Organization


HALO, an organisation of holiness, light, fun, and roleplay!
Joining is simple, you keep your soul, and your blood... And someone else keeps their blood as well (well, usually).
All you have to do is...

1. Must be non-evil
2. PM another HALO member
3. Ask to join
4. They might ask questions... So answer them!
5. You're pretty much in.

Just that!

We also have a wikispace for more information, such as member lists!

Member awards as well (since we rock!)

Visiting HALO
HALO is located Under the Sea! However that doesn't mean you can't visit...

1. There are Shuttlepods providing arrivals and departures on a regular schedule.
2. There are no anti-teleport wards!
3. If you can't teleport yourself, there are Ring Transporters, which link (among other places) the Mall of Acronymia from Inside.

Important Note for Villians

Spoiler

Show

Conflict is great! It's the heart of any story, and there isn't much to roleplay without it. However, as a player to player courtesy, please check in with the players who are active at any given time before launching an attack. Not everyone wants to roleplay combat scenes, and sometimes there are other things going on that players don't want to interrupt for a random fight. Either a PM/IM to players, a short post in thread to say ((Mind if I introduce a villain here?)) or a longer post in the OOC thread if it's a larger plot is appreciated.

BIGGER NOTE

We have no banner. You, you, you, and you in the back that never gets to post because s/he is usually ignored... FIND AN AVATARIST AND SEND HIM THIS WAY. Heck, even if someone here is semi-good with photoshop so he can combine our avatars into a cheesy simple banner... That'll be fine too.

Just for a little side note, if everyone is cool for a little organization, let's try to get character notes compiled so we can post them in a list here. This is up for continued discussion, it's just an idea.

[Mee]

((Is HALO like helicopters like that? Being out of chocolate, that is?))

Anyway, K is around.

[Recaiden]

((It's not out of chocolate. It is chocolate.))
Arlem is in fact chewing on the chocolate walls.
Actually, ze's in the pool.

[Mee]

((It's not out of chocolate. It is chocolate.))
Arlem is in fact chewing on the chocolate walls.
Actually, ze's in the pool.

((As I said, like the helicopter. ))

Awww, no Arlem?
Perhsies could be around . . .

[Recaiden]

((I don't know any chocolate helicopter, sorry.))

Yes Arlem. She's just in the pool. And not rainbow colored at the moment.

[Mee]

((I don't know any chocolate helicopter, sorry.))

Yes Arlem. She's just in the pool. And not rainbow colored at the moment.

((It's from the trailer for Left 4 Dead 2.
Slightly fat guy is complaining about why someone would put the evac station up 30 flights of stairs, so sarcastic guy sez: "I dunno, maybe the helicopter is made of chocolate."
And was an instant internet fad.))

Well, Perhsies is in the library. As he wouldn't willingly go to the pool.
Well, he would willingly go, if Arlem asks him to. But not any other time.

[Recaiden]

((Okay.))

Arlem finishes that mile and heads towards the library. Drying off, going to normal clothes, adding color.

[Mee]

((Okay.))

Arlem finishes that mile and heads towards the library. Drying off, going to normal clothes, adding color.

((Mhmm.))

Yay for color!

Boo for having to deadtime.
Goodnight.

[Je dit Viola]

Will is lounging on a couch, with his wolf lying down like a large fuzzy chair next to him.

He's waiting for a love plot to start up again before he strikes. Since those are a lot easier to...stuff.

[Recaiden]

Arlem turns away from the love plot being interrupted by deadtime and goes to see Will.
By the time she arrives she's changed shape to look just like him and is trying to read his mind.

[Je dit Viola]

Let's see...tall, lean muscle (like a dancer who works out or something), long dark red hair.
Right now, he's thinking about politics and economics of castles and villages in the middle of swamplands.
He doesn't notice the shape-changer, 'cause he's still petting his buffalo-sized wolf with canines as large as a Saber-toothed Tiger's, or something.

He has his axe and sword on him.

[Recaiden]

Arlem steps into the room. He has the same clothes, and an identical appearing axe. No sword.
Hi! Who are you?

[Je dit Viola]

No sword? 'kay.
Does she smell the same? 'cause the wolf would smell her probably.

Hi. I'm Will. Who are you? he asks the look-alike. He figures it's an illusionist, like his sister.

[Recaiden]

Mostly, but there are also traces of previous scents: water, fish, mercury, flowers.

"You can call me Ishmael," says Arlem. "Are you new here?"

[Bergett]

Michael is still sorta here.

[Je dit Viola]

These two people are talking, in the Front Room.

Well, I've only been here...once or twice before, so I guess I am new here. he shrugs.

His wolf looks up and around, looking at the Will-lookalike who smells like water. Gross.

[DoomITP]

Tatsu was waiting while Eklipso was breathing deeply, trying to relax.

[Recaiden]

Alright. Well, it's good to meet you, Will.
He looks back at the wolf.
What's with the wolf? A pet? A werewolf? Hmm?

[Je dit Viola]

Front Room

A companion, he says. That explains it.
The wolf swishes his tail.

[Shooting Range] (?)

Eklipso's done deep-breating now. She re-opens her eyes.

[Recaiden]

[Front Room]
Alright. What brings you two to HALO?

[DoomITP]

Feeling better?

[Je dit Viola]

[Front Room]

We came to repay... He glances at his wolf, a small debt.

[Shooting Range]

Yes, much better, she says.

[Recaiden]

[Front Room]

Arlem tries to see if he's thinking about the debt. Maybe she can help him pay it.
I see. Good luck with that.

[Je dit Viola]

[Front Room]

Umm...he's thinking about a slab of meat the size of a car. If that has something to do with the debt.
Also, question: If he's thinking in the language of fire, will she understand it?

Yeah, that's why I came back here, to pay it off.

[Recaiden]

[Front Room]

Probably not. And she'd get vague ideas, but not understand the words.
Okay. Is there any way I can help?

[Je dit Viola]

[Front Room]

Oh, okay.
So I should continue writing the general gist of what he's thinking, but not the exactness of it?
No, I think we have it covered, he says. Thanks for offering, though.

His wolf gets up on its four legs, and stretches. Then flicks her ear, before wagging her tail a bit.

[Recaiden]

[Front Room]

Okay. ... You're not here to kill anyone, are you?
She's watching the wolf curiously.

[Je dit Viola]

[Front Room]

No, not really, he says. Not exactly. It's not why he came here, and he won't kill anybody. Knights don't really do that. Neither do princes. Not killing somebody.

His wolf looks back at her. Its white-yellow fur seems clean, as if it was washed recently.
Oh, they also both smell like the Nightmarish Shadows that have been attacking Upstairs. Since they've both been running down the city killing hoards of them.

[Gimliggamer]

Sonder is around, as is Sythier, and Boccob is gone again.

[Recaiden]

Not ...really? What are you planning to do? She asks, suspicious.
