Hareveth: A Forsaken Tale

[hivefleetchicken]

O'Connor would be sitting outside in a patch of gravel, his shotgun slung over his back. He picks up a sizeable rock from the ground with two fingers, before quickly tossing it at one of the houses.

[canon35]

Cain walks out to greet O'Connor and sighs "Inis and what's-his-face is still screwing around in that armoury, shall we continue checking out the town?".

[hivefleetchicken]

O'Connor slowly lifted to his feet with a grunt, patting his legs clean. He turned to Cain slowly, shrugging, before he quickly began marching down the gravel path towards the middle of the town.

"Sure. Keep up."

[canon35]

While Cain walks behind O'Connor he asks "What's with you and magic? You almost blew Inis' head off when she asked for a wand.".

[Valkrae]

There would be a small chest that would emanate some sort of energy. Some would think it is psychic energy, others would believe it was magic. The chest would be unlocked.

[Gollee]

Inis lets out a clipped cry of triumph as she spots the chest, "Over here! I can sense something!" She fiddles with the chest's latch for a short moment, before realising it was already unlocked, and flips the lid open, revealing a small trove of items; she quickly snatches up a small, carved stick, about the length of a forearm.

Sorry for a late post, I hope it's not too late to join.

Name: Centurion Tyreen Melkos

Age: 35

Race: Turian

Fears: Criticism, failure, huge opponents, normal food and organic matter (poisonous to Turians)

Likes: Loyalty, honour, bravery, humans

Dislikes: Tactically bad conditions, lack of discipline, cowardice

Physical Notes: 6'3 tall, female turian with purple face markings and gray carapiece.

Short Backstory: Tyreen was firing Phaeston assault rifle down the Victory Avenue, poping out clip after clip, trying to hold off the Reaper forces as they advanced. It seemed as if the enemy push was weakening. She had taken position with her squad as well as civilians who had decided to fight instead of retreating to the relative safety of the local Hierarchy building, a megastructure designed to withstand a 500 kiloton nuclear attack. As the last contact fell to the ground under concentrated fire, she took a moment to rest and look around. She noticed fighters were buzzing through the sky above the city engaged in fierce dogfights with the enemy Harvesters, outnumbered 3-1, but still wining.

It brought her hope and what resembled a smile to her face. "We are winning. All we need is renforcements and we can kick these bastards off our world.", she said to her comrades, breaking the bittersweet simphony of the distant gunfire. Her comrades noded with an equally cocky attitude. After a few moments, comms silence was broken by the sound of her commander's voice, "Attention. We are reading enemy retreat through the sector. All units, advance and decimate the enemy-". Sudden static hit as the clouds above them parted with thunder and lightning caused by the approach of the massive Sovereign class dreadnought along with a swarm of smaller craft.

Fear hit her as she realized that it was appreaching them with alarming speed. We can't fight it... it's going to land on us!, she thought to herself. Moments later, she was already pointlessly sprinting in terror towards the safety of the megastructure. Her comrades stood there in shock and fear, staring at their superior as she ran like a coward. Tyreen didn't look back. Last thing she felt was a shockwave kicking her off the ground and throwing her into a wall.

(( You're not too late, just nilch the armor for now, and you're good. ))

[Gollee]

Inis keeps hold of the wand and nods to Gideon, "This should be all I need, baring some armour, and supplies, I will go check around the other houses, this place seems abandoned." She heads out the door into the sunlight.

[Valkrae]

The other shops would contain next to nothing. As if the town had been swiped clean of everything else. The building in the middle begins to shake violently.

[Gollee]

Inis backs away from the building, holding her wand at her side, "Shit! Guys? Anyone? Something's wrong!" She yelled out into the abandoned village, hoping for the others to hear her.

[canon35]

Cain looks around him and says to O'Connor "Hear that?". Before walking off to the source of the noise.

[Guest]

Tyreen finds herself lying on her back in the middle of a field. She did not know where she was or how she got there, but rumbling in the distance drew her to her feet instantly. She looked towards the town and decided to investigate. She moved fast, but silently through the trees around it, quickly closing the gap between the town and herself.

[hivefleetchicken]

O'Connor grunted in annoyance, before jogging after Cain at a brisk pace, holding his shotgun sling tightly as he ran behind him.

[Guest]

As Tyreen reached the town, she started to move building to building while checking the area for enemies. When she peaked around the last corner, she saw the two men walking across the town. It seemed that O'Connor was looking at her direction while her head was still out. She pulled her head back hoping that she wasn't seen.

Name: Emerald

Age:28

Race:Human

Fears: Disembodied experiences, tight spaces.

Likes: Prosthesises, Color green

Dislikes: Freindship and closeness, blood

Short Backstory: Emerald was walking into the TRIAGE cybernetics clinic, going to get her HUD tuned. It was just slightly out of sync with her vision, getting her somewhat nauseous. She checked in with the intern, and was 5 minutes late. After sterilization, and standered health check, she was on the patients bed. Dr. Herald, she was quite fond of, walked into the room, and she told her about the out of sync HUD. Dr. Herald did a cybernetics diagnostic, and found out the inner connections between the left Over-watch EYE unit, and the HUD she has.

After being anesthetized, she drifted off into sleep.

*BEAT*

Emerald awoke, dry heaving onto the field. No hud, basic dexterity, stiff limbs. "Oh jeeze.. the hell?" Emerald looked around, somewhat nauseous still.

Description: A woman, heavily augmented, covering most of her skin. Her limbs appear to be improved with many invasive implants and prosthetic muscles replacing flesh. Her left eye is a glowing green, and her right is a dull blue.

Abilities:

Overclock: Her prosthetics run at double capacity, taking triple power, and allowing her to run faster and strike harder. Heat generated can deal damage to her flesh, requires HUD to be activated

Rangefinger: Use inferred and ultra violet emissions, to determine where an item or target is. Maps on hud, if availble, intregrated onto EYE

Heat vampire: Heat carrying conduits leach heat from a person or thing, adding to power reserves.

Metabolism feeder: Set the metabolism system on overdrive, taking many calories, producing .75 energy than normal, but doing so rapidly.

Adrenaline pump: Manufactures hormones that trigger adrenaline rush, requires HUD to be activated

Pain Reduction: Artificial synapses dull pain on a certain threshold.

((all her augmentations except basic eye funtionality, limb funtions, and metomabilic intercharge are disabled. PMing list of augmentations to DM

[canon35]

Cain finally arrives to Inis and stares at the shaking building, asking Inis "What the hell happened?!"

[Gollee]

Inis back away from the building, "I don't know, it just started shaking when I walked past it."

[canon35]

Looks at Inis, confused, and then looks back at the building "Should we...check it out?".

[hivefleetchicken]

O'Connor barely catches sight of something peeking around the corner of the building. He craned his neck cautiously as Cain jogged on, squinting.

"I see you!" He shouts, slowly removing his shotgun from its sling, before continuing on.

"Y- Who's there?"

Tyreen peeks out again quickly, notices the shotgun and makes a short sigh.

"Friendly! I'm coming out unarmed, don't shoot!"

She comes out slowly with her hands up, staying still close to the cover of the corner.

[Gollee]

"Maybe.... Should we wait for the others? Or check it out ourselves?" Inis points the stick towards the building, expecting something to emerge.

[canon35]

Grabbing his shotgun out of his makeshift holster, Cain looks behind him and says "Where the hell's Gideon and O'Connor?".

[Wer6]

((I'm gonna wait for DM to approve my character.

[hivefleetchicken]

O'Connor is taken by surprise as the creature reveals herself, before slowly returning his look to a scowl.

"What do you know," he growls, squeezing the las shotgun's barrel as he visibly hesitates from pulling the trigger and gunning down the female, before continuing, "A fuggin' villager." He clenches his teeth as he stares the Turian down, before marching towards her with his gun raised and trailing behind her.

With a swift motion, he pokes the barrel into her back to edge her forward. "Let's walk, shall we?" He chuckles out, keeping the shotgun at her back as he nudges her forward. "So. Who's in charge here, hm? Mind explaining -any- of this shit?"
