In an 1800s-themed fantasy world that's forgotten its roots, you hunt undead, aberrations, monsters of all sorts. The public has to be kept in the dark, but whether under contract or going by your gut, you do everything in your power to keep them safe - whether they know it or not.
I realized that I never wrote anything about it, partly because I don't like writing accents, but I envision Racine as having a slight French accent (and if you're alright, I'd use French for Elvish).
Just a tiny bit of character color.
Showing a spectacular lack of common sense, splitting! I believe that Caedus and Frank are taking the girls home, while I'd try to track the Pigtown Kings before they hide away, but only if I'm not alone: both Lala and Doc are good at stealth and utility, I'd like to have them. However, if they both want to go home, I'll tag along.

I'm willing to skulk around with Racine and I don't mind splitting the party - makes things far more exciting and gives the DM a chance for hijinks. Since you had only asked Lala in character, I didn't want to intrude if you wanted a two-person party.
So now the question is: do we want to warn Beth about the things that go bump in the night, or do we risk her getting caught in something that could get her horribly mangled?
I'm for terrifying her with the truth.

That just shows her Frank can do cool s+&~ as he is trying to sleep with her. I'm sure this would not be the first time Frank has done stuff. Now she will either think it's cool or be freaked out. Sam would talk about having psychic powers back in whatever season it was he had them but not about drinking the demon blood to keep them :)
Okay, I haven't read the gameplay thread yet, but I have to ask: do you really want Beth to sleep with you? Obviously, I'm not going to role-play that or anything, but if I think it's appropriate, do you actually want her to proposition you and then fade to black? I don't want to do something weird thinking that you actually wanted me to, only for everyone to get weirded out by it.

LOL
Personally, it would take this going all manga with tentacled sexual beasts and Beth in a school-girl dress for me to get weirded out. :) Otherwise, roll with it as far as you guys are comfortable.

Sure, I don't want to RP it out either, but I think you get where I'm going with Frank. Thinks a lot like Dean in supernatural. He is a young guy just looking to live life to it's fullest as he suspects he will die young and no telling when so why not take every opportunity to have fun.
But yea everything happening off scene is the way to go. I was going to PM you and let you know Frank was going to proposition her as the RP for the night slowed down.
From my point of view, the problem is that Dean goes around with Sam, Frank's going around with three (four if Lalavonrei resurfaces) guys with a radically different attitude, so don't be surprised if you antagonize them.
Frank's surely antagonized Racine with his egotistical attitude, since she's inspired more by the Dresden Files than by Supernatural.
I didn't want to force things, I was leaving a couple of days for others to speak. I believe that the best idea is me and long going in from the back, watching windows and such, Frank and Caedus going in to get Timmy (possibly without causing his mother a heart attack, provided she's alive)

splitting up is fine, I too was giving the others time. Looks like me and Racine are the active posters so we should keep things moving while the GM is active Never want the GM to wait long and loose interest. :)

Big job interview this afternoon, I may not post much today. I am employed so no pressure there but this would be a pretty big promotion. Just giving a heads up as I try and post more when in combat like this. Visited a friend in the hospital last night recovering from a successful surgery and prepped for interview or I would have checked in. Thanks.

Hey guys. Leaving Thursday for vacation. Will be back on the 19th. Going camping. Don't expect to post any as there is no service. Bot me as needed. Thanks.
It's okay, Frank. The adventure is pretty much, well, over, with my last post being about as close to a "they lived happily ever after" as this game is likely to get. So...
If anyone is interested in continuing the game, let me know so I can prepare, because as I said, there isn't much I have left - nothing besides RP with Cass and co. If not, no hard feelings. It took awhile to get to the end and there were ups and downs (largely as a result of me not posting much in the beginning), but I had fun and hope everyone else did too (even if you're done altogether).
It was fun having you, Caedus. Take care, and good luck with everything. You will be missed.
I think this brings us down to 3 characters of level 6? It's not huge, and AFAIK, the team lacks healing (except via potions). I can always adjust combats, so unless any one wants me to, I don't think I'll recruit.
Sorry about the delay! Very busy weekend. Will post in a few hours after I've started my day, and then should be back to regular postings. Was just that one weekend.
