-Drained- [RP]

Intro:

You have been wandering for weeks through narrow, wet tunnels following only a faint need, a wish even you yourself cannot explain. It is very cold and the only sound you can hear is the echo of crystal clear drops falling from the ceiling down into the knee deep water you are standing in. Your skin has turned frighteningly pale and upon looking at your reflection in the water you find yourself staring into a pair of unfamiliar blazing red eyes. The image on the calm surface is inhuman but you still recognize its face and features, it truly is you. Ever since you have woken up in this unknown place you haven't eaten a thing but you don't feel hungry, there is water all around you but you don't feel the need to drink. Hours and days pass by but you continue walking without stopping to rest or sleep.
Alone and lost you start to fear that you will never escape the maze-like tunnels but soon you see a white speck ahead and without a second thought you start running towards it. You shield your eyes while they adjust to the shine of the lights placed on the wall left of you and step out of the water. The space you enter is just as claustrophobic as the large pipe you exited and you feel disappointed realizing you haven't emerged outside.
Slowly you glace over the new environment and through the metal wire mesh on your right you see the frozen figure of a man.He is staring at you with wide eyes and a face that shows not fear but curiosity. His hand extends towards you slowly and cautiously as he approaches you and the mysterious urge that had led you to this spot now pushes you to reach out as well. Your fingers connect through the spaces between the metal wires and at that moment it becomes clear to you that what you were searching for was warmth. Your eyes shine brightly and you can feel power build up inside of you as you drain the life from the human. In only a few seconds the man fell to the floor unconscious, leaving you confused and frightened by what you were now capable of. Hearing voices in the distance you run too scared to think about where these passages will take you.

Setting:

A large industrial center named Exal that was once home to thousands of poeple who worked here. After a hazardous material was discovered in the mines of the city it was abandoned leaving behind empty homes, factories and a system of tunnels that run undergriund and conects many buildings and locations.

Characters:

+Solroks

-Solroks are strange humanoid creatures that have appeared roaming through the Underground system of Exal. Many of them look for ways to reach the surface but there are those who prefer to hide and remain out of sight. The origin of these beings is unknown even to themselves. Their skin is very pale and as cold as ice, their eyes are usually an unnatural color like red,orange,yellow or even gold. They have the ability to drain the heat from objects and even living beings and are always in search of something to supply them with power. Most of them only gain physical strength upon draining a target but there are rare ones who become able to release the collected energy into objects and melt them or burn them.

And here's my form 😊

Full Name: Albert Snowing
Gender: Male
Age: 24
Appearance: Albert's appearance suits his timid personality very well. He has short slightly messy silver hair and hazel eyes. He is of average height and rather scrawny build with fair skin which is a result of him spending much time indoors. An oversized gray sweater covers most of his body and he rarely ever takes it off as he dislikes being cold. The rest of his clothing composes of white pants and gray sneakers. He also wears glasses with a plain metal frame out of necessity.
Personality: Most of the time he is very quiet, speaking up only to correct people in case they make an inaccurate statement. This often results in a bad situation as not everyone enjoys being lectured by the shy know it all. He prefers to solve problems without conflict and could be considered cowardly since he scares very easily. Despite this he often likes to play an adventurer and becomes too curious for his own good.
Job: Doctor

Full Name: Aurelie Charis 'Aura' Aveline Abyss Beauchene
Gender: Female
Age: 22
Appearance: Her wavy triple ombre hair style waterfalls down her back, framing her pale face dotted with two cerulean orbs. Upon the small face lies a button nose placed above two high cheekbones, many freckles splattered upon them. She has a lithe, petite frame, her meek appearance hiding muscles, ready to strike as she turns 'Abyss'. Every now and then she puts her triple colored hair into a french braid to concentrate when researching.
Personality: Aurelie Charis is obsessed with the rocks, simply fascinated. It is her main goal in life, to find out everything there is to know about these ordinary but strange objects. She is quite quiet, reserved, hardworking, always working towards learning more about them. Aura doesn't really interact with others much, far too focused on work and her art. This girl is in love with researching and art, married to her job but cheating on it with her arts projects. She does, however, retain a darker side. At the unfortunate moment when someone makes the mistake of upsetting her, she turns completely evil, strong, grown men are afraid of her in her 'abyss' state. You could call her Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, split personality. Or call her Aura and 'Abyss', sucking the life out of everything around her, or painting a beautiful masterpiece.
Job: Researcher

Good? 😸

Ooooh, another interesting Roleplay~

Name: Serenity Radaelli
Gender: Female
Age: 18
Appearance: Serenity is a rather small girl, not very tall and not very heavy. She has long black hair that curls naturally to just above the middle of her back. Her bangs shift off to the right side of her face and curl into her long hair, making it hard to determine where they lie. Her eyes are a dark red, unnoticeable from far away. Her skin is a deathly pale, detracting from her appearance, but despite this her lips are still a nice pink color. She is wearing a tight, white, spaghetti strapped tank-top and some jeans shorts and she isn’t wearing any shoes or socks.
Personality: Her personality is not a very pleasant one. She is grim and emotionless most of the time when she’s by herself. It only perks up when she’s around other people, but even that has a dark side to it. She craves heat, so humans become her vicious prey, but other Solroks stay her friends. She grows attach to most people, afraid of being alone. On top of all of this, she is very emotional in certain situations. In short, a train wreck waiting to happen. xD
Able to release energy: No.

Weeeeeeeeell, I'm gonna go ahead and start! I'll delete it if i shouldn't have started but here it is!:

Aura's glowing spheres flitted across the rock with a gaze that felt like light butterflies softly dancing across you. Her long, slender fingers tightened around the object, feeling and memorizing its ridges, her chest rising and falling with each inhalation. With a a quick exhale of frustration, the rock fell from her grasp, shooting to the ground and her soft hands landed on her slim but curvy figure, landing right above her hips. Leaning back against a wall, she examined gher surroundings where Aurelie had spread out her work, rock- and art-related. Paintings and sketches, scripts from famous plays, papers on her rock findings, specimlens of these rocky prisms and spheres. She hissed and kicked the forgotten object lying where she had dropped it moments before. If she didn't calm down, she would turn Abyss pretty soon, she had to be careful.

quillbunny • 31 July 2013 at 6:27 PM

@onyx @ilovedoctorwho

Guess I will start too.


Ashay watched as the last customer walked in her car fix it up shop. She tried as hard as she could to not drain the human, for it would ruin her reputation. "Hello. Uhh, could you fix the brakes?" The customer asked Ash. "Yes, yes." She answered. "Keys." She said, and she held out her hand for the keys. The customer, named Bob Neels, a very respected townsperson gave her the keys with full-on trust, not knowing who the owner of "Ash's Fix It Up Shop" really was.

ilovedoctorwho • 31 July 2013 at 6:31 PM

@quillbunny
Would it be okay if I made my person bring her car to be fixed, she's bored. (That makes two of me and my fictional characters!)

quillbunny • 31 July 2013 at 6:35 PM

@ilovedoctorwho Sure. 😈

Ash walked back in the garge, as Bob sat down to read a magazine about mines.

Ashay works on the car, not having to worry about draining it, the process was completly normal by now.

ilovedoctorwho • 31 July 2013 at 6:44 PM

Timeskip!

Aurelie Charis pulled up to the shop and left her silvery blue jaguar, her gleaming eyes narrowing as it sputtered. Gritting her teeth unhappily, she walked inside, looking for the owner, taking deep breaths to calm herself. 'Not here, no Abyss here,' she repeated to herself, hoping she would regain her cool before she exploded.

onyx • 1 August 2013 at 12:42 PM

@kurochi-akuma Sure 😊

@ilovedoctorwho Its just fine that you started it. I'm just sorry i didn't do it like i should have =P

@quillbunny Just to remind you the town is abandoned. The only people in Exal are the ones who came to dig up the rocks and only the Solroks actually live there.

@marinalily
@cutebirdy79

My post ended up a bit long =P

A reasonable amount of doctors was sent to Exal in order to ensure the safety of the workers and researchers who would be using heavy machinery underground in the mines and would be coming in contact with the mysterious and potentially dangerous material that is found there. This proved to be a vise decision as a large number of injured men needed aid on a daily basis and the large amount of medics came in handy. Still it was interesting that even despite this the wounded people had to wait a long time before being treated. They sat on plastic chairs in a dirty hallway still not repaired after the many years of abandonment and every twenty minutes or so one of them would go through the plain wooden door and into the ambulant. Today though the patients found themselves waiting for hours, slowly loosing their temper as it seemed that all of the doctors had somehow vanished leaving behind no one to take their place.
-"The victim was located in the mines not far from the other two who died a week ago. When his coworkers found him he was already cold as though he had been dead for some time but he was seen alive only minutes prior to being discovered lying..." The short man in a white lab-coat spoke as he stood beside the autopsy table. His colleagues who were in most cases very young and had little experience observed some distance away on the opposite side of the motionless body. None of them knew why they were required to be present at this "lecture" and it seemed that most were too occupied with finding an excuse to leave to actually pay attention to what was being said. Some of the medics like the silver-haired man who stood near the end of the group were overwhelmed by situation even at this point. This became obvious to the lead doctor very soon and so he paused his speech for a moment to explain that anyone too shaken by the sight should leave at that point. At first no one reacted to his sudden announcement somewhat afraid that they would embarrass themselves by being the only ones to leave but after only a minute or two after some whispering in the crowd a large number of people exited the room and made their from the basement back to ground level.
Instead of going back to his office like most of the others the silver-haired man headed outside in a rushed pace his breathing deep and sweat dripping down his face while he gave an effort not to think of the scene he just fled from. He wasn't sure where he was heading but the possibility of getting lost in the large empty city slipped his mind. The only thing he thought of were the events that brought him here.

cutebirdy79 • 1 August 2013 at 1:00 PM

Elena had been wandering the streets all day. She hadn't found one human and she was getting restless. 'Don't become 'killer'. please' Elena thought as she thought she thought she saw a human. Elena began to walk towards the car shop. When she saw the persons pale skin and gold eyes Elena got a little to excited. "Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh" Elena blurted. 'Elena calm down its just someone like you' Elena thought as she put her hand on her mouth. Then she took her hand off her mouth and said to the other Solrok. "Um hi I'm Elena or Killer" Elena said she couldn't control herself so some magazines in the waiting room began to float. 'Oh no' Elena thought then with the snap of her fingers the magazines fell. "well nice meeting you" Elena said then she ran out of the car shop and began to walk the streets again. "Why do I do that" Elena said to herself. Then a breeze came by and Elena could feel the heat from humans near by. 'Don't become killer. Don't become killer' Elena thought but it was to late she already had her targets and she wasn't going to change her mind now. 'Why' Elena thought as she walked towards the humans. Her body wasn't hers anymore it was killer's now but her mind still was hers.

I thought this was in an underground mine that was abandoned? Why do we have cars and a car shop? >.>''' *facepalms*
--

Everything was silent in the dark tunnels deep inside Exel. The faint sound of water droplets could be heard dripping into the waist deep water, but that was all to be heard. It was so quiet here; so cold and lonely. No one should have to endure this place. It wasn't right to be here. It wasn't safe.

A girl was sitting inside the water against the side of the narrow tunnel. Her long black hair was soaked against her pale wet skin and she trembled slightly from the cold. Her hand was resting against her forehead, her elbow resting on her knee. She wanted warmth. She wanted someone, something, anything to keep her from feeling this way, but there was nothing in the mines.

Abandoned since the accident, this place had become cold and dead. The girl was the only one or she at least believed she was. There was no way out. She looked everywhere, but there was nothing; no door, no light, no way...

She wanted to cry, but she knew better than to let her emotions get the better of her. So she sat quietly, listening and waiting for anyone who happened to be nearby.

marinalily • 4 August 2013 at 5:52 PM

@cutebirdy79 @onyx @quillbunny @ilovedoctorwho @kurochi-akuma

It was quiet in the mines and abandoned towns of Exal. An occasional Solrok wandered around, or the odd and doomed human that came to mine too close to the old town or where a Solrok hid.

Sighing, Clive looked out his window. Empty, as usually. Pulling his golden eyes back towards his work, the self-proclaimed tinkerer focused on releasing his energy, creating... something. Clive more than enjoyed the pleasure of creating machines, never mind that most of them were useless or unnecessary. It was an art, according to him.

Grinning like a schoolboy, Clive watched as he added the piece to his wall of "things" and set it in motion with a button, watching the chain reactions of the scrap metal that he had used to create something more. It was mangled and dirty, but the wingbeats of mechanical birds made out of old kettles and spoons was unmistakeable. Following the creaking sound of metal, Clive looked upwards as the "sun" rolled through the sky. He sighed. Clive could already feel the need to drain something, or he wouldn't be able to create anything more. In truth, the thought of taking life was wrong to him. But to stop creating... he couldn't do that.

Revival? o:
--

The girl shivered, gripping the side of her leg with her other hand. Her lips parted slightly, revealing clenched teeth trying to suppress a whine. She had to get out of here. She had to find dry, warm land. 'Warmth...' She thought, almost in a daze. She removed her hand from her forehead and rose up out of the dark, cold water.

As if with no mind, she walked along the tunnels. She walked and walked for what seemed like hours and days. No matter where she turned there were more tunnels waiting to meet her. Her breath became more raspy. Her eyes went wide. She was beginning to panic. It wasn't the first time she felt this way, but it was always different every time. Fear was a cruel emotion.

She began to run through the water, not caring who could hear her. She just wanted out of this torture. As if to answer her prayers, light shown itself in the distance. Her heart filled with immense joy as she ran towards it. She was finally out. Free of this place. It didn't matter what was out there, she was out.

She walked out of the water and looked around. She could see there were stone buildings scattered all over the land. Some were big, while others looked like little houses. She took a step forward, trying to get used to the feeling of dry land under her feet.

/Clank/ /Clink/

She jumped, looking in the direction of the clanking metal.

"What is that?" She breathed in wonder.

Cautiously, she walked towards the sound, coming near a small house a few yards away.

quillbunny • 19 August 2013 at 10:06 AM

Ash felt the power surge that always made her feel like everything was perfect. She was a human, but still as powerful as now. She lived in a bustling town and everyhting seemed like a dream. She sighed, as she kneeled down to the dirt floor and started working on the car. She twisted her wrench, as she thought about her dream town, where she could live happily without having to worry about having to be dangerous. 'A girl can dream.' She thought, as she finished the car and walked back in the lobby. She tried not to drain. 'Not now. Not now.' She thought, as she clenched her teeth.

@cutebirdy79 @onyx @quillbunny @ilovedoctorwho @kurochi-akuma

Clive had just finished with his metal, and was now working around it, for the machines encompassed his whole house- a result of having too much time to oneself. Although Clive thought it rather grand. It was a shame he never got to interact with others much though, for the Solrok had no other opinions on his creations to go by save his own.

But who needed that? He was fine by himself. In fact, it saved him a lot of trouble. If he were to trust others, or live with others, Clive wasn't sure if he would be able to sleep soundly.

It was the result of living and being alone for a long, long time.

Humming quietly to himself, Clive fixed himself a lunch of toast, sausage, and tea, which was already quite a complicated experience, since the toaster was connected to the wall, the stove doubled as a patch on the floor, and his water pitcher hung from a height and needed to be pulled using a lever. Never mind that he placed all his ingredients and tools all over the machinery in "strategic" points that added to its strangeness.

His kettle, in fact, was all the way upstairs, which irked the man. Why was it there, of all places? Opting to just boil the water for his tea using the good old pot and stove instead, Clive began the process of inserting and preparing his food in all the right places.

If Clive ever did get someone living with him, he would make them do the meals instead. Maybe then he would be able to eat something else than breakfast for his meals.

Although Clive doubted it. Living alone meant making all your food. From practically nothing. It was tiring work, and really, Clive felt like his own housewife at times.

He supposed that even if someone did live with or near him, they would move out the first chance they got. For many reasons.

Clive glanced out the window again, sighing. There was no one there, as there usually-

There was someone there.

She was deathly pale, and had long, dark hair, although the colour of her eyes was unidentifiable in the distance between them, not to mention the window. But Clive knew she was beautiful, to say the least.

What was she doing in the abandoned shafts of Exal, though? Not many besides the occasional Solrok resided here, and even then they did not stay permanently, like Clive did. Was she even a Solrok? Maybe she was an unfortunate human, which would, coincidentally, help Clive much more than another Solrok could, if only to end her life to help his.

That was a disturbing thought.

Throwing away all notions of privacy and safety, Clive opened his front door a crack, which was tough, considering all his fancy and creaking locks that covered the frame, more for his enjoyment than necessity.

"Are you alright?" Clive called out cautiously. "What is your business here?"

cutebirdy79 • 19 August 2013 at 9:31 PM

And thank you~ ❤️
--

The girl practically jumped out of her skin when the front door to the house pulled open a crack, making a loud creaking noise as it did. A young man, or who she thought was a man since she couldn't see well, poked his head out from the crack in the door and asked of her business here.

Her body froze. She was trembling in fear and she didn't even know why. He only asked her a simple question, but to her it was the most difficult question anyone has ever asked her. Why was she here...? Who was she? She didn't know.

All she knew was to be afraid of him. It was the first time in a long time that she had come in contact with a human and her experience with them wasn't a good one. Her mind was screaming to run, but her legs didn't move. She just stood there in a pathetic manner, eyes wide, and every inch of her body trembling.

"I..." She mouthed, almost inaudible.

She couldn't even manage to finish a sentence.
