| Heya, I floated interest in this a while back, but was too busy to follow up. Now, seeing that some of my old pals in RP are back and feeling that I need some casual writing, I create this!
This is a basic, free-form RP. If people express interest, I'll lay down more rules and how to make a character - character making rules will be a little tweaked due to this being an atypical Felaryan RPG. What sort of RPG it will be exactly... well, we'll have to see. | |

| Gotta say, this sounds pretty interesting. You can count me in if this comes to fruition. It'll be nice to officially get involved in the rp community again. Out of curiosity, would Negav be the only setting, or would be more along the lines of there being other places mentioned with Negav being the real main focus? | |

Well, it would be focused in Negav. But if we really wanted to we could branch out - the "surrounding" areas are definitely all fair game and will be counted as "part of Negav", as far as the Ascarlin Mines and Nekomura. Also, Negav has the underground, parts of which are probably a wilderness by itself. A great RP could just come out of people trying to test just how far down the underground goes... Anyways, Characters - Name: Race: Sex:
Physical Description:
Additional Info:-Note - Race will, realistically, be a more influential thing on a character in Negav. A Neko might be viewed by some racist humans as "primitive". An elf might be stereotyped as "haughty". A human might be seen as "clumsy" by other races. An elf would be able to walk freely into the Elven District. In general, races will probably be human, elf, neko, inu and variations on those. A small naga or dridder could be made, but would be difficult as they would not be allowed, except in exceptional circumstance, into the actual walled area of Negav. But, something could possibly be worked out. Under Additional Information, put anything you think could be useful for other to get a feel for your character. This could be... Personality - This should really be developed through RP, but it can be helpful to put notes down. Biography - Similar to personality, not totally required, but can be helpful for developing story Place of Residence - Where does your character live in Negav? This can be a clue to other aspects of their character. A big mansion in the Upper Tier? A small underground apartment? A townhouse? A hut? Race can also affect this. A small naga or dridder is stuck living in the Motamo Docks, or maybe Underground. An elf can live anywhere, but has the option of living in the Elven Quarter, if they are a fan of a close-knit community. Occupation - Similar to residence - is your character a noble? A merchant? This is similar to the concept of class, which, like race, will affect other characters interactions with you. People will treat an elf noble differently than a neko street sweeper. Finally, if you are interested, I would highly, highly recommend going over the Negav entry and associated pages in the wiki. | |

| can this lazy but very RP loving reptile join in? ^^ well, i got my word to work again, so here is my character. - Spoiler:
Name: Nina’lare, Katarina, Ydri’lana, Henatina, Peluma’nira, Jones Race: 50% Human, 25% Elf and 25% Neko Sex: Female Physical Description: Nina’lare is quite tall at 6 feet and 4.77 inches. She is pretty, but not overly attractive. She has slightly pointy ears, her orange eyes resemble those of Nekos more than human or elf and she has fangs, which are about average sized for any normal Neko. She also has a patch of fur where a tail could have been. She looks to be about 22 or 23, her actual age is 63. Her hair is dark brown and goes to the bottom of her shoulder blades.
Occupation: a high class, live in maid. Residence: depends on who she’s working for at any given time. (She is quite sought after, for her maid skills) Abilities: Nina’lare has been so lucky to get the best of all three races, except for being highly affected by any sort of catnip. She has excellent hearing, smell, physical abilities, balance and sight, both night and day. She also have knowledge of magic, but only uses it for her job, such as cleaning or entertaining rich kids.
i hope she will do, cause the names were a pain to come up with

Well... I'd have to see that character. Anyways, here's mine as an example (use the spoilers to keep it neat and easy to find.) - Spoiler:
Name: Samiel Race: Vampire Sex: Male
Physical Description: Zamiel is tall and slim. He has short, fair hair and ice blue eyes. Due to his vampirism, sunlight is irritating to him. This affects his dress, causing him to wear a long black coat, a wide brimmed hat, shaded glasses and a scarf when out on the street. His clothes are rather ragged and it seems he only has one jacket and hat to his name. His black jacket also curiously has many shapes scrawled on it, most noticeably a stylized eye.
Residence: Underground Apartment Occupation: Private Detective Abilities: Uses a form of death magic, which is weakened on Felarya. Can drink blood if wounded to regenerate faster. Capable, if untrained and dirty fighter. Can probably hit something unloading into it with a firearm. Quite good at finding things not wanting to be found.

| Can I make it six? Bio Posted: - Spoiler:
Name: Hue Loche
Race: Human
Sex: Male
Physical Description: Hue is a tall, heavily built man with a general over weight appreance; his blonde hair comes down to his ears and is usually combed back. His hair and plae skin has often caused people, including his fellow officers, to confuse him for an ethnic Vishmital, although he has proven otherwise. His chubby face holds eyes of marble grey shrouded by a protruding brow. As a patrol officer of the Investigators' Sixth Field Platoon, Hue is usually seen wearing the appropriate active duty uniform; heavy dark blue trousers and tunic underneathe a bare metal segmented cuirass and bevor with black combat boots.
Additional Info:
Personality - Typical of most Investigators Hue can be rather cynical and arrogant, he is also very suspicious of the motives of others. Hue expects others to respect the law that he helps enforce so that confrontation will be avoided; however he is not the best negotiator nor the nicest person and will generally resort to agressive heavy handed tactics when confronted with problems or problomatic people.
Biography - Hue was originally a member of the Metropolitan Security Divison's Assault Unit, however when the MSD was dispanded he was, like many Assault Unit members, were honorablably discharged as only a select few were kept for the unit's smaller successor the Internal Security Division Second Assault Platoon. The reasons for Hue's discharge was that like many Assault Unit members; the ISD Commanders believed he would not be suitable for general police work, that and the ISD was forced to down size. Hue found work as a doorman for his favourite pub, his size and the fact he was a trained soldier proved useful in his ten years of private security. Hue was recalled by the ISD after a recent crisis in order to fill for personnel shortages.
Place of Residence - Double room flat; multi story appartment complex, Middle Tier.
Occupation - Sargent with the Sixth Field Platoon; Public Security; Internal Security Divison; Investigators.
Abilities - Hue is a trained soldier and police officer; despite his looks he is in excellent physical condition as would be expected for a man of his line of work. Like all Investigators Hue is a magic user however he has been trained to focus these abilities to use his Kubus and Skokat thus his manipulation of magic is rather limited when compared to some of the Investigators' or Isolon Fist battle mages. Hue has also undergone extensive firearms training.
Equipent:
Kubus: The Kubus or Investigator's rubix cube is a unique personal defence weapon utilised by all Internal Security Division field agents. Each Kubus is custom made for the Investigator it is assigned to; the imprinting of the agent's thought signature, a psychic link, ensures only they can use it. The Kubus is made from an magic malleable alloy; this allows the Investigator to change the shape of the Kubus into a knife, or a restraining wire; which can be project to entangle a target up to 50ft away by mental/magic manipulation alone. An Investigator can store manna inside a Kubus and if need be release it at once; producing a powerful short ranged energetic discharge that can stun or even kill a human. It can also act as focusing point for the Investigator’s own spells thanks to small amount of Ascarlin used in its construction; though its effect isn't too dramatic it can make the difference in battle.
Skokat: The Skokat or shock staff is the main weapon used by Internal Security Division field agents. Like the Kubus a Skokat uses thought imprinting as it is made form similar alloy; though its malleable properties are limited to increasing or decreasing in length from two to four feet. Skokats store mana in a similar way to Kubus; releasing an electric charge when striking an object; the power of which is determined mentally by the wielder. One strike is usually enough to induce enough pain to incapacitate most humans, rather like a taser. The Skokat can be split in half and attached to a Kubus; turning both into an effective ranged stun gun; the advantages are that unlike normally not all the mana stored in the Kubus is lost allowing for multiple shots to be fired at a much longer range; however the power of each shot is decreased somewhat.
Body Armour: The segmented cuirass and bevor are rated to take multipul hits from standard melee weapons and small arms, while providing some magical resistance.

| Well, here's mine, There's really no difference in it from the one in "Journey of a Drow". I kept Geeran's mech specs in there in case this does leave Negav tho. Let me know if this is unsuitable, - Spoiler:
Name: Geeran Holden Nickname: The Steel Assasin Race: Human Age: 19 Height: 6 ft 2 inches Weight: about 192 pounds
Apperance: Geeran is a slightly tall and slim to medium built young man with medium length black hair thats spiked up and back in a few places. Wears his pilot sout almost all the time, which is black exept for the sleeeves which are red and lined purple. Helmet matches this color scheme.
Personality: Normally, Geeran is a good, kind natured person towards people he sees as innocent. Well mannered and honest, can be hot tempered sometimes, especially when he is interrupted from working on his machines, but otherwise a good kid.
This changes when he gets into his suit to hunt... Towards Felaryan predators, Geeran is utterly cold, ruthes and violent... This anger is a tempered spear that he uses too destroy what he considers to be the enemy... Those that would do harm to the innocent for selfish and utterly unfeeling reasons. It is very hard to stop him from dispensing what he considers justice, which is why most people steer clear of him when he is preparing for a mission, and definintely don't try to persuade him from stopping his mission... This normally gets a very chilling stare from him that freezes most people in their tracks.
Skills, Strengths and Abilities: He is an ordinary human in just about every way outside of his Machines. He is an exellent engineer and mechanic, capable of everything from field patch and weld jobs for most machines, to extensive construction and upgrading for his machines. Also displays seemingly supernatural skills in piloting his unit. Also gifted with an incredible strength of will and sense of right and wrong. He is an expert survivalist, fighter, and combat strategist. His uncanny fighting capabilities have saved his live more tan once, but because they are untrained, and for the most part still untested, his actual combat skill is the source of much speculation among the various other mercenaries and bounty hunters. Geeran is also a gifted singer, but this skill is never employed, he uses it only to remember the people of his village, singing soft melancholy songs.
Background story: Geeran was once just a small boy living in one of the numerous, but separated villages of Humans that seem to rise and fall all over Felarya. He lived near the Dridder Forest at the foot of the Ascarlin Mountains. His village, known as Kayton, prospered for some time since the fall of Ur-Sagol due to the intelligent use of high technology, various magics, and good politics, striking a considerably advantageous deal with the local predators, especially the Dridder clans for resources in exchange for protection. However, on one particularly calm night, a sudden explosion crippled Kayton's defences, and almost immediately the village was assaulted by every nearby predator in the area, including many of the formerly friendly ones. having witnessed the death of his family and friends at the hands of former friends of his village, Geeran fled.
Geeran had managed to escape this nightmare scenario with only a handfull of villagers and soldiers, trekking their way to Negav in a damaged armoured vehicle, and losing another 3 people to the forest perils.
The horror Geeran had experienced during these days shaped who he is now irrevocably... He began a crusade that would never end, and using his knowlege of technology and his tempered hatred to practice and build mecha suits that could be used to claim his vengence. However, Geeran had also come under the wing of a particularly ancient and powerful sorcerer known as Malacai III, a wise old wizard who understood the natural balance of Felarya, and it's inhabitants. This wizard had forged several friendly relations with many of the sentient beings far and wide, including predators. His widom is as valued as that of Vivian's. Malacai had retired partially to Neegav for obscure reasons, but remains partly active for the natives as a guide.
Malacai had taken particular pity on Geeran, as the youngest survivor, he was alone. The others being adults did not wish to leave Geeran alone in the city, but had problems themselves, and where forced to abandon him to the homeless streets alone. Malacai took him in, and tutored him as best he could. The old wizard had refrained from teaching the boy any magics though, as Geeran displayed a burning hatred for the predators he deemed guilty of murder, and the wizard feared Geeran would use the knowlege of magic he would aquire for evil purposes.
Many years passed, and Geeran had learned much, but his old hatreds burned ever hotter the more horror stories he heard from the various travellers that come to Neegav from all over Felarya.
Eventually, he had completed construction of several dangerously powerful machines, his weapons of vengence and justice. Malacai could do nothing to disuade Geeran from this path, and the boy launched a terribe series of assaults against the natives. Throughout the years, the wizard had sought to instil in Geeran the knowlege of the balance, and the flow of nature in Felarya, but the memories of that night burned into Geeran's heart so brightly, they could not penetrate.
Ever since then, he has been using these Robotic menaces to hunt down and destroy as many predators as he could find, and his first victims, where the ones surrounding the ruins of Kayton. In a single night, he layed waste to almost all of the countryside, especially those who tried to fight him. It was a severe bloody battle, and by it's conclusion, Geeran had claimed victory, but at a severe toll... his machine was badly damaged, it's head and weapon arm severed, and several systems where forcibly shut down, or operating at minimal performance... he had to retreat before he was overwhelmed.
His navicomputer was non functional, life support was damaged, and ammunition was short... Geeran was lost, and it took days to find his way back, several scrapes with life and death per day had drained him, but his incredible willpower and survival instincts carried him and his broken machine home... finally.
Since this time, Geeran has been developing more and more machines, testing them, and using them in his missions. He had learned much from his initial conflict with the Dridders, and other predators ever since, developing evermore complex and powerful machines. This caused a bout of dispair in Malacai, watching Geeran degenerate into a hatemonger and war hawk... secretely he bagan plotting ways to force Geeran to stop, but eventually this changed into a scheme to forcibly instil in Geeran the understanding he needs, and for that to happen, there was only one way...
There has been several occasions when he has spared a predators, this instance occured when the child of his target attempted to stop him from attacking her mother. The tiny naga had wrapped herself around the foot of his machine, pounding on it with her fists, crying and begging for him to stop hurting her mother.
Because the girl had never harmed a human in her life, Geeran treated her as an innocent... For that reason alone, he knew she would not survive on her own, and halted his attack.
"Thank your child for your survival..." he had coldly said to the adult, and leaving them both behind without another word.
Geeran's developed a sense of honour in this way, he will not attack those who have not committed the crime of killing, and so only those predators who have partaken in the consumption of sentient innocent life would ever face his wrath, likewise, if an innocent is on the field of battle, and depended on a guilty one, his honour would leave him to value the lives of the innocent more than the death of the enemy. In his heart, those who are not guilty should not suffer the punishments intended for the guilty, and likewise, even the guilty deserve a second chance to change, but only if there is a cause for such a change, like the protection of the innocent.
This display of honour for the innocent had convinced Malacai that Geeran was not entirely lost, and has since then refined his plan for Geeran, now the wizard was waiting for the right time to bring it to fruition. Only when Geeran has finally understood what it means to be a Felaryan, will the wizard impart upon the boy his entire vast knowlege and power... a power that is only to be used for the greater good...
Weaknesses: Easily bated, Aggressiveness, Incompassionate towards others during combat, Is very succeptible to magic that is NOT direct energy attacks, Psychic power, is hamstrung by his idea of justice and honour.
Posessions: Besides the vast multitude of war machines he has built, Geeran posesses very few things. He always wears a small locket with a picture of his family inside. other than this one item, he has a Diary and a photo album that he rescued from the remains of his village when he escaped the predators that assulted his village. He usually wears a protected flight suit along with his own customised survival armour. it carries everything he needs, from food supplies and equipment, to advanced weapons and repair kits for whatever machine he is currently piloting. He usually carries a small plasma pistol and about 4 plasma grenades for personal protection when working outside of his machines. each machine also carries enough food supplies and camping equipment to last Geeran up to a month in complete isolation in the Felaryan wilderness, Or a week if rationed amongst 3 or 4 other people.

Hehe, it's fine. I'm by no means strict on bios. Hopefully the others will write down soon, but if not, we can start in with three people and let them catch up. Or, even start their own subplot. Really, come to think of it, as many people as want can join - its a big city. Anyways, yeah, I'll do the kick-start post in a bit. | |

| The bar was located on a steep street, right between Lower and Middle Tiers. It was called "The Neko's Tail". The name was ambiguous - the sign featured a rather lewd caricature of a neko girl bent over, looking out into the street, attempting to draw in any sort of crowd - tired Adventurers or workers from below, or bored folk from above.
Inside it was less exciting than the exterior promised. A standard long bar, made of stone. An area for people to sit and small tables to drink, eat the cheap fare, or smoke. A few nekos idly played darts. A pair of elven girls walked out, obviously not impressed by the appearance of the clientele.
A slender man, face obscured by a large hat and glasses, staggered to the bar.
"More Gizerbrew." he stated flatly. "And don't water it down so much."
The inu barkeep looked doubtful for a moment, but the skevols convinced him to serve. The man took his drink and walked back to the table he had been sitting at. He paused, processing. Yes, it had been his table. And no, it was no longer vacant. A couple of rough looking neko and an pair of equally rough looking humans sneered at him.
"I was sitting here." he said in a tired voice, pulling his scarf down to sip his drink.
"Yeah and now yer not!" retorted one of the humans quickly.
"Alright." said the man. "Look, I'm not one of those noble "I really don't want to fight, but I will stoically stand my ground until you provoke me - people". I am drunk and pissed off tonight. So shove off, because I DO want to fight. I would love nothing more than wiping this place with your faces."
There was a brief, stunned silence, before the more massive, leonine neko stood up and swung at him, eager to end it quickly. The man ducked and threw his drink in the face of his opponent, before kneeing him in the groin. The other three leapt up and rushed. The man was quicker than a human ought to be and fought pretty dirty. He clearly had the upper hand, until the nine other members of the same gang wandered in at that time, one of them bashing him over the head with a bar stool. He managed to claw his way out - into a corner.
"He bit me!" cried one of the original aggressors.
"I'm a vamp, s'wat I do. you attack me, I get a share of your blood. Ancient vamp rules."
"Oh shit!" said the terrified human. "Am I gonna become a vampire?!"
"No, dipshit, you're not going to become a vampire" said one of the newcomers, a short inu with pointed ears, smacking him over the head. "But we don't take kindly to your kind around here."
"Oh, I'm sorry. Guess I better leave." said the man.
The gang leader laughed. "Hehe... sure. But first we're gonna beat the shit out of you and rob you blind. You'll be leaving here in a bodybag."
"Well, shit." replied the man. He could easily take four of them, even eight. He could probably take them all - in an open area. Right now he was crowded in - trapped. Plus they were armed with lengthy weapons, more reach than the knife he drew. And the barkeep seemed to be doing squat to try to break up the fight - probably related to this punk.
The gang advanced, cautiously but surely. Unless something happened soon, Samiel realized he was going to be testing the limits of how much his vampire physique could recover from. Likely passing that limit.

| One of the few other occupants of the tavern was sitting at the far end of the bar. This particular young man had been there for the past hour before the scuffle began, he had been ordering a semi-steady supply of water and juices during that time, for he was not yet of drinking age at the tender age of 19. yest at that same time, he had the weathered apperance and the haunted eyes of a veteran of the wild lands beyond Negav's protected borders. And it was those memories that brought Geeran here, either to just sit and think, or try to forget. Nobody knew, as few ever approached the young man.
His hour long train of thought was suddenly interrupted by the loud declaration of one of the other patrons: "Yeah and now yer not!" and that caused Geeran to turn his head slightly and look at the ensuing melee.
Geeran was rather impressed despite himself with the man's combat skill, and he turned slowly to watch more with a stoic expression.
That was until more men had arrived and turned the tables...
Geeran's subtle movement to his holster went unnoticed...
"Hehe... sure. But first we're gonna beat the shit out of you and rob you blind. You'll be leaving here in a bodybag."
"Well, shit."
When those last words where spoken, Geeran's hand flashed out, in it's grasp was his trusted Plasma Pistol, where he proceeded to let three quick bursts flare bitween the lone man and the gang of ruffians.
"I'm in the middle of drinking here gentlemen, and your disturbing my train of thought. That makes me VERY angry. You want to cowardly attack a lone man 12 on 1, talk about robbing him and putting him in a body bag, you picked the wrong time and place... Now, I may let you scamper away with your worthless hides un-vapourised, if you pay your dues and depart immediately... Or else you'll be joining those melted holes in the floor. Make your choice gentlemen..." Geeran spoke in a low and dangerous tone that spoke volumes as to what he thought of these men... It was the same voice he used with Predators during his hunts, and anyone who was with him during that time would know he would not hesitate.
His left hand reached his opposite hip, either for another weapon or one of the grenades on his belt, and his eyes focusted keenly for even the slightest twitch the wrong way, waiting to see if any of them where reaching for a gun themselves... | |

| Hue brought his squad to a halt outside the Neko's Tail bar, their patrol route brought them right to the border of the Lower Tier, as far as he was concerned this area was best left to one of the other policing forces but orders were orders. ISD command recently became aware and was in the process of tackling an illigeal extortion opperation being carried out by a group fronting themselves as a citizen milita. Hue's patrol had been tasked with informing the local business and bars while acting as part of the dragnet to catch any of the bandits that may be lurking in the area.
"Anyone fancy a drink?" Hue asked his subordinates as he eyed the bar, reaching over to open the door slightly; the stunned faces of his squad were half hidden by the metal bevors but their verbal surprise was all too clear.
"Excuse me sir?" one of the constables asked, taken a back by his sargent's suggestion.
"For fuck sake lads, you're officers in the Public Security of the ISD, have a look inside that bar!" Hue responded angrily. To him such incompitance was inexcusable, but prehaps he could put it down to this squad being realitivly green; afterall there weren't many ex-MSD agents left in the organisation.
"Looks to be a standard bar quarel sarge, nothing that I think would require our intervention. Wait, seems that poor bastard is ready to start a fight; well he's either pissed out of his head, is hiding something, or worse; both." Came back the analysis; much to Hue's satisfaction.
"Ok lads, we have a potentially violent situation on our hads, while usually I'd let them kill each other, this is still the Middle Tier and people aren't to fond of finding dead bodies in their local." Hue responded, hoping their presence alone would be enough to defuse tensions; if not he and his squard were more than prepared to deal with any violence.
"Sir someone just opened fire! Looks to be an energy weapon." yelled one of Hue's men as he pulled his skokat from its scabbard before combining it with his kubus in anticipation of the coming actions.
"Right, sublime grenades then open up with your skokats." Hue ordered as his men rolled the spherical devices into the room though the open door and windows; upon activation the main body of the grenade began to rapidly effervesce into thick orangey yellow clouds which filled the bar. The gas only acted as a mild lachrymator on its own however it's true purpose was to increase the area effect of the Investigators' mana based weapons.
Hue and his officers quickly took their firing stance; confident the gas had reached the back of the inteior they repeatedly opened fire with their skokat/kubus weapons; the pink arcs of energy bolting into the bar before spreading in all directions; the cloud conducting the energies into anyone in contact with the gas giving them a painful incapaciting electric shock. Hue stepped forward and wrenched the door fully open to allow most of the gas to escape; holding his skokat infront of him he entered the bar, his squad covering his advance. After his first few steps, two more followed him in, taking position on both his left and right flank; the three officers advanced cautiously as a yellow haze still lingered in the bar.
"While I'm not sorry for what my men and I just did, I would like someone to explain to me why we intervened. In other words who stared this and who opened fire?" Hue's voice boomed over the gorans of those recovering from the assault.

| The gang members cowered behind whatever cover they could find. The had not expected a stranger to start opening fire with a plasma weapon, and less so that the goddamn ISD would show up.
The barkeeper popped up from behind the bar.
"He did it!" he shrieked, pointing at Samiel. "Him and his psycho friend with the gun!"
The gang members all nodded in agreement, though they were all on the ground in various states of paralysis.
"Oh, for fucks sake." said Samiel, standing blatantly in the open, being obviously unaffected by the magical assault, unlike pretty much everyone else around him. Everyone in the bar must be related! They all nodded in agreement that yes, it was that vampire's fault, as well as the man with the plasma pistol.
"Racists!" he called out at them all. "Have you no shame!"
He looked at the ISD people.
"Look officer... this was all a misunderstanding... How about everyone just relaxes?" he said.
He then proceeded to run with inhuman speed at the nearest window and make a flying leap out of it, rolling into the street.
"Bwahahahaha! Screw you, pigs!" he laughed maniacally, running down the street. "Vivé le revolution! Down with the magiocrats! Fuck Oth!"
He then proceeded to forget he was on an ascending street, vaulted over a ledge and realized he was much higher up than he though.
"Oh fuck" he said, before he plummeted, impacting the stone pavement. While such a fall was hardly enough to kill a vampire, it did leave him entirely incapacitated. | |

| Hue and his men looked rather unsurprised at the vampire's bizarre exit, not really caring what became of him providing he made himself scarce. From what Hue could tell the vampire was the one the Intelligence Division had nicknamed 'Shadow Arrow' of course he couldn't be certain. While Shadow Arrow had a deffinate attitude problem and was considered a lose cannon, the Intelligence Division found some of his work useful for their own means, and would prefer if he remained 'active.'
"Just leave him, I'm not going to deal with some wise ass vampire, not when I can focus on what's infront of me." Hue announced to his men as the full eight man squad entered the bar; surrounding the fallen gang members. One of the officers armed with a shotgun stood over the young man who still had is hand gripped tightly around his pistol.
"Sir he's still armed." he called out to the sargent.
"Disarm him then... That goes for all of them, make sure they are carrying nothing, strip them naked if you have to." Hue ordered as he turned towards the bar.
The constable kicked the pistol out of Geeran's hand before stepping on the young man's chest with is boot, keeping his shotgun aimed at his face.
"I don't want any funny business from you son, all I want to know is what happend here. Answer my questions honnestly and I'm sure the sargent will be reasonable." the officer questioned Geeran, even though he wasn't sure if he was conscious or not.
Hue's men began their search of the gang members, most were still too weak to put up any resistance, those that did were immediatly struck with skokats; the long truncheon like weapons sending further painful shocks into their bodies.
"Eighteen knives, two primitive hand guns and it looks at least one of them had a stone enchanted with a fire rune. Looks like they were ready to do some damage sarge."
"So are these boys regulars of yours?" Hue asked the bar keeper as he loomed over him tapping his fingers on the stone surface.

| Geeran took on a look of stoic indifference before replying.
"Sir, I witnessed the entire altercation. The Vampire who had just made his... Hasty exit despite himself... Was simply returning to his table with his drink when those 4 men..." Geeran indicated the original 4 ruffians "decided to clam that same table for themselves, and would not budge when asked to vacate, in a rather rude fasion... Now, a small melee ensued bitween the 5, when the other 8 men entered the bar, who then proceeded to smash the vampire with a barstool, bringing the total to 12 men against 1. Finally, this idiot..." Geeran indicates the gang-leader" decides to puff his chest out and claim how he was going to kill the vampire, rob his corpse and drag him out in a body bag. Thats when I intervened, I fired 3 shots with my Plasma Pistol into the floorboards bitween the gang and the unarmed Vampire, and thats when you men showed up" Geeran concluded.
"As for who I am; my name is Geeran Holden, I'm a registered Predator Hunter and Mecha Pilot." Geeran added. | |

| The barkeep nodded. "Yeah, yeah, that's right, all that he said. I've never seen most of 'em - they're some rough gang, from the Pit most likely!"
The leader of the gang looked at him distraught. "Uncle..!"
"Shut up!" barked the barkeep, literally. "I don't know these people! Get them out of my establishment! And make them pay for the mess!"
--
Samiel groaned, sitting up. Having your bones knit themselves together was never pleasant. But, on the bright side, the ISD wasn't chasing him, like he thought they would be. Huh. That made everything easier. Then again, it could all be part of their twisted plans. He had recognized the leader of the squadron. Crap, were they letting him go on this just to twist his arm later into doing more of their dirty work?
Still - so far, no jail time. And, the best thing was, those stupid ISD people couldn't contact him if they wanted too.
He laughed at their arrogance as he stumbled towards the nearest Underground access point, ready to head home.
It was only when he reached his small underground apartment and felt his coat that he realized it was missing.
--
On the bar, carelessly left there, was a sturdy card, now flecked with a little bit of blood.
Samiel Jeltus
Private Investigator
Underhome Apartment Block, #143
Messaging Code NU-28475
--
Samiel sighed and shrugged. Probably dropped the card on the way home. He only carried it around for when he got so drunk he forgot where he lived. Even sober he could barely remember his Messaging Code
