Escape The Streets

Escape The Streets

0 INK

Living in the guild isn't the best. But that's the only way to survive. The only way out is to become a Wetboy. What's a Wetboy you ask? Well READ INSIDE! and find out! (RPers Needed!)

1,162 readers have visited Escape The Streets since DA_SHADOW_PHOENIX created it.

Introduction

You want to be a Wetboy?
Image
"When we take a life, we are taking nothing of value."-The Wetboy code.


What is a Wetboy?
A Wetboy? a Wetboy is an assassin, but not any ordinary assassin wewilding blades and wearing black and dealing death. They are the ancient assassins, they use "the talent" a gift giving at birth, a talent to use magic, some are gifted in different ways. The most Famous of the Wetboys of Leria was Durzo Blint, he had the ability to create awe inspiring illisions, making people see things, make himself ivisible. It's no easy task though, you don't just all of a sudden start summoning cretures to be your minnions or hurling fireballs, no. it's like a muscle, it needs energy, it can be strengthened by practising, and if it isn't used for a long time it becomes weak. (for exaple, making yourself invisible would take alot of energy, but wearing some camoflaugfe and making yourself silent would be alot simplar and easier.)

Image
The story
In this RP there will be three stages.
1. this is the stage where you are a guild rat, a child (11-14) living in the guild, it is the only safe haven in the streets, from well, the guild it's self. the only problem is you have to pay to be a member, and you are poor. When you can't pay up you pay with beatings from the guild heads, who are ever getting more and more abusive. eventually you can't take it anymore, but the only way out is to become a Wetboy. This stage has to do with you finding a Wetboy that will take you as an apprentice. (there are no perfect killers, if you kill someone, end their life, you won't feel so great) this has to do with you impressing the Wetboy, but there will only be two wetboys. (I will play both.) and three guild rats that want to escape, so one of you will end up not amking it and hating the others (turning hopefully into a villain)
Image-the guild (it's in the sewers.... gross)

2. This stage has to do with your apprenticing, and if you wearn't chosen how hard it is in the guild you are now 13-16 and learning what it is to be a Wetboy/gal, i don't expext perfect get it the first time kinda thing, you were a poor person living on the street, you don't know how to read. make it a little interesting to see the challenge of it all, I will push you. this is also when you discover your talent, remeber, no one learns a new thing (like magic) in a day

3. This stage is the final stage you are now 15-18 and you are becoming more independant, this is when you become you're own person, you are free. but there is a problem, you discover plots of people to kill your former master, they were like a parent to you. will you find answers and get revenge, or will the one who got regected be plotting it? (hopefully yes, i need someone willing to play a villain, don't join if you aren't it can go anyway I disire!)

5. please have a minimum of 80 words per post, and a max of 350, let's be honest nobody reads extremly long posts.
6. If you rtead all of this put "May the shadows guide you." in your character sheet soemwher else i will scrap it.
7. Thry to have fun, if you aren't tell me and I will make it a little more interesting.
8. I will be playing all NPC characters, so when you talk to someone on the street say for example "Johny saw a woman on the street. 'excuse me ma'm' he said 'where is the store?'.... then i would respond as the lady. you literally control NO ONE except your own character, when you are interacting with someone the post minimum is down to 50 words, i know it's hard to write alot when you are just talking to someone.

Ulfunn drew the knife revealing the initials "I know that you know who this belongs to and where he is. I want his name and where he lives." Ulfunn's eyes were cold and seemed lifeless he was never exactly this way before but his goal was clear now and he couldn't let this man leave now. With this man so close to him he could almost feel the hunters blood running down his hands. In his mind the killing was already done the man dead laying in his own blood.

"Ah, R.T. Robert Tomlein." Zaun said with a smile. "Information isn't free but seeinga s you may one day be vital to me I will give it to you, this time." Zaun said with smirk. "He lives in the north end, as a rich tradesman. He sells pelts and other, more illeagle things. he's a poacher, I know he lives by the Monroe family." Zaun damned his own lack of information for someone he knew. "that's all I'll tell you. You need to collect the rest of your information yourself. Know this. An assassination isn't supposed to be pretty, make sure he's dead, a cut of someones throat is too hard to acheive, cut off an arm or hand first. May the Night Angels guide you." zaun said as he threw up his cloak in Ulfunn's face, it had pelletis in it that would make him temporarally blind, a sort of poison that Zaun and all wetboys were masters at making. Zaun simply strolled back to the shadows, it would have looked to Ulfunn like he was surrounded by smoke.

Ulfunn moved as soon as the smoke cleared towards the north end it didn't take him long to get there the fact was that he didn't know where the man was. Ulfunn saw a beggar on the street. Ulfunn moved towards the man making sure to hide his face from the man "Robert Tomlein lives by Monroe family where is he?" Ulfunn showed a few coin for payment. He knew that beggars where a good source for information if you had coin to spare on them.

Ulfunn nodded he moved into the estates grounds and he tried the back door only to find it locked. Looking at building he summed up the entries as well as exits and a escape plan. Ulfunn decided the best way to enter the house was through the front door. Walking back to the front he opened the door which was unlocked he entered quietly and looked around and didn't find Robert Tomlein in the first room. Ulfunn closed the door behind him and he drew his knife seeing a light on he went to it and smothered it making the whole house dark to the point where only basic shapes were see able. Ulfunn moved to the bedroom he knew Robert Tomlein was black out drunk and was most likely sleeping.
((I didn't know if I am allowed to go ahead and kill the guy but I wanted to double check with you))

Ulfunn heard Robert Tomlein as well as smelled him taking no time for hesitation he walked over to Tomlein and drove his knife in to the mans heart. Tomlein woke up and tried to push Ulfunn off but Ulfunn used the knife to keep Tomlein down. Ulfunn whispered "Know you know what they felt as you killed them." he pulled out the knife and drove it down again and again then slit the hunters throat. Then cut his stomach open spilling out his entrails and releasing a foul smell that made Ulfunn gag. Once finished Ulfunn felt relived and numb after a while he got up and cleaned his blade with Tomlein's clothes and then he searched the house for a quick scan before he left. He found more coins and a will that addressed the holder of the will everything that Tomlein owned This will come into use I could give it to that wetboy as thanks. Ulfunn went to the back and slipped back out into the night without incident. When Ulfunn was back he laid down and closed his eyes. He dreamed of Robert Tomlein over his sleeping body and cutting open his throat. Ulfunn woke up with a jolt.

((Sorry I was double checking))

Damien pulled his hood down as he walked to the guild. It had been way too long since he visited. He never really met the kids, only watched them. They were much older now, and probably much more skilled. The stench of the sewers caused Damien to wrinkle his nose gag slightly. He hated the location of the place. It was awful, but hidden. He walked into the guild and looked around. It seemed pretty quiet.

Zaun once gain returned to the guild. it was the middle of the night, but a wetboy rarely sleeped, if he had any kind of conscience anyway, all the souls Zaun had taken would plauge his dreams. Cursing him. Zaun was sitting in a corner opposite of the entrance to the guild. He was waiting for the children to awake. He needed to talk to Ulfunn. He hadn't relized what he had done. He was spotted. Both by the Begger, and some maids in the manor who heard the commotion. He had acheived his kill, it was a good kill, but it was executed sloppy.

Zaun then looked up. He saw another Wetboy. One he knew well. He had helped to teach this one. He was one who discovered his Talent late. Zaun had helped him tap into it. But other than that he didn't know him. Zaun sat where he was. He didn't know if this wetboy was here for the same reason he was, or to try and kill him. And if it were the second one, then he was doing a terrible job.

Ulfunn was wake the whole night he couldn't sleep he got up and walked over to Zaun. Pulling out the deed "It say the holder of this is given everything have it. For the information." Ulfunn looked terrible like he hasn't slept the whole night but he stood strong he wasn't going to be defeated by his own emotions. Over time he will kill again and with each kill he will learn to ignore his feeling of dread. Ulfunn want to be kept busy have his mind on something "Is there something you need?" he knew that a wetboy doesn't go somewhere without have a purpose in mind.

"Yes actually. Go put that deed back. if they track it here you will be killed for murder. That was also a good kill, But you let yourself be spotted. Now people know you to be involved with the murder. Way to go boy. A proper job takes weeks even months of planning. And you just ran in there and screwed it all up." Zaun said with a unforgiving face. He couldn't stand this. This boy was smarter than that, Zaun knew this.

"Why did you kill him?" Zaun asked a little curious. He was always digging for information, hoping to find a gem or two.

Ulfunn looked at Zaun "He killed the only family I knew. I was raised by a pack of wolves until one day I returned to the den to find every single one of them killed. Even the pups I found his knife in one of the bodies. He murdered my only family and for that he paid with his life." Ulfunn took a deep breath it was good to tell someone what happened. "I will go back tonight and return the deed. The beggar saw my face the maids only saw a dark shape enter and leave his room. I will kill the beggar and if you think I should the maids as well. I don't have the money or the talent to point the murder away from me." Ulfunn felt numb about killing the others he knew he could do it this time he will be paying attention to his surroundings.

Re: Escape The Streets

Sorry, if you are willing to make two characters maybe. there has to be one guild rat left out. sorry...

Re: Escape The Streets

Hey, I was just wondering if you can have a female character for the Wetboy? Or like, a female disguised as a male. If I'm correct this relates to a book I may have read, and there was nothing in that (that I can remember) or here about the gender requirements.

Re: Escape The Streets

There is still a point in training, even if your character can fight. Everyone has room to improve.

Re: Escape The Streets

Now it shows before it wasn't there :p

Re: Escape The Streets

I have no clue how to pm or make friends this site changed alot so what do i do to send a pm

Re: Escape The Streets

WE NEED MORE RPers! invite your friends guys.

Re: Escape The Streets

Fixed the fact he knows how to fight all he has now is the capability of fighting (strong physical build)

Re: Escape The Streets

guys a problem with all the character sheets, you're characters can't be good at fighting. if they are already good there's no point in training.

Re: Escape The Streets

thanks shade! you may notice a certain aspect of NPC characters that may or may not have been inspired by you ;)

Re: Escape The Streets

Nice RP, DA_SHADOW_PHOENIX. :-) The story is interesting.

Re: Escape The Streets

thanks band geek, and yep you have 48 hours.

Re: Escape The Streets

Might I reserve a guild rat, please?

Re: Escape The Streets

thanks that's much appreciated, i aslo noticed another problem, please reread the rules.

Re: Escape The Streets

I'm not sure if I can find a picture of my FC in clothing like that, but if I can't I'll make something on Polyvore and link to it in her sheet. <3

Re: Escape The Streets

holy bandgeek! that was quick! and it looks pretty good, but please remeber this takes place in a "middle earth" type setting, a fantassy, please if you would be so kind to add a picture of Johny in her usual clothes or something as such that would be great.

Re: Escape The Streets

Submitted a character sheet. Tell me if there is anything that needs changed.

Re: Escape The Streets

You have a reservation, which I forgot to mention only lasts 48 hours. and also don't join if you are afraid of your character becoming a "villain" because it is quite possible.

Re: Escape The Streets

May I reserve one of the guild rats? Or should I just send in an application?
