By the way guys, I still have the rough recordings of all of the parts we've done so far (I THINK I'm up to date) they're really rough and I keep stumbling over my words (that's what I get for not reading it BEFORE I record it). I'd have to do them all again if you wanted a neater version, but if you want the rough version, I'm quite happy to sort them out and upload them somewhere for your perusal.

And you're asking whether we want it or not? Where are the links? ;)

I don't have any yet. I need to splice (that is an old school term isn't it?) all the recordings together in... something. I'm going to try and reinstall my copy of adobe premier elements in order to do so, I don't fancy doing it with Windows Movie Maker which is all I have otherwise :/ And then I need some place to upload it.

I'm torn between Tindeck dot com, soundcloud, or just making them downloadable some place. I'd like to be able to password protect it, whatever the case. Anyone have any suggestions?

I don't really use online services... So I'm not sure I can help. The only thing I could think of is making a password protected .rar and uploading it to any sharing service of your choice. :(

Can't make rars, my computer doens't have the software and all attemps I've made to download it have failed. Not sure why.

I THINK soundcloud or mediafire may have protecvtive passwords. I shall try one of them.

Also would you guys prefer each character's part to be uploaded seperately, for ease of downloading, or as one big one which would be simpler to upload?

I'm fine with the big one piece, if it's easier for you to upload.

Dryu and Sicon (Sicon already knows, but I dk if he's here or not) I'll talk to you so to our characters can talk in my post. BTW, all I need to do is:
- Make a quick research and possibily add something on part 2 of my post
- Write about me getting in the house
- Talk to Alister
- Talk to Dryu's character
And now I'm off to lunch.

Did anyone describe the house?

Not specifically but the appearance has just sort of evolved from person to person.

It's a residential neighbourhood with shops on the other side of the road, one of which is apparantly an old fashioned cobbler. The house itself has a rusted gate and peeling paint doors. It's pretty run down and ugly looking, but the damage seems msotly superficial, it's not derelict. The inside seems to be fairly alright.

Ok, I asked it just in case I decided to describe the house. BTW, can some mod put my sheet at the Character Sheet?
EDIT: Thanks, Dryu

I open the door, and Alister tries to shoot me, but he misses. I pick up my weapons. What do you do?

I dive behind the closest cover and aim for the door with the pistol I have with me, lamenting that I should have taken the assault rifle after all. After that, I watch what the Templars do. If they don't attack, I don't either. If they order to cease fire, I'll try to incapacitate Alister if he misbehaves (probably getting tele-knocked out for my trouble).

Immediately proccess the fact that neither of you are freaks and then watch with interest, possibly edging towards the guy with the awesome hat because he has a kind face.

Kevin, step up and hold the mop in hand, facing the dood in the door. Not much else, 'cause Alister is on the other side of the room, so...

Anna would shout "What the fuck are you doing?!" at Alister. It would take her a moment to reach for her gun, but when she does think to do so she'd aim it in his direction, and say, "You can't just shoot at people like that!"

It would take her another moment to realize her hypocrisy, and she'd hope the others didn't notice.

One last thing: My character is a bodyguard, and when he gets in the house he's wearing an Eisenhower jacket he bought at a pawn shop, a militar-green shirt and cargo pants. And now it's there!

SORRY!

Forgot to say he has a cat in his backpack, so, you're all hearing cat noises.

I'll put this up here. So, errr. This is awkward. Is it alright if I switch spots with Mimsy? I mean, does anyone have major issues against Mimsy and Sicon being on the same team?
Alternatively, could eli change with narra? ... Though Adell wants eli on his team so...

How did anyone react to three man in combat gears and gasmasks!?!?

@Agora, there is a issue. It should be possible to switch, but, Xana is out for the day. I'm not sure we want to make that call without him.

As to the gas masks, we can all say what we did (not shot or jump at the guys, evidently) on our posts... And... Quarterstaffs are pretty big, they don't fit a suitcase... So will it be ok if I lampshade having one waiting for me in the van? That way I'll just get a backup handgun from the suitcase.

Could someone tell me what a Freak looks like? And some about how they work please. Spirit, Monster and any other kind of Freak please.

Only Xana knows the details. We'll learn in due time, Vic. xD

Spirit Type Freak: These are the spirits of dead Monster type freaks, they possess human bodies and spread as much misery as possible so they can use the psychic energy let off by humans in despair so they can reclaim their full form. Legends based around them: Vampires, Werewolves, fairies, zombies, and any other humanoid creature of legend can be linked back to a spirit type freak

Monster Type Freak: These take on many different forms, they are the nightmares of humanity and some have existed for thousands of years. One popular theory states that they were meant to be the top of the food chain but due to humanities faster birth rate and knowledge were pushed back. This theory is supported by ancient weapons found in tombs all around the world. These weapons seem much more advanced then what we even have today. It is believed that ancient societies were destroyed by the last remaining Freaks causing humanity to take thousands of steps back. Myths based on them: Dragons, Demons, all creature of a monstrous base in myth

Thanks. I didn't know how to imagine a Freak in my mind. All I could think of was this:

Meh. I based the one I had Aiden fight equal parts on Slender Man and on an obscure type of zombie I once created for an RP I was in. So I guess that one was Monster Type.

As for switching, I certainly wouldn't mind. It would give me a chance to write more epic collab posts with Sicon, and to pull off awesome gambits. I could also have Aiden troll him gratuitously. ^^

Anyway, my question is, which team is going after which target? Is the Monster-Type one the one who murdered a guy because he thought he hadn't given him his coffee fast enough, or was that the Spirit-Type?
