This City Never Sleeps at Night

All bios have been approved and linked to. Coke a Cools shall be paired together.

Any ideas on where we should begin, then?

I would just post pretending you were at the meeting and go from there. Either starting right at the mansion or somewhere nearby talking about your assignment or something.

A ranged DPS paired with a melee DPS, sounds good.

Wouldn't happen to be room for one more here would there?

All are welcome. All are welcome.

Well in that case

Name: Timothy Chanter

Age: 22

Quote:"I mean really, who do you think made that 'Infinity+1 Epic Indestructible Sword Of The Most Heroic Hero Of The Gods'? Honestly!"
.
Appearance/ typical apparel: Tim is a tall skinny gut who is usually found wearing a beige trenchcoat and a black knit cap, no matter the weather.  He also carries a plain straight oak quarterstaff with plain silver caps which he uses as a walking stick
.
Weapons/unusual equipment/gear:Almost all the gear he carries is stowed in and around his coat, invisible to the casual observer.
....Staff: is enchanted lightghtness and strength, and with a whispered keyword sheds light like a lamp from one of the caps.
....Coat: has numerous protection enchantments on it, including resistance to the elements, piercing damage , slashing damage, bludgeoning damage and a climate control system.  The pockets on his coat also  seem to carry more than they really should.
....Knit Cap: gives him enhanced senses, noise reduction/protection, airborne particle protection, and night vision. The cap also has similar protections on it as the coat, and also the ability to produce several minor glamers, one where he is wearing a Trilby and a suit and is not carrying a staff, one where he is in jeans and a t-shirt and also not holding his staff, and one where-*COUGH COUGH* AHEM, moving on. 
....M1911: has been enchanted with a clip 4x the  capacity of normal without any extra space.    
....Runes: 1in balsa wood squares with words written on them that have been enchanted with instant or temporary effects that activate when they are snapped in half
........4 that produce a fly effect for 30 minutes labeled "fly"
........6 that produce a flamethrower effect for five seconds labeled "flamethrower"
........8 that produce a light effect at the place it was broken labeled "light",
........3 that, when broken, record everything that happens within a four foot radius for two minutes and loops that for thirty minutes or until cancelled with a keyword labeled "idling"
........12 labeled "push" that produce a variable force push with a maximum output of a single blast of getting tackled by a linebacker with more duration for less force
         among others.
.
skills: He doesn't have any particular skills outside basic training, he's a decent shot with his pistol and knows how to use his staff in melee.
.
magical ability: Tim is an Enchanter. He has the ability to enchant objects with various effects.
Now, now, now, I know what you're thinking, HOLY SHIT THAT'S SO POWRFULOMGWTF ASDFASDGFADSFGHFDDF!!!11!1!!1111
Well calm down. The way this enchantment works is somewhat in the arcane side of magic.  Basically he writes down a diagram which describes how the enchantment works, this can take anywhere from several hours to several weeks depending on the complexity of the effect and the complexity of the item.  (He had to make a separate, distinct "bigger on the inside" digram tailored for each pocket of his coat). Then when he has the diagram how he wants it, he sits down with the diagram and the item and applies the magical effect.  This application process is also lengthy(takes an hour to complete one "light" rune to to 6 months of working at least 4 hours a day just to give his jacket the physical protections from damage) and must be done in one sitting, while he is enchanting he falls into a trance until that diagram is complete. The diagrams are not destroyed by the application process, and he keeps the ones he has created in a filing cabinet and backed up on his computer and phone.

New Rule:

5) Anyone wearing a trench coat is a flasher until proven otherwise.

Do to the ever increasing size of this RP I'm going to say no more new secondary characters without special approval. Again I would like to emphasis that both Teresa and Hannah are NPCs, the difference being they only exist in the presence of actual player characters. That still gives us 16 characters, and two more on the way.

I will link to the above bio eventually.

Here we go then. Submitted and official.

Name: Maxton Vaughn

Age: 27

Appearance/ typical apparel: Maxton stands to a measly height of 5'4", and other Caucasian men tower over him. He weighs in at an underwhelming 115 lbs. Typically, he sports short, brown hair which he stylistically leaves looking unkempt, and his eye color is somewhere along the lines of hazel, leaning more towards green. In regards to his apparel, Maxton generally wears dark, baggy sweatshirts and sweatpants, along with a pair of monochromatic walking shoes. He also usually carries around a brown leather drawstring backpack for carrying things.

Weapons/unusual equipment/gear: Maxton prefers to travel light, and usually carries around a set of acupuncture needles, as well as some assorted lightweight medical equipment. He is also rarely caught without snacks. As for weapons, he carries a Walther PPQ, which he keeps in case of emergency.

Skills: Maxton is a skilled doctor and acupuncturist. He specializes in on-the-go wound treatment, and using his acupuncture to numb or dull pain. His training in acupuncture also serves as an excellent way to take down at least vaguely humanoid opponents, but only serve to incapacitate. He is also pretty mobile, and is able to squeeze into tighter spots than most on account of his small stature.

Magical Ability: Maxton has the power of elevated dexterity, and is, for short periods of time, able to greatly increase the speed and stability of his arms and hands. Generally, this is put to use to perform quick and efficient patch-up jobs and surgeries while out in the field. Normally, the increased speed at which Maxton is able to work would cause excruciating pain to the recipient of treatment, but as mentioned above, Maxton is able to use his acupuncture skills to numb or dull pain. Maxton's elevated dexterity can also be used to amplify the efficacy of his acupuncture attacks in combat, though generally he reserves his power in case one of his comrades is injured.
It is, however, dangerous for Maxton to use this power while under extreme pressure or stress, and when used in such situations, mostly results in botched jobs that will at least require additional treatment down the line.

Weaknesses: Aside from being small and frail, Maxton leaves a lot to be desired in combat. The extent of his traditional melee combat ability is being able to throw a sucker-punch that could maybe catch somebody off guard and buy enough time for him to flee, almost explicitly forcing him into using his acupuncture when in close range. As for ranged combat, Maxton has fairly stable hands which provide accuracy while shooting, but due to his physical weakness, the recoil from prolonged firing takes a pretty heavy toll on his accuracy, leaving him far less useful than others.
While generally being pretty smart, Maxton is fairly inept when it comes to technology and has a difficult time getting anything done without somebody constantly walking him through it.

History: Unremarkable childhood, witch combat training went poorly but he had a knack for patching other trainees up, so he was sent off to be trained as a doctor.

sorry, this post is taking longer than it should. It should be up tomorrow.

Cruddy post to keep the plot moving. Berry, I figure the girls could have a quick discussion between classes that ultimately leads them to meet up for lunch (after talking schedules and stuff). If you PM me we can do a collab, or like a semi collab. I'll just tell you how Hannah would respond. Mostly with words but bits of body language thrown in too. I won't do the full blown shifting perspective thing like I did with Noel most likely though, due to a lack of time.

Also the two latest characters can partner together to keep things simple.

Pair listing for those interested.

Charles and Judith
Celeste and Isaac
T-Rex and YSR
Aya and Kuruk
Crow and Jessie
Cameron and Aleksandr
Timothy and Maxton

Currently unassigned we have

The twins, William, Dander, and Hannah. The twins are currently working with Teressa but that's just a temporary thing.

Been meaning to ask Drum, what exactly kind of ghost do you want them to be finding? A violent one, just a wandering lost one, etc. And are there any limitations on what I can do during lunch time?

The ghost thing is up to you.

Not sure what you mean by the second question. School rules will be enforced though.

Like can I not go and appease the spirits during this time? (And give me some basic school rules, I went to a private school)

I suppose we could. Generally you need permission to roam the halls.

Would it really be a great idea to go ghost hunting during school hours though? Like what if you have to fire your gun? Do you really want everyone to hear that?

As someone who goes to public high school, not being allowed doesn`t stop kids from roaming halls and skipping classes.  There are ways.

Edit: As a replay to something Drum mentoid in chat. Danners didn`t make to his first class on purpose. He`s skipping thought the post made it clear. He may get caught but he really doesn`t care atm. He`ll probably make his way to his next few classes though.

But she should be prepared to get caught.

What about Issac. Has he been roaming the halls too then?

ok, this isnt really going anywhere, and will has nothing to do.

Im intending to send him to the school. Does anyone object? Ive got a good reason for him to be there.

Hey school group, I'm giving you two weeks to wrap things up. You can decide to come back at night for the ghost if you have to, but deal with the new recruits and get us to the end of the day so we can get things moving. Make it a half day and everyone gets out after lunch because of a teacher in service we all forgot about until now if you have to.

That being said, people outside of that group can still post. Only Charles and Judith have really exhausted there actions until nightfall. The others can interact more, make plans or whatever. Kuruk and Aya were going to scout out the building I think for example. Mort and Mist will be written out of the story if they fail to post by the time the rest of us are ready.

Waiting for Kinz.

If I don't get a chance to post this weekend Rip has bunny rights. I'll try but no guarantees.

Since no one has posted I'm giving this thing a kick in the pants this weekend.

All hell is going to break lose and you are all to blame.

I do need to PM Vulk something though.
