Mandalay Bay Lobby - OOC Community

Just in case anyone hasn't seen it yet, thought I'd share it here (don't have everyone on FB): https://www.facebook.com/InsaneJournal/posts/10155695700419740

So, I have a 10th. Let's not discuss my whole 'THIS IS NOT MEANT TO BE A GOAL' thing, mostly because I also have an 11th character incoming. ANYWAY, ignoring my complete lack of self control, here we go:

The lucky number 10 is Julian Blackthorn, of The Shadowhunter Chronicles. He's 17, a Shadowhunter, would-be father to all of his younger siblings (none of whom are here, unfortunately), and parabatai to Emma Carstairs (shortsword).

Given that his PB doesn't have runes, please do just assume that he's got all those shiny black runes on his skin like the rest. His canon point is three pages from the end of the latest book, Lord of Shadows. So UNFORTUNATELY, he knows a lot of shit that the rest of his fellow Shadowhunters do not (sorry Izzy, Jace, Alec). He'll also really want to kill Sebastian, sorry Ashley! >.>

OH, AND - he'll be arriving in a bad way, like injured bad way. :D

K, somewhere in the last week, I added two more characters to my roster because I apparently have zero self-control here (I'm taking that as proof that I love the game so much). Anyway, I never intro'ed the seventh one, so I figured I'd kill two birds with one stone and intro both together. Here goes:

First is Thor (this journal), from the Marvel Cinematic Universe. He's got plenty of canon mates, so he'll be thrilled to see some again and glad to meet the new ones he doesn't know yet. After all, a whole year went by while he was in the Bifrost. He's from the end of Avengers: Age of Ultron, right after he destroyed Tony Stark's pristine lawn at the Avengers compound (that's how he rolls, yo).

Second is Alec Lightwood (vindex), from the Shadowhunter Chronicles. I gather by now that a lot of people have seen the show and while I do use the actor from the show, he is NOT from the show. He is from the books. He's a Nephilim, half angel and half human, and a Shadowhunter. He protects the normal world (also known as mundane world) from the Shadow World and anything that wants to do it harm, especially the demons. He has his adopted son, Max, with him (also known as Blueberry because, well, the toddler is bright blue). His canon point is Lord of Shadows, Chapter 26 (with a bit of creative license used).

And if you need a reminder of my other six and would like to plot or do anything with them, here they are:

Anders (runaway) | Dragon Age (#2)
Cassian Andor (insurgent) | Star Wars
Bucky Barnes (serzhant) | MCU
Elijah Mikaelson (honourable) | The Originals
Robbie Reyes (ghostrider) | MCU (AoS)
Jaye Shepard (heroic) | Mass Effect

I also apologise in advance for being slow, especially with any log/scene tagging (if you've got scenes with me). My dad's been diagnosed with sciatica and he can barely walk, let alone drive or take the dogs out for their walks or pretty much do anything other than sit down. I've picked up all of his responsibilities, which include cooking and driving and walking the dogs (on top of going to work and gym and WoW, etc) so everything's just a bit bonkers and it's difficult to find any time where I'm left alone for long enough to properly write other than tagging non-scene things. Hopefully everything improves soon.

Nox ♥♥

k so the SSV Normandy SR-2, Shepard's spaceship from Mass Effect, is now in-game. It's 200m long, so it's basically going to be impossible to hide (compared to the Milano)! Its arrival has placed it HERE, in the large and open space directly opposite the Mandalay Bay. Please just assume those gigantic poles and any other debris are not there, and be aware that the Normandy takes up that entire space (it's parked at an angle so that it fits) so it'll be very noticeable.

THIS is what the Normandy looks like. Shepard will be finding it (or seeing it) very soon and will definitely be posting about it (after she stops her space son from potentially destroying the hotel). If anybody wants their characters to see inside it, you'll have to ask Shepard or one of her squad-mates very nicely, because there are security systems that keep any non-crew members out. Any questions/anything else, please feel free to ask and I'll answer everything I can. Below are links to pictures of the Normandy's decks, with various information about them and points of note.

DECKS

Deck One: Captain's Cabin (Shepard only, or by invitation)
Deck Two: Combat Information Centre
Deck Three: Crew Deck
Deck Four: Engineering
Deck Five: Shuttle Bay & Access to Vegas

Hullo all! Nox here, with a fourth (and possibly final) character.

This is Robbie Reyes. He's a high school drop-out, likes to race cars (usually illegally), and works as a car mechanic. He keeps to himself and looks after his younger brother, Gabe, who is in a wheelchair. Oh, and he also happens to be possessed by a Spirit of Vengeance, which means he's also known as Ghost Rider. For anybody who's watched Agents of SHIELD, his canon point is the moment he traps his uncle in the demon core and falls into hell. But instead, he's in Las Vegas. Fun times!

I'm super excited to start playing him and will be putting up a network post as soon as I get back from saying goodbye to my general manager, who had his last day today. :( Also, plots?! :D

Nox here, bringing in a fourth character. Commander Shepard of Mass Effect!

She's from the last few missions of Mass Effect 3, which means she was hip-deep in Reapers and their minions, but she'll handle this new situation as best she can. She'll be sad not to see any of her squad mates here (yet -puppy eyes-) but hopefully she'll make new friends! :D

Hullo all! My name is Nox, I was enabled by Rebecca and Katy, and I'm bringing you three fine gentlemen:

HK-47 (this journal), from the Star Wars universe, is otherwise known as Revan's personal assassin droid. He's about 318 years old because he never seems to just die, but always figures out a way to come back because he has to find his master. He's got a surprising amount of personality for a droid, especially because memory wipes have never stuck, and he has a general opinion of disdain when it comes to organic species (which he refers to as meatbags). Revan's the only one who can keep HK under some sort of control when it comes to his assassination protocols but that doesn't mean HK won't comment on anything and everything he sees.

Cassian Andor (insurgent), from Star Wars: Rogue One, is fresh from the beaches of Scarif and wants to know what the hell is going on. I won't go into detail about his canon point in case anybody has not seen the movie yet but suffice to say, he is very confused and suspicious and would like some answers now, thank you very much.

Anders (runaway), from the Dragon Age universe, is a mage, Grey Warden and lover of cats that people keep taking away from him for stupid reasons. He's from after the end of Dragon Age 2, so he's avoiding templars and just about everybody that isn't a mage (or isn't Hawke and co) because of bad decisions that he made. The modern world will thoroughly confuse him but he'll get used to it all eventually. He's also a skilled healer, both with and without magic, so hopefully he'll find his niche after a while. Edit: I forgot 'cause I'm an idiot but Anders is happily with Hawke, yet could still use more awesome people in his life.

I'm reachable via the contact pages on the characters' journals or via my email at digitalis.nox@gmail.com. I'm mostly at the computer if I am not a) at work or b) asleep, and hopefully my bloody phone will get fixed soon so that I can be reachable when I'm not sitting at the computer.
