Helgraf & Shadow Present
Vampire III: Sunnydale Nights
Link to Recruiting/Rules thread
It is a quiet night in Sunnydale; a less frequent occurrence than most of its citizens realize. Children are home, most of the high school students have turned in, and even the college aged population is looking at their watches, ordering last cups of coffee before considering the trek back to home or the dorms.
It is a quiet night in Sunnydale; the last several nights have been quiet, a fact that is setting Buffy Summers' teeth on edge; not that she wouldn't enjoy some time off, but normally as All Hallows Eve approachs, supernatural activity has always gotten worse - and this year, nothing. Nothing at all - not a demon, ghost, curse, and the only vampire around was Spike. Spike had been a problem once, but over the last few years, their relationship had changed. It was weird - not half as weird as most of the things that had happened in her life, to be sure, but nevertheless.
Sunnydale was quiet. Too quiet. Which meant something was up - probably something big and horrible. That would be nice; a problem you could solve with a little Slayer-fu tended to be easier to deal with than, say, any of her relationships.
Willow, for example - who had just about vanished entirely a month back; leaving hardly more than a brief email, something about magical research. They were friends, but while she was one of the few Slayerettes who could keep up with her with the aid of her magic, there was something else there, something she couldn't put a name on. The way she stared at her when she thought she wasn't looking.
It was lost in these thoughts, more troublesome than most of the monsters she'd ever had to fight, that she heard it. A scream ... immediately her senses sharpened, and she made for the sound like a shot, moving with the inhuman grace and speed of the Slayer.
Man, on the ground, pale ... but there was no vampire, just a hanging fog that slid away down the road - and the odd scent of ozone. Someone else had done for the attacker. But who?
Buffy needed answers...
Night 1 begins with the discovery of a corpse drained of blood. Recall in Vampire Night phase is the voting/lynching phase. Night will continue for 48 hours - time starts when the thread is approved.

Re: Vampire III: Sunnydale Nights
((Right, now who to RP as... *Consults own not-quite-encyclopaedic knowledge of BtVS* ...ah.))
Owen Thurman knew it was dangerous to wander around Sunnydale at night... but that's why he did it. A longing for the thrill of a potentially deadly encounter, a fascination with the morbid drawing him out into the darkness so thick it sometimes seemed mystical, as if brought on by some magician, some Shadowcaller. Passing by one of Sunnydale's many cemeteries, he glanced in and whispered to himself:
If I should n’t be alive
When the robins come,
Give the one in red cravat
A memorial crumb.
If I could n’t thank you,
Being just asleep,
You will know I ’m trying
With my granite lip!

Re: Vampire III: Sunnydale Nights
*day 1 random point at Oddity*
Also, I do plan to try to roleplay, since I did so the last time around. But I've got nothing right now so... :smallamused:
@Helgraf: The link to the recruitment thread doesn't work. Mostly cause it's the link to edit that post.

Re: Vampire III: Sunnydale Nights
Not so random point at Freshmeat to renew my crusade to try get him lynched on day 1 for once :smalltongue:
-
Re: Vampire III: Sunnydale Nights
Eldritch Knight for the random.

Re: Vampire III: Sunnydale Nights
Will was walking home, tired. It had been a long day at school, followed by a long night at work. Honestly, all he cared about at the moment was getting a good night's sleep.
Of course, if things were just going to happen like that this wouldn't even be brought up, right Aemoh?
((I'm looking for ideas at the moment...))

Re: Vampire III: Sunnydale Nights
ah... random points!

Re: Vampire III: Sunnydale Nights
A young Sunnydale High student walks into the park and sits down on a bench, reading a novel called The Philistine by the light of a nearby street lamp.

Re: Vampire III: Sunnydale Nights
((I don't really watch Buffy; can I RP as a Shadow Unit character? Similar theme...))

Re: Vampire III: Sunnydale Nights
Evnafets seems to have been acting a little oddly...

Re: Vampire III: Sunnydale Nights
When did it get so late? Paul Stone wonders idly as he hurries home. He'd gone down to the beach that afternoon after school, in search of peace and quiet - he must have nodded off as the tide was rolling in.
He lifts his head when a scream breaks the stillness. "What was that?" he mutters to himself. "Sounded like someone in trouble, maybe hurt." He quickens his step and turns at the next side street, looking for the source of the noise. A dark figure bumps him as it rushes past in the opposite direction. Someone fleeing the scene? Because of a guilty conscience, or simple cowardice? Paul continues the way he was going, though - helping whoever was screaming is a higher priority than trying to chase down someone who may just have been in the wrong place at the wrong time, and not wanted to get involved.
(( I believe it's traditional to have a Day 1 bandwagon against Fleeing Coward, is it not? So let's get this party started right. :smallwink: ))

The student, quietly reading, suddenly can't shake the feeling they're being watched...

Re: Vampire III: Sunnydale Nights
Random point at Dirk Kris.

Re: Vampire III: Sunnydale Nights
Oddity missed the bus
((end of RP))
No day 1 point O_o

Re: Vampire III: Sunnydale Nights
The young freshman was curled up with her lovely kitty, stroking her gently.
As the cat purred next to her, Cerise stared at the picture of Sunnydale's most popular girl, Buffy Summers. Oh how she wished she could meet her. To be part of her little group.
She closed her eyes and imagined brushing the hair out of Buffy's eyes. She was just about to kiss imaginary Buffy...... Cerise!!! Time to get ready for bed!!
Dang it Mom!! I told you to knock!! Cerise jumped off her bed and slammed the door.

Re: Vampire III: Sunnydale Nights
Griff was lost in Sunnydale, somewhere on the university campus by the look of things. That was not a good thing. Kids tended to disappear when they were alone in Sunnydale at night, kids that were way bigger, tougher and older than little Griff. After all, he was only ten.
"C'mon, everywhere is a block Griff, keep turning left and you'll find somewhere you know. Or you'll end up walking in circles...good deal."
Griff sighed and wandered into an almost deserted park, the darkness rallying against the sparse streetlamps, eager to dowse the tiny pockets of resistance. He looked around nervously and hurried along the path, sure someone was watching him. If he didn't find his way home soon he would have to give in and ask someone for help. He just hoped the individual wouldn't see him as Fresh meat fit for the taking.

Re: Vampire III: Sunnydale Nights
Fleeing Coward. RP to possibly come later maybe.

Re: Vampire III: Sunnydale Nights
I have to point at Mordokai, invisible Castle told me so...
-
Re: Vampire III: Sunnydale Nights
Switching to Philistine for encouraging a bandwagon against me and because I don't fancy my chances of surviving a lynch against a great analyst like Freshmeat.
-
Re: Vampire III: Sunnydale Nights
lex-kat for making me spend three seconds figuring out who she pointed at.
-
Re: Vampire III: Sunnydale Nights
Mordokai, because invisible castle is always right.
-
Re: Vampire III: Sunnydale Nights
Hmm, it's day one. Have I forgiven Murska for the many and various betrayals he has perpetrated against me? Nope!

Re: Vampire III: Sunnydale Nights
Starla Knight walked the streets, trying to familiarize herself with the little town that was her new home. Long, wavy blonde hair was pulled back in a ponytail, and her brown eyes moved constantly, trying to take it all in. Her parents wouldn't buy her a car yet, so she was trying to find the fastest routes everywhere walking could take her.

*hands a 'Vampires suck!' and 'Vampires are a pain in the neck!' banner to GAThraawn*
*stalks Mordokai and annoys him*

Re: Vampire III: Sunnydale Nights
Mordokai for being a vampire prince.

Owen also hears the scream from across town and rushes in the general direction he thinks it came from...
((I think that's only traditional when he provokes it himself by claiming to be a wolf))
