[Event] Genessia City

[genpcs]

Who: Open!
Where: Genessia City
When: Midnight, Friday, 13th.
What: Monsters!
Warnings: Also monsters.


As soon as midnight strikes, a mist rolls into the city. A misty night might not be all too strange, but what is strange is the inhuman growls that seem to kick start as soon as the mist is in. It doesn't take long before monsters start appearing within the city. They lumber about looking to attack anyone that they can.

However, anyone that is able to reach the safety of some type of building will find that the creatures can't get inside. While they can jump on it, snarl and hit at the structure, they can't seem to do any damage to it. It appears they can't breach any sort or safe haven that people have. However, anyone out and about seems to be fair game.

Selene the Crow | Bloodborne (OC) | OTA

[mercifulblades]

[ This wasn't the Dream, nor was it Yharnam itself. that much was for certain. The streets don't smell like burning flames for one and they don't look like they're littered with corpses from what she can see. It's been a while since she's woken up from her confinement and needless to say, she wasn't entirely too pleased. Once she gathers what she's been given, as well as the sword that's soon strapped to her back, she takes a few steps out of the Bay...

...and it seems like she's never left home. The streets are overrun by monsters, that much she can tell, but these ones are different than the ones from Yharnam. Some of them seem humanoid enough, but the others aren't. The items are quickly stashed inside of her pouch as a hand slips into her cloak, pulling out her Blades of Mercy, taking them apart before completing her trek. Although she only has a limited supply of Blood Vials and Quicksilver Bullets, she supposes she has enough to last her through the night.

It's a hunt this world wants? Well, looks like it's time for a hunter to join the hunt!

People can find her skillfully slicing through the beasts like they're nothing, her robes and mask becoming bloodied from everything. Every so often, she can be seen taking a break to recover her stamina and also inspect her own body for wounds that she's sustained from fighting here. ]

Heh... When are the more monstrous beings going to come forth, I wonder?

[ She's anticipating that the other shoe's always going to drop. That's what the night she's spent so far in Yharnam's taught her. Once her break's over, her daggers are at the ready yet again, going back into the fray as it was. ]

Col Mael Radec | Killzone 2 | OTA

[helghasten]

[What appears to be a stealthed black armored Helghast Colonel with a gas mask on is moving through the city holding his M32 knife skillfully..]

"I'd say this fight is far from over."

[heroes_never_die]

I... don't think that would be a good thing.

[Look who's pushing herself too far.]

Do you need a hand?

David Haller | OTA

[rulerofme]

[Of course something would happen with Halloween this close. However, this seem far worse than any other Halloween type thing from the past. Monsters had never appeared, excluding your own personal monsters during that thing in Fayren.

David was out in the city as soon as he was aware of what was going on. Assessing the situation, he starts dealing with monsters when he sees them, crushing them via his telekinesis or using some type of object to dispatch them. It's probably going to be a busy night. David can be found patrolling most parts of the city while the monsters are out and about. Feel free to bump into him. ]

[truesmiles]

[Fai was sitting on a rooftop, firing arrows into various monsters heads or weak points, knocking them down at the time being. Aiming another he paused for a moment he already knocked the Guardian. Of course, he would be he was at least happy to see that.

Lowering his bow for a moment he decided to speak at least.]

Hello down there. Keeping people safe, I see.

[blindpuppet]

[By the time that Enis passes David's path she's used all of the bullets in her gun and is left with the long danger that she keeps in the side of her boots. Luckily, she's usually armed.

Her blade twists and one of the monsters loses an arm as Enis steps around it. She's mostly been taking the monsters apart in pieces and leaving whatever is left in piles behind her. They can figure out clean up later, not all of these monsters bleed so it's a relatively clean mess...]

Good to see you here.

[She comments dryly as the unsettling red eyes flicker from David to the creatures around them.]

The park is clear as of fifteen minutes ago.

[Enis doubts that it'll stay that way.]

Kristen Kringle: OTA

[misskringle]

(Partial lock for Edward Nygma and Oswald Cobblepot)

Kristen was making full use of the GCPD being quiet to finish up some routine filing when the clock struck midnight. As she wraps things up to leave she spots what looks like a monster outside the window of the file room,"Must be the overtime." as she bids good nights before leaving. But the second she walks outside she's ambushed, cue the flying high heel before she sprints towards her apartment and safety.

[acrostic]

The distance between the hospital and the police station is one he has to cross often, especially since he often ends up delivering results for things himself as an excuse to correct someone's lab reports. Call it lucky (terrible really) timing that he's out there when creatures start running amok.

But he did get to see Kristen Kringle, in all her beautiful glory, actually hit a monster with a shoe in order to make an escape. All he can do is stand there agape for a second in awe. High heels. Who knew? Not long to think about it, however, because werewolves are charging at them. Ed ends up quickly trailing after her.

"Hi. Don't turn around."

Rapunzel | OTA

[ivegotadream]

[Rapunzel had no clue about what was too happen on the streets of Genessia after the clock striked midnight. However as she stepped out, she couldn't help but notice all the monsters that were out and about. Quickly panicked and unsure what to do she found herself running back into her apartment only for her to step back out moments later wielding a frying pan and had her hair down.

For those who come across the young woman would find her using her hair to grab and deal with a few moments and when not doing that whacking monsters left and right while doing her best to dodge.]

Yukiko Amagi | OTA

[firefandance]

[Yukiko had decided to take just one day out of her busy schedule in order to check up on a few things. Sure she trusted those who worked for her to take care of things, but at the same time she was still the owner and she still needed to check on things even with the trust.

So she had found herself wandering into Genessia just shortly after midnight, after a sudden change of outfits which she honestly wasn't expecting. Red riding hood was a nice costume choice but not really one she had planned to wear today. She didn't even remember putting it on.

Walking up to the archway to Genessia she took a small breath. Things were going to be okay in Fasyren while she was gone. It was only going to be for a few hours. Nothing to it.

As she stepped through, she found herself stopping. Okay... What was going on? She was pretty sure monsters were not something that was associated with Genessia, but Everglade. Did she step into the right archway? She knew that was the fact, she was in Genessia. Well color the young woman confused as she found herself moving quickly, avoiding various monsters as she was on the lookout for anyone who might be out and about.]

Shinjiro Aragaki | Persona 3 FES | + 1 Akihiko Sanada

[mortal_son]

[ Shinjiro had been heading back from his shift at Pan's Grocery, when things ... shifted.

Mist wasn't as dramatic as the oncoming Dark Hour, but that's the first thing he thought of - it's what his biological clock was wired for. Part of him was expecting to see monsters after the stroke of midnight for some time now - so when it finally happened, he wasn't surprised by it.

He did, however, swing by the apartment first - he had his Evoker on him already, but. He needed both his axe -

- and to keep his promise.

He grabbed his weapon and found his friend. ]

Aki.

There're monsters outside. A lot of 'em.

Let's do this.

/evil laugh

[southpaw_senpai]

[Akihiko had been shadowboxing as a form of winding down from the hundred push-ups he'd just done. However, as Shinji made his proclomation, he smirked and grabbed the holster that held his Evoker before swirling the cape over his shoulders.]

Monsters huh? Seems like old times.

[He pounds his fists together.]

Ready if you are.

Augustine Sycamore | Pokemon XY/XYZ (anime) | OTA

[megabond]

[With this situation, Sycamore usually stays home at night and sleep away until the situation is temporarily resolved. However, with him transformed into a vampire, he is unable to sleep for a while unless he is exhausted.

But seeing his newfound strength in this form, he might as well try to help some of the people with Garchomp's help. In fact, you may see him commanding his Mach Pokemon to attack the monsters (or even try to take out a few ones by himself) while fighting or running. Though it's best if you stay cautious around him.]

Moon Knight | OTA

[lunarlegionnaire]

[In Everglade, Moon Knight's forever pulling his punches. Forever second guessing his monster hunts and battles lest he fan the flames of war or ignite some other conflict between the city's many denizens. Even when every fiber of his being screams at him to protect and avenge those who walked by night, there's always the looming shadow of doubt hanging over everything he did and corresponding restraint on his part.]

[But this is Genessia, and tonight, it's the monsters who've come to call. When invaded, it's perfectly fine to defend.]

[So that's just what Moon Knight does. From midnight onward, the jet and silver avenger can be found swooping down on monsters going for civilians. Vengeance is as swift and sharp as the business ends of a yueyachan, and when that's delivered, he always stays just long enough to lead civvies indoors before grappling his way to the next street.]

[Who knew he'd be having a rather fulfilling Friday the 13th?]

[rando_dork]

[The last few nights have definitely been keeping Spider-Woman busy. Monster fight here, save some civilians there. She was starting to get a decent routine going with all these critters.

Her routine is utterly shattered when she catches sight of Moon Knight fighting in the streets. Mostly white costume? Hood? Holy crap. Someone was stealing her thing. ...Or did she steal his? How long had this guy even been here for?

She shakes her head and swings into action. Giving a mummy a firm kick to the skull before landing right beside him.]

Alright. One of us is going to have to go home an get changed.

[clevermind]

[Belle is attempting to find her way home in the fog. She hadn't meant to fall asleep at work and had been rushed to get home before the hour grew too late. It is already well past midnight as she steps into the chaos of Genessia's streets. She doesn't realize what has happened, not until one of the creatures had grabbed onto her cloak and pulled her to the ground.

She kicks hard but it isn't enough to release herself from the creatures grasp. In a flash of silver light the creatures grip is gone and Belle is scrambling to her feet. Her breath falls heavily away from her as her head turns to find the source of her rescue.

This is the first time she's seen a stranger dressed in a mask.]

Thank you.

[She isn't sure what else to say but Belle is currently defenseless against the creatures that filled the streets.]

[grizzly_tea]

[Out this evening in the main streets of Genessia, Maribelle can be heard with a high pitched scream as she's fighting a horde of monsters.]

Back! Back you horrific beasts!

[She had the misfortune of being ambushed nowhere near a building, with very little in the way of a weapon to fight with. She's instead using her Parasol to fight the monsters, and seems to be using it like one might brandish a sword. For someone who's got such a high pitched squeal, you'd think she was being torn apart, but she's actually manage to fight several of them off at the same time. If anyone would like to help her, she would be rather grateful.]

Soma Cruz | OTA

[notquitedracula]

[Monsters. Why is it always monsters? Why couldn't it be something cute and harmless, like a roving herd of cats or a stampede of bunnies? Hell, he'd even take bats right now. A flock of flying foxes. But no; what he and the rest of the city had to deal with now was neither cute nor harmless.]

[He passes through the streets in his own little world of mayhem, lashing out at anything that gets too close with a burning sword. Best to conserve his magic, especially after letting loose with Satsuki and Anastasia the other day.]

[What's his goal? Well, mostly it seems to be 'eliminate the intruders'. But if he sees anyone in need of help, he'll most definitely be assisting. There's something cathartic in actually being able to help someone for once, with his infernal power.]

Ayame Sasaki | OTA - Day 2 and after

[zenoh]

Intro:

[ When midnight of the first day struck, Ayame was on her way home in Attleton when her fears took physical form. Her old enemies and her deceased comrades all reminded her of things she wants to forget. It was a mere illusion, and she knew it. Yet it was more than enough to render her weakened and shook for the rest of the day. Phantom pains from her old injuries came back to haunt her, as well. Aching whenever buried memories swim back to drown her mind's eye. Hiding out in her tailor shop in Genessia, Ayame took solace in the fact she was able to bring her pets along, even if they lack their usual zeal as well, reflecting the feelings of their master. When night falls, Ayame heard the screams from every corner of the city, loud enough to seep through the tightly sealed windows of her shop.

Ayame didn't want to get involved, thinking she could just hide out while the entire event took place. But while rummaging around her shop, she finds her old combat gear, hung neatly on one corner of her storage room, awaiting the day it would be adorned again. Those visions in Attleton, and now this, only serve to remind Ayame of who she was. Who she truly is. Her heart races even while she stands still, hearing the chaos outside. Ayame closes her eyes and comes to a decision: She'll fight ]

Action:

[ Ayame made no grand entrance once she joined in the fray. Her powers are severely weakened by her nightmarish encounter in Attleton, so she's resorting to her close-combat skills in dealing with these creatures. She heard a big family in their van being chased by rabid werewolves. But with tire being stuck on a ditch made from the initial chaos, the vehicle couldn't go on no matter how much the father stomps on the gas pedal, and the wife on the passenger seat struck her head on the dashboard when the air bag failed to deploy. A wolf howled into the moon, calling more of its kin into the street where they would feast on the family. More than a dozen of them appeared from the shadows and jumped down from the roofs. The family is about to meet their doom, when the alpha charged at the van to claim the first blood, but the ferocious swipe of it's claw was halted by an invisible barrier, pushing the creature back in surprise.

Frustrated, the alpha commanded the others to attack the barrier at once. But a blinding light suddenly caught their attention, stopping them in their tracks. Growling under their breath, bearing their slick fangs and sharp claws, the wolves see the figure of a woman descend from above and land on the ground without any noise or impact. Standing as the light fades, she forms a glass-like blade of warped space taking the shape of a sabre. Clad in her old uniform, Ayame materializes a metal face mask below her cold glaring eyes. The wolves rushed to attack Ayame, who cuts them down with trained precision. Going for decapitating their limbs and their heads, it looks like she's done all of this a great many times. When it was time to face the bigger alpha, Ayame sheathes her ripple sword like it was a katana into a small portal, taking special attention to the leader by engaging him in a fist fight.

Ayame lets the wolf miss, leaning away from the strike before coming back with a straight cross and sweeping the creature's legs to topple it down. Ayame ends it with a stomp of her armored boots, crushing the wolf's head. After that one-sided battle, Ayame looks over her shoulder while she pulls the van out of the ditch, sensing another pendant wearer. She greets them the slightest nod as the face mask she conjured up retracts to reveal her identity ]

Civilians secure. We have more incoming in a few seconds.

[ Indeed a few seconds after that, there was another roar of a werewolf leading a pack much larger than the ones Ayame just dispatched. Along with the wolves, zombies are creeping into the street from the alleys ]

[lunarlegionnaire]

[Moon Knight had heard the tire screech from somewhere up the street and made haste, using the grappling line in his truncheon and his glider cape to cover more ground. By the time he drifts in from above, the armored woman is already engaging the werewolf alpha solo. She moves and fights like one who's bested many of their kind with nary a sweat, and she proves it when she eventually crushes its skull beneath her heel.]

[Then her face mask retracts. And the man behind his own now truly understands what Ayame Sasaki had told him at her party.]

For 13 years, I've been part of an effort to defend the Earth and her allies against otherworldy supernatural threats.

[It looks like Ayame's seen fit to re-embrace that time of her life. But tonight, no matter how she feels about it... maybe it's just what they all need. He nods at her, fighting the urge to pull back his own hood in a bid to gain her trust. His voice is deep, spectral, and unfamiliar as he unslings the Shaolin crescent staff he'd brought with him.]

Seven and counting. Let's dig in and keep them busy for five times that.

[With any luck, their friends in the van will be long gone. The vehicle's free of the ditch but the coughing noises from the engine tell him it may have had startup problems even before now. Armored gauntlets tighten around his staff, his cloak parting ever so slightly as he assumes a backstance. ]

Here they come.

[It's the faster werewolves who close in on the two defenders first, fangs and claws outstretched to rend and tear. Moon Knight meets the charge with a thrust, impaling the lead werewolf upon his staff's blade. The beast is still writhing and howling when the Fist of Khonshu slams the staff into the ground and vaults off it, silver-spiked boots hitting two more in a drop kick. All three of them crumble to dust as the impact of the kick lets the silver avenger tumble back, allowing him to retrieve his staff in a single sweeping motion and scan for more targets.]

Tony Clark | The Amazing Spiez! | OTA

[yoyoboy]

[He doesn't know if patrolling at night in his spysuit was a good or bad thing it has happened to him, but all he knows that being chased by monsters that popped out of nowhere was not on his schedule. Still, he is still a spy and he is not the type to become monster meal so easily.]

Alright, you creep! Eat disc!

[He shouted as he throws his Freezdiscs to the pursuing monsters, causing them to disappear. This makes him happy at the sight of it.]

Awesome! Looks like my gadgets works against them, unlike last time! Time to bash those monsters to pieces!

[After he grabs his Freezdiscs back, he quickly runs the opposite direction, which you may pass him by before seeing him entering another battle against those monsters.]

Col Mael Radec |Killzone 2 | OTA

[helghasten]

[ Genessia was filled at the time with various monsters..ISA were not included in this mess so to speak.]

[ A black armored Helghast Colonel stealthed himself throughout the night, holding his M32 knife in his hands as he carefully and skillfully cut down various monsters, some bigger than others. He wasn't a hero, but a enemy of a enemy was always a friend ]


"These... are trying my patience."

Belle | OTA

[clevermind]

As the hour struck midnight a bell chimed, pulling Belle from the peaceful rest of sleep. She was at work, the windows in the shop dark while papers littered the desk in front of her. She didn't know how long it had been or when she had fallen asleep but it was past midnight and time to go home. She cleaned up some before slipping from Everglade and into Genessia proper.

This wasn't the first time she had wandered home in the dark though it was different from before. Thick clouds of fog rolled around her, turning like the ocean. The unsettling sounds of nails dragging against pavement jerked her attention to her right where she saw a figure emerging form the mist.

"Hello?" Her voice shook slightly as she took a measure step back.

More unusual sounds filled her ears as she turned away from the figure and attempted to navigate her way home in the fog. Something caught her cloak and Belle stumbled to the ground, kicking at the offender. "Leave me alone." She got one good kick in the face of the creature, which was enough for it to release her cloak.

Enis Edrin -- OTA -- Trying to Help

[blindpuppet]

[Enis doesn't technically have an apartment or a place to stay at night. She doesn't need sleep so she never thought to get an apartment. She has a locker to keep some of her things in but that won't help her against the monsters that walk through the sudden fog that envelops Genessia city.

She's at the part when it starts.

System Alert: Code Delta
Source: Unknown

The annoying voice begins to echo though her head as her eyes shift from the familiar bright blue to the unsettling red color that singles her chips activation. It's an unfortunate side effect and completely cosmetic so it had never been fixed. Enis reaches for the gun at her side and readies to fight whatever might be coming.

After a few minutes she feels her phone vibrate and David's message echoes over Genessia. With a heavy sigh she replies while slipping her gun back into her holster and grabbing the long dagger than she kept in her boot. Whatever these things were, some weren't going down with simple bullets. She'll have to get creative.

Enis will be vigilant through the night, casing the area and heading towards anywhere where someone might need help.]

Neal Cassidy - OTA

[alandwithoutmagic]

Things were going fairly well for the recently deceased Neal Cassidy. He found his love Emma. He knew that he couldn't stay by her side forever but he'll cherish the time that he had now. They haven't talked about his death or about Emma's future but none of that really matters while they're here.

Not until the future comes knocking at their door.

The knocking and sudden crashes outside woke him like a lightning bolt from his sleep. He had been having a nightmare but he was used to it by now and was rarely woke by it. What did wake him was the commotion happening outside of his shared apartment. He paused before slipping soundless from bed and pulling on a pair of paints. His eyes remain on the window as shadows dance within the thick fog hanging outside.

"What in the every living-" His voice cut as another crash echoed from the street. Neal pushed his way outside, only locking the door behind him. He'll soon wish that he had his sword.
