of the reason why South City's governor at the time was so apt to have him join forces, for reconnaissance missions and his ability to be unseen when times called for it.
  
  

I'd like to have him pick up other abilities without becoming OP, but right now, these seem to do the trick.

As far as his take on the group, he's neutral for the most part. He thinks that there is potential in all the recruits, and that their strengths combined make them a more powerful weapon than singularly. The only thing that really bothers him is when they bicker and act more as individuals with their own vendetta than working towards the common cause, however, since this group is a newly forged team, he understands that it would take time for them to realize that they aren't just one person in a mass of other people, but a unit comprised of these individuals, so he is patient. For now.

@Victoria: God I want french fries. So very bad right now.
