Nate's Dead?! (A Storybook not to scare anyone)

Yes it is true, our great web admin person was murdered (or is he really dead?)

PLOT:In a world known as YWS, there was a King like figure named Nate Caldwell ruling peacefully with his fellow moderators. Then, one day, he vanished into thin air. Young Writer's Society went ballistic, assuming that someone had murdered the King. The world of YWS is in chaos, bad grammar runs amock, the different types of prose and sonnets invade each other's territory and of course characters begin to escape in fear for their own non-real lives (except for the nonfiction..they have real lives to worry about).

Where you come in: You can play as yourself or make your character really bad a** (whatever floats your boat) You are one of the few brave young writers that wants truth (or at least a little foreshadowing or hint at what happened). You make the trek with your fellow writers to the center of YWS, embarking through the perilous archives and sad poetry. Be a hero? Or watch YWS crumble before your very eyes.

Are you ready to take on this quest?

RULES:

~ Minor cursing is allowed but remember this is basically your web personality if you choose to do so.
~ Love is allowed (but no sex)
~ Drama is welcomed (it's a plot...)

I will most likely makeup a map of some sort but I will definitely say we are starting in the land of Storybooks (or i might just come up with a more creative name)

Name: Firefox
age: unknown
personality: unknown...
physical description: Firefox is a human puppet with six arms at his back. He has a doll face on his belly and has two large wings made up of various human-like puppets. AT the center of his back is a small box that can turn to a whip.


weapon of choice: himself
fighting style: Firefox has a variety of fighting skills but specifically he used his puppets as his weapons. He either controls them or used as weapons. He can also split most of his body to attack. He gains strength by absorbing the works and stories in YWS. As well, Firefox-as a puppet- is hard to killed especcially if he is dismantled, he fix himself back again.

Anything else: he was supposedly created as an assassin to the leader. But now that the leader has vanished, Firefox decided to absorbed and destroy everything. It is much easier now since the whole place is a mess.
Weakness: Unknown...possibly inside him

Name: Heather/ Kitty
Age: 20.
Personality: Gee, I have to describe myself? Uh... I'm friendly and just crazy enough to stay sane. I like things to run smoothly, I'm part of the mod force and determined to set YWS to rights but also, Nate was my friend. I'm going to kill the *insertbadword* who killed him.
Physical Description: Brown hair with a touch of red, long, hangs down to almost my waist right about now. Usually wavy, often disorderly. My eyes are amber. Not in the sense of being orange but they're a warm brown in the centre and ringed with just enough green that they quite often look amber. My complexion is white with big freckles on my arms, little ones on my face. Go view my profile and you'll see me pretending to be Poison Ivy Also, there's a ring I like to wear. Celtic in style, picture attached. Other than that, my clothes for this sort of role would be the sort I can move around in. Probably my trainers, blue denim shorts, my favourite tights which are very dark purple with a design of pinky-purple flowers and vines. A purple top and a black cardigan.
Weapon of choice: I have magical mod powers! Uh... basically I can move topics back to where they belong, edit out bad grammar etc. If we're being more physical than that then I'll have my Dagger of Time from the good old CRA days. It's pointy ^^
Fighting style: Ask ridiculously hard questions in sweet tone. Identify target as enemy. Prod with sharp, pointy dagger. If it breaks skin, it makes the affected target older or younger. Sometimes by a little, other times by a lot. I don't yet know how it's controlled so it's pot luck.

As a side note, pm me at any given time if you want me to accidentally stab you with my dagger. We can decide the effect between us or roll a dice XD

Name: Nicole/Tigress

Age: 16

Personality: Um, goofy and fun-loving. YWS was my second home, like so many others, so I will be there to destroy whomever killed Nate.

Physical Description: 5'10 inches. Light brown hair to the middle of my back, almost always straight. Light brown eyes. Pale skin. I usually wear comfy jeans and a tank top with flip flops.

Weapon of choice: Humor. I'm not really a fighter. xD So I'll laugh my way out and distract everyone with amazing humor...hopefully. ^.^ Or I can always lift up a pants leg and blind them with my unnatural paleness >.<

Fighting Style: I should throw my pen/pencil at them! >:D Yeah, I know...I'm a bada** Um, I would attempt fighting, because I am with the group who is going looking for Nate, but I would fail miserably. ^.^

Anything else? No.

Weapon of choice: *takes deep breath* The ultimate no-longer-frozen twelve-pound lime green duct tape covered boomerang turkey leg of eternal doomy-ness, and a roll of lime green duct tape. (For those of you that are wondering, it's an explosive, but whenever it doesn't explode it comes back to me. Extra duct tape is to put it back together afterwards.)
Fighting style: Very "here it comes!" when it comes to fighting. Not very good at the stealthy, sneaking up type thing.
Anything else? Nope.
