News you can use

I would like James' female character to be the older sister of Rob's 12 year old robot maker. Rob this would make the general your father as well, but it would help explain your access to materials to make a robot.

Butch's Actor/stuntman/FISTER and Russ' UFC fighting teleporting characters have a bit of history. Originally UFC guy was a villian in one of the fister's action movies. During the shoot however the two buddies became famous when stopping a bank robbery in downtown LA. Since then the public has had an insatiable demand for movies with the pair, their latest being shot in the famed area 51 in Nevada. The movie is a quickly written, poorly conceived piece of trash and the two of you soon found yourselves bored with the long hours waiting for blue screen production. After spending some time partying with a beautiful, athletic young woman (James' character), the two movie action heroes agreed to accompany her into the desert where the "real" secrets were kept.

The Seven Sentence Character

Link to the pdf. Click the title of the post.

Adam Worth

Adam Worth *36 year old male, 180 lb., 5’ 9” Blue eyes, Brown hair
To say Adam is a hard read would be an understatement, aside from his long hair he could be any professional in any city in any science industry. Most would say he was well traveled, cultured and resourceful. Adam values himself and can’t help coercing others into valuing him as well. Adam approaches social situations with cat-like curiosity, he must know what motivates others. Narrow truths and innuendo are like verbal fencing for Adam. Adam has an annoying habit of not being around to answer for himself.

2057

So what's happened in the next 50 years?

1. There is a new Egyptian empire that rules the middle east. The resolution of what was called the Middle Earth war, Egypt now holds sway over a vast array of land full of now worthless oil. The Middle Earth war ended 10 years ago, but the development of item two has lead to new dangerous rumblings from this new world power.

2. The Clausius Engine: People no longer drive cars. They utilize vehicles that are called Entropies. You would own an Entropy. Owning such a vehicle is a sign of wealth and status. Public transportation is now the norm, with all vehicles utilizing this engine which provides its own energy and puts out 0% emissions. The Clausius engine is a worldwide phenomenon, its limitless energy resource has lead to the end of various wars as well as the virtual elimination of hunger. The Clausius Engine was developed seven years ago by a consortium of scientist from all over the world, its patent was given freely by their charter to the world community.

3. India. Only half of India is now inhabitable, its population cut by 75% between radiation poisoning and disease. Thirty years ago war erupted between the former Pakistan and India which lead to a nuclear exchange that threatened the entire world. China now rules over the inhabitable areas of those two nations.

4. China: Twenty-nine years ago, communism fell in China. They have returned to their roots of Empire, the Chinese Empire now controls the remains of India and Pakistan, The Koreas, Japan, and Thailand. Korea, Japan and Thailand were not conquered with military might but economic. The absorption of those countries into China's economic block soon brought each to heel under the new empire. Only Japan retains any sense of independence.

5. The United States now has 2 new states in its Union, Puerto Rico and Old Mexico. Old Mexico covers a large portion of the former northern portions of Mexico. This was a political solution to the immigration battles of the 2020's.

End of an Epic


Great game guys. I'll admit there were some surprises, but all was played BRILLIANTLY!

The Bones by the Shore


These bones are so very ancient they have begun to turn to powder. The little skeleton lies with one arm outstretched, its finger bones touching the wall of darkness before you. Though the bones are crumbling, it is still possible to discern the identity of the creature they belong to. After all, you have seen such skeletons many times in the past.

These are the bones of a goblin.

Tuvellan the Firecrowned


One angel, Tuvellan the Firecrowned, was certain that the Dark had been conscious all along and
was only now choosing to act. He was determined to make contact with the Dark and persuade it to withdraw. He insisted that the Dark was perhaps not evil but merely a necessary part of the Universe. Perhaps it could be spoken with, reasoned with. Tuvellan departed Heaven on a quest to find the conscious core of the Dark and speak to it. That was two centuries ago; he has not been seen or heard of since.

Seraph of the Profane
Of all the powers of evil, none is so strong or so steeped in misery as that which was once a force for good. When a paladin turns to the path of darkness, he becomes a blackguard. When an angel falls from grace and embraces evil, it may become a seraph of the profane. Some sages say that these creatures do not, cannot exist. Celestial powers are good by definition. They are emanations of the upper planes, and as such they can no more change their natures than a compass can refuse to point north. Other scholars, who have uncovered shards of forbidden history and deciphered curious archaic accounts from lost civilisations, know that this is untrue. All things can change.

The dark angel glares at you. ‘You are cancers within the womb of night. I am the right hand of the void. I am the anointed of the new dispensation. Lo, I obliterate you; I cast you down
from the firmament into the Pit, there to perish as the sparks that fade into the black! Let it begin now!’

Lady Ajav’Andu of House Ormil


Lady Ajav’Andu is the member of the Ennead in charge of religious rituals and communal worship. Lady Ashgrave is the titular head of all drow churches and she alone may rule on matters of doctrine, but Ajav’Andu has the executive office of supervising worship and officiating at ceremonies. She has the title of Supreme Hierophant. Her House, Ormil, supplies the drow community with more priestesses than any other House.
Lady Ajav’Andu is withered by age. Her hair is long gone, as are most of her teeth. She wears a ceremonial wig of fine silver chains that look nothing like hair. Her actual age is unknown but there are reliable accounts of her presence at the first attack on Shallenoi when the Drow Wars began. Lady Ashgrave fears her and her alone of all other drow. Indeed, Ashgrave governs only with Ajav’Andu’s consent, and that is only because she does not want the job herself.
Some of the younger drow, drawing wild conclusions from her obvious old age, believe that she is a genuine immortal and cannot be killed.

Ennead Dossier: Lady Zaura of House Tzummu


Lady Zaura is the mentally unbalanced captain of the tunnel
riders, nightmare-riding drow who patrol the outer reaches of
their underground realm. She is insanely xenophobic, hating all
creatures that are not drow. To her the drow are the unquestioned
master race. It is not a matter of scripture or prophecy but of
self-evident fact.
Her House has only been part of the ruling clans of the Ennead
since the exile of the disgraced House Arakh.
Zaura is in awe of the Huntress Cestine, whom she sees as a folk
hero come back to life. She is also completely besotted with
the Perfected, the paragon drow created as the mate of She. If
anything harms or worse, kills him (apart from She), she goes
on a berserk crusade to slay the person responsible, cutting down
anything that gets in her way.
Zaura is wild-eyed and beautiful, at least by elven standards, with
high cheekbones and a narrow nose. She is often held up as an
example of drow perfection. However, even her fellow drow find
her racism a little extreme. Other creatures have to be allowed
to exist or else the drow will have nobody to enslave; one cannot
simply wipe them all out.

Ennead Dossier: Lord Daivon of House Chuchubar


Lord Daivon is a rarity among drow: a follower of the druid path. He likes to wander alone through the dank underworld, communing with the spiders and sleeping with the lichen for a
bed.
House Chuchubar has always been the house most associated with fungus farming and the gathering of rare intoxicating roots. Strangely, the lower castes of House Chuchubar are the most reviled of all, as they are mere peasant farmers, while the upper castes are regarded as the noblest of all, as they control the supplies of food, herbal intoxicants and liquor. Lord Daivon’s preferred wild shape is that of a purple worm, as it is appropriate for his tunnel environment.
Daivon has low jowls and bloodshot eyes, a result of his frequent indulgence in his House’s produce. His hair is a mess and his garments are often dirty, as he often spends the night sleeping on the bare floor of a cavern.

Enndead Dossier: Lady Aisha of House Shi’arni


Lady Aisha is one of life’s followers. She lives in the shadow of Lady
Ashgrave and is wholly devoted to her. It is clear to any observer
that Aisha is hopelessly in love but unable to act on it. Lady
Ashgrave sees this devotion as that of a faithful hound, something
of which she can make use. She is occasionally deliberately cruel
to Aisha, mocking her incompetence or stupidity, knowing that
this only serves to fuel her devotion. If Aisha is ever in combat at
the same time as Lady Ashgrave, she uses all the protective magic
in her power to keep her mistress from harm, even if she has to kill
herself in the process. Lady Aisha keeps her hair in a tight braid
and bears a platinum spider ornament on her forehead, a sign of
her faith that other drow find mawkish and rather embarrassing.
They mock her about it behind her back.

Ennead Dossier: Lady Vel’Azrit of House Tzanvine


Lady Vel’Azrit is the Ennead’s poison mistress, collecting and
brewing venom for the nobility. She reached her position in
her own House by disposing of all the rival claimants. She is
an espionage specialist and serves as the head of Ashgrave’s
secret police, making sure that crimes of disloyalty are publicly
punished. The Lady is young by drow standards, resembling a
girl of eighteen, and keeps her silver hair shaved short. She has
a tattoo of a snake winding around the entire length of her body
from her right foot to her left hand.

Ennead Dossier: Lord Vesperlean of House Maugheeth


Lord Vesperlean is silent most of the time, which is why Lady Ashgrave favours him. He speaks only when there is something important to say and insists that everyone else pay attention when he does. He is easily offended; the most infuriating thing anyone can do to him is to ignore his advice or take him lightly. He is tall for a drow and rake-thin. His hair has mostly fallen out, leaving
straggly white wisps around a shiny bald scalp.

Ennead Dossier: Lady Ashgrave of House Jar’Allin


Lady Ashgrave rules the Ennead with an authority tempered over
five centuries. Her hair is iron-grey and her expression completely
merciless. She has stared down demons and endured battle
wounds that would cause a common soldier to faint, talking
calmly with her surgeons as they stitched her body shut. Since
the death of her favorite concubine Tomocho in the Drow War
before last, she has never been seen to smile. She keeps his skull
in a glass cabinet like a holy relic. Privately she dreams that when
the World to Come is a reality, she will be reunited with him.
