Hanging up the Cloak - Sign Up Thread

[Astral Alex]

Hey guys, this is a sign up thread for the RPG me and a few other members.

Post your character bios if you would like to be a part of the RPG, demons, warlocks, innocents anything that you feel would fit into the story !

So just post the bios here!

[Jad]

Type- innocent, mortal
Name- Jack Thornson
Age- 40
Occupation- coffee shop owner near Chinatown, volunteer at a homeless shelter
Why he's on the Charmed One's radar?- either he's a a future whitelighter or a new to his powers witch in need of protection. He might also have some needed information as he is into the occult. This just gives the main characters man ways they can interact with him.

Power- immune to fire or heat damage, only he doesn't know it yet.

[Astral Echo]

If Avatar doesn't return, if Jad fancies it, I reckon he'd make a good Piper.

[Jad]

I'll play Piper for a while until we can find another player/writer.

I already have some ideas for her post in the attic.

I'll post as soon as I get confirmation from Astral Alex that tis is alright.

[Astral Alex]

Also guys, I was thinking shall we use this thread to discuss plans for the story? I have a few issues I would like to discuss; such as the continuity.

Me and Jad are setting the story in the early hours/late at night, while some things are getting confusing, like why is Henry feeding the kids so late etc? We can use this thread just to discuss issues and plan before we go ploughing into the story.

[Astral Echo]

I feel as those the stories at Phoebe's and at the Manor are working quite well in unison. I'm not particularly pleased you just orbed in and grabbed me, there is no need to rush the story, you could of posted something similar to what I put.

And can we decide whether your playing Piper or Jad is, it would make more sense if Jad is because then no one is playing more than one of the sisters.

There is no need to rush things, as I said. The conversation in both our posts should of happened across a number of posts. You and Jad as Paige and Piper then you and I as Paige and Phoebe. Try not to godmod other peoples characters.

[Astral Alex]

Ooh dear, sorry Dan. I'm a bit new too this, I will learn for next time? We could go back and change it if you still want Phoebe at her condo? And yes Jad is playing Piper, I am playing Paige - are we not allowed even to cross-use the characters for tiny bits of speech? I apologise again Dan.

[Astral Echo]

It's okay Alex, if you don't make mistakes, how do you learn from them?

It's fine to go from where we are at the moment as I've caught up the gaps in the middle.

You can't use other people's characters in your own posts, unless your say passing something to them, taking their hand etc...but always leave their speech to the other player. If you want to requote someone elses speech, that's fine. Just don't reply for them as well.

[Astral Alex]

Very true! And okay, I'll continue in a bit !

[Jad]

Don't rush things alex, there is an eight hour time difference between me and you. My best time for being online is like 2 in the morning to 6 in the morning for you. I think that this is coming along fine. When in a converstion with other characters, sometimes your posts will only be a paragraph long. But, it's the interation between all the writers that makes it a role-playing game. The only time the thredstarter, gamemaster should do more is fi the game hits a road block and needs a kickstart. So far, we have multiple posts per day, so no we're near a road block.

My name is Jim by the way, jad is my initials. I think that Astral Echo is Dan and Astral Alex is Alex, correct me if I'm wrong, everybody else does.

[Astral Echo]

Dan is correct indeed. Nice to meet you officially Jim.

[Astral Alex]

I see, I'm determined to go slower now, I've been thinking of the plot we just discussed Jim, it sounds good!

[Jad]

Now that the Charmed Ones have threats from two differnet sources and one aimed at children. I think we should talk about turtling or circling the wagons. Since the Charmed Ones are stronger together, it means getting the extended families together under one roof till, they figure out what is going on...

This gets Henry and Coop back into the game.

The Shadow Demon thing with Ari seems to me as if the demon was trying to get Ari to turn evil or use the attack to extort something out of Phoebe. Does the demon even know that she's a daughter of a Charmed One?

[Astral Alex]

I would say yes.

I had the idea that the Charmed Ones are preoccupied with the Devlor's and Jack the innocent which leaves the Shadow Demons enough time to maybe influence Ari to influence Phoebe into evil, returning the stolen Grimoire to them, to coronet a Source? Just a basic story outline.

[Astral Echo]

Just so your aware Coop honey, the phone is on the couch. lol

[Jad]

Just so ya'all know, the Devlor demons flamed back to Jack's trap near Chinatown and his coffee shop in an alley just off of Bush Street. Jack could be in trouble as the demon he trapped earlier was the one that rescued the cages demon in the attic.

[Astral Alex]

Nice, I was wondering when we were going to see Jack again. I like him as a character, I may cut to an Underworld scene with the Shadow Demons soon, explain a bit more about their plan to turn Phoebe to evil using Ari?

[SARI-SINISTER!]

mmk lol, I really love how the rp is going! You guys' play the charmed ones very well!

Pheebs should check this here out! Interesting facts about the three daughters'!

[Jad]

New Character-

Name- Wanda Tricvaga
Race- Shadow Demon
Powers- Shadow Teleportation, Telepathy, Suggestion, Shadowing
History- she is high higher class of call girl in San Francisco. As such, she is an intelligence gathering operative for the Shadow Demons. She is charming and has a way with convincing others to do her bidding. She has been undercover in San Francisco for years, so she knows her way around in the human world. Shadowing means that as long as she is in a shadow, she cannot be seen. Shadow Teleporting is transporting yourself through shadow. This is why the Shadow Demons carry smoke bombs. It's not that they need smoke to teleport, but they need the shadows that the smoke creates to teleport.

I was also thinking that Billy Jenkins could still be around if anyone wants to play her.

I don't know why Paige scried in the middle of the bay, but I thought I left a clear trail. They went to an alley off of Bush Street not to far from Chinatown. It also is the back entrance to Jack's coffee shop.

[Astral Alex]

I like that character Jim.

And yeah, does anyone mind if I play Billie? As in the RPG, Paige is going to visit her as it is the anniversary of Christy's death. And I was thinking that they have found the base for the rest of the clan, seen as though the Devlor's are all effectively 'brothers', it just pans the story out a little more. Maybe have a Power of Three fight scene.
