Post your forum! We want to start. 😊

Name: Cerberus
Type: Killer/Kidnapper
Looks: Mix of this: http://browse.deviantart.com/?q=animal+robot&offset=24#/d1jpmg5 and this: http://browse.deviantart.com/art/Wood-robot-2-24846673. Mainly the leg and paws from the second drawing and the face, colours, material and texture from the first drawing.
Personality: Cruel, cold and mean. He does not care what the other say about him. He is a lone wolf and always works alone, never following anybody's rules, not even listening to other robots. He always stays away from others and absolutely hates humans.
History: He was first created to be a friendly robot companion, but he killed every member of his owner's family because his system malfunctioned. He was to be destroyed and shut down, but somebody freed him before the others could destroy him.
Crush: None at the moment.
Other: He can kill or kidnapp humans, depending of his mood. Lives in an huge abandoned dump where he sleeps on a large pile of metal scrap. Even though he prefers working alone, he sometimes works with Drakon'e, but on rare occasions. He is around in the size of a large horse.

@chapus2009

Name: Drakon'e (Dra-Ko-nu)
Type: Spy/Killer
Looks: Part dragon, so she can fly. Small wings that blast air. Her arms are now wings. She is "made" of bronze, every part but her head is bronze.
Personality: Shy. Cold to others. She has a "shield" around her, like all harmful words bounce off her. Her personality suits her type. Has a large crush on Cerberus, and SOMETIMES works with him. 😸
History: She was the "wanted" since birth. Trying to be hunted down, everybody failed. Cerberus is her only ally. The operation on her, to make her a full-bronze dragon, failed, so only her head and brain was left human. This explains why she can breath flame.
Other: Can breath flame out of her mouth. Blue

@rushingwater
Please read through the rules one more time. C:

@chapus2009
Accepted. 8D

seaangel • 10 December 2012 at 8:03 PM

@fuzzykins412
Now can we start? Oh, also I changed the crush section on Ally's forum.

fuzzykins412 • 10 December 2012 at 9:20 PM

@seaangel

Yes, we can start now. C: And yay, romance! ( Edited Ivory's form as well. 😋 ) XD Oh, and I forgot to put this in my form, but Ivory and Zach are adopted bro and sis.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ivory walked through the deserted town, her steps matching Zach's. The down was gray, dark, and dull. A cloud of grief seemed to cloud over them, as they glanced around nervously for any Machines. They walked a little farther, and happened to catch sight of two people, Ally, and Robby. Ivory started to approach them, but Zach quickly held her back with one arm, narrowing his eyes in suspicion. For all they knew, those could be Machines, coming for them. Ivory shrugged off his arm, and carefully started towards them.
~~~
Sighing, Zach quickly followed after Ivory, protective of his younger sister. He approached the two teens, and noticed that they seemed about their age. He nodded to Ivory, and carefully brought her forward. " Name's Zach. This is my sister, Ivory. " Zach introduced, glancing at Ally, noticing that she was quite a piece of beauty.
~~~
Ivory laughed, and removed his hand from her shoulder. " Come on, give me a break. I think I can introduce myself without getting killed. " she joked, then glanced at the newcomers. " As my brother said, my name's Ivory. " she greeted, smiling at Robby and Ally.

chapus • 10 December 2012 at 9:37 PM

@rushingwater Lol. xD Robot love. xD Cerberus is SOOOO going to ignore her.
@fuzzykins412 Yay! 8D

Cerberus was walking along the abandoned streets of a nearby city. His head turn from side to side, searching for any humans. He then heard distant voices from a small group of humans. He sneak up behind a building, making barely any noises. He then saw so humans and got ready to attack.

fuzzykins412 • 10 December 2012 at 9:43 PM

@chapus2009 Haha, I should've put that in the form section for the machines, but I'm a lazy butt and I don't want to switch accounts to edit. XD

Ivory could've sworn she saw something move around in the shadows, but passed it off as a stray animal, probably a dog of some type. She glanced where Ceberus was hiding, but she couldn't find any trace of him. Zach followed her gaze, and narrowed his eyes, putting a protective arm around her. He thought about putting one around Ally, his new crush, but then realized that the girl would probably slap him, and ruin their chances of love. " Nothing there, Ivory. " he announced , turning her away from the building.

chapus • 10 December 2012 at 9:46 PM

@fuzzykins412 Lol, thats ok. xD Oh, my blanket is blue. c:

Cerberus decided not to attack them. He quietly followed them, watching their every movement.

Btw, Cerberus is around the size of a horse. 😸

@fuzzykins412

"I'm Ally and this is Robby, beware of his harsh personality." Ally said joking around. She quickly turned to hear a very slight clatter of a machine. Her body quickly got tense as she pulled her dark blue long sleeved shirt down. Ally's eyes got wide, a slight glimmer appearing then disappearing.

"Ally, what's wrong?" Robby asked as he followed her gaze, seeing what looked like a robot like arm. "Everyone stay still. On the count of three we'll go into that building over there. We'll split into two groups, one group on one floor, the other on different floor. Blink twice if you understand.' He said, his voice in a whisper.

Ally looked at the others and blinked twice looking at Robby. "What are the groups?"

Oh, I meant secret agent with spy....anything else I need?

jupiter_hollow • 11 December 2012 at 3:33 PM

@onyx we're starting! >w<

Despite the young, gloomy dawn and gray clouds surrounding the sky, a smallish black dot of a person in the streets stood out sharply, although his dark clothing suggested fitting with the equally dark background. He was walking hecticly forward, rising dust behind himself as he went. The black hood of his roomy jacket was drawn over his head and face, leaving only a few brown and white strands to hang out. Beneath the dark clothing,his sheet pale skin stood out, making him look nearly dead - a ghost on the background of the empty city...
If anything, the boy looked as if he was in a hurry. Despite attempting to travel as quiet as possible, his fast footsteps still echoed around the block, making it nearly impossible to remain unnoticed. Said footsteps and his quick breaths seemed to be the only noises ripping the silence.
Still, he didn't bother stopping or slowing down. There were the occasional wary glances around, but other than that, he seemed unbothered by the city's unwelcoming darkness and the gloomy shadows waiting for him after every corner.
Only the cold didn't go by unnoticed. The boy had both hands in the oversized pockets of his hoody, pushing them as far into the warmth as they could go. Although his clothes were rather thin and didn't preserve his heat, they were good enough for him to huddle into. The temperature was a little over 20 degrees, not cold at all, and yet he looked as though he was freezing.

onyx • 11 December 2012 at 4:36 PM

Despite the lack of sunlight the area remained very visible, illuminated by a few occasional fires. After the ordeal the town went trough the previous night it was left in flames. All humans were killed or had fled and the machines now slithering and running around didn't truly care for the slow decay and collapse of the buildings.
What happened here was an unfortunate outcome of many machines gathering together. They caused much destruction by deviating from their principle of attacking only individually. Still at this point the group had already disassembled with only a few of them still in the area getting ready to leave as well.
Among those still in town was one rather human looking machine. With all its mechanical parts covered by clothing it was difficult to tell what the creature truly was. It moved in a rather hasty manner, heading out towards the next populated area.

@jupiter_hollow @onyx @seaangel @chapus2009 @izzfred @rushingwater

If you read through the rules again, you'll see it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~


Ivory glanced nervously at Zach, and they both blinked twice. She looked over at Robby, and her eyes asked the same question as Ally's. Glancing around, Ivory quickly noticed the metal arm that stuck out behind the building, and held back a small laugh. Such a small thing gave it all away. Ivory glanced at Robby one more time, noticing his strong build. ' Stop! What are you doing? ' she thought, scolding herself for thinking such ridiculous thoughts.

jupiter_hollow • 11 December 2012 at 6:21 PM

@fuzzykins412 see what?

fuzzykins412 • 11 December 2012 at 6:22 PM

@jupiter_hollow

Sorry, I was talking to @rushingwater.

seaangel • 11 December 2012 at 6:52 PM

@fuzzykins412

Ally looked at the others and then a idea struck her. A small smile was held back. "It needs to be unexpected. Dark, you go with Ivory. I'll go with Zach." Robby nodded as he counted to three and then they all went in.

fuzzykins412 • 11 December 2012 at 6:57 PM

@seaangel

Zach flashed a smile at Ally, and nodded towards Ivory, making sure his sister was fine with the groups. She smiled back, and walked back to Robby, staying close to him as they approached the building. Ivory accidentally bumped into him, and felt a blush creeping along her face, and kept her head down. Inside, it was pretty dark, with the exception of one, single lamp that was already fading away. Every shadow seemed to jump out at them, waiting to attack.

seaangel • 11 December 2012 at 7:06 PM

@fuzzykins412

Dark walked up to the first door. He quickly grabbed Ivory's hand, pulling her into a room as he pointed up as Ally looked at him for directions. He winked at her kindly as Ally stayed in front of Zach going up the flights of stairs, each one making a different sound as she stepped on them.

"Zach, what about here. it looks pretty abandoned." Ally said as she pulled him aside and walked into the room. It was tattered and something that you would see in a horror movie. It looked like it used to be a nursery, but now it had blood dripping from the walls, the wall paper tearing down the walls.

fuzzykins412 • 11 December 2012 at 7:26 PM

@seaangel

Gah, sorry for forgetting something again, but I edited the forms so that the characters have a weapon of choice, can't be defending themselves without any weapons at all, right?

Ivory felt a slight tingle run up her arm as her hand was in Dark, and she smiled a little, before walking into the room with Dark. The room was completely wrecked, the walls had multiple holes in them, and looked like it used to be a library, with all the spare paper and covers scattered across the floor. She shivered, feeling like a cold darkness was approaching them. Ivory pulled her furry jacket tighter around her. Glancing out the broken window, she spotted Ceberus down below, and shrieked, jumping back and clinging onto Dark. " Machine... down... there... " she gasped out, unsheathing her silver sword from behind her, and standing in a ready stance.


Zach nodded, and looked around the room, grimacing. " Doesn't look like a pretty sight, does it? " he muttered, the dark blood making a horrifying sight in his mind.

I have a flaw for overlooking my flaws and rules. XD What did I miss? 😋

fuzzykins412 • 11 December 2012 at 8:48 PM

@rushingwater
XD You were supposed to put something near you that was either blue or yellow in the 'other' section.

Deleted • 11 December 2012 at 8:51 PM

@fuzzykins412

Ok, I have something blue next to me. What's it for?

fuzzykins412 • 11 December 2012 at 8:57 PM

@rushingwater

You just put it in the 'other' section so I know you read the rules.

It's alright. Accepted.

seaangel • 12 December 2012 at 11:23 AM

@fuzzykins412

"Definitely. We might want to find a place to hide, just in case the machine over heard us." Ally said as a small noise made her jump, toppling over Zach. "Sorry."

jupiter_hollow • 12 December 2012 at 3:53 PM

@onyx hey, you gonna add Dora? I don't know which char to use...

The short treck along the streets brough him to a small, seemingly abandoned alleyway. Judging by the richly piled scraps and metal, it looked like a dumping place for machine parts, though there were some rather disturbingly bloodied strips of flesh laying around. Not that he payed attention to them... but to an observant person they would have been a notable drawback, which suggested it better to not go anywhere near.

On the contrary, he trottled enthusiastically forward, almost diving in the mountain of metal. For a few minutes he dug around, searching for a weapon, since he was practically defenceless as of now. Sadly it seemed the pile didn't consist of anything worth keeping so he moved onto the other one, visibly discouraged already.
Luckily, after a while of fruitlessly rummagjng through, he came aross an array of what seemed like linked together reddish sticks, all bent in a half moon. Observing the formation more closely, he was terrified to recognise it. A human ribcage...
The bone structure was chucked away immediatelly as he continued his search, ridding his memory of the terrible sight.
After all, he didn't find anything more than a pile of firewoks (which had magicallyended up among a pile of srap) and one rather long and heavy metallic machine limb, that he gladly dragged along.
