Why did I depict Neo as a Technpriest Skaven?

Milbunk, dismiss everyone so you can have them explore Nexus.

Hmm I think I have a plan in mind I'll write it out a little later today but yeah I'll give you some freedom, you'll prolly be tagging along with someone as well since I don't think Downy would 100% right now but you can take the reign on where you wish to go essentially while he locates a base of operations.

Hmm, what is Medea going to do now that the people at the compound have shown that they're stronger than she'd expected...?

Well her plan was to just scout and create a distraction so at the moment nothing is quite out of her expectations. She's gonna stay quiet for the moment, prolly do something with Bloble's character once he's ready.

Oh and Daiki, consider this as a way to make up from before, but did you have a preference as to who Mordred's gonna go exploring with? Or would you rather I choose?

Considered joining in for a while, and with Moony making his move, I feel it is my time.


"An inexhaustible greed that takes and takes. Even with so much wealth, still you desire new treasures? …well, I do understand the feeling. In any case, my head is not worth even one penny. For you, even if you obtained my armor it wouldn’t be enough, but you’ll have to give up on that one, at least.  That said, this spear is necessary in our to fulfill my promise with you. Which means that all that’s left is this head. Go ahead and take it. — provided, of course, that you can."

Does the City have any police force?

It does, but I don't think it's particularly effective by default, especially against supernatural beings.

Considering the fact that PARIAH just slaughtered a family in their home and hasn't left the building... He's going to cause a bit of commotion.

In the RP itself at least, several posts (one of which I made) have alluded to the fact that the regular Police force usually ignores supernatural matters as much as the general populace does if they are able to.

In the way that they investigate such incidents, make vague statements about it, and most of the time shut things off with an excuse because either they're being told to, or they really can't do much against whatever the real cause is and it's best for everyone to ignore it.

Of course, the super cops are of a different persuasion entirely, but they've been absent from the RP for a while.

Also, Deacon Frost has the mayor cowered under his finger, so that's relevant.

[13:38:37] Helligator: Depends on the god, but gods by definition in Nasuverse are strong because they have divine authority.
[13:38:48] Kat: Even the toilet god?
[13:38:56] Helligator: No one worships toilets.
[13:39:00] Helligator: Don't be a shitlord.

[04:32:08] Helligator: I can't make dragons in power armor like this

[19:50:12] francobull III: [...] why are you being all assive aggressive?

[23:32:37] Helligator: use the narrative as a means to convey an interesting story and cool conflicts with the openness you're allowed
[23:32:43] Helligator: not to CHEAT stories and conflicts

Well, I think that the population in general is well aware of the supernatural elements in the city, but knows that the police are just as powerless to do anything about it as everyone else is, so they don't expect much. I doubt the police give excuses so much as they just go "well, yeah, he was eaten by a werewolf, what the fuck do you expect us to do about it?"

Problem is unlike some of the characters PARIAH gives zero fucks about trying to keep himself hidden. He'd probably just walk down the streets in the middle of the day consuming everything in sight.

Yeah, in this world, no-one tries to keep theirselves hidden. Werewolves, Vampires etc. just roam the streets freely.

Of course, roaming around like that is very quickly going to bring him to the attention of people like Forest....

But even then, people freak out over a warg-sized dragon.
I sense a prejudice regarding the supernatural, as though werewolves and vampires are "normal". :V
=P

My character is prejudiced about vampires, but since Stone Mask vampires of JJBA verse are either near mindless cannibalistic monsters or trollish sickfucks, that's normal reaction.
