The Knights Next Door

[I think I am here. he/him]

Quote

Ene, my character profile is on page 7  

Rob opened the door quietly, and entered into the house. “Hello, all,” he said, and plopped a bag of something on the kitchen countertop.

“I got croissants, if any of you want one.” He left the croissants where they were and walked over to the kitchen, pouring himself a cup of water.

It feels like most all of us live with Doc. I almost feel sorry for him We have to be pretty exhausting.

 

[Bookish Ocelot she/her]

Sorry I was gone for so long. I guess I live in the wrong timezone. 

"I'll take a croissant." Leona said. She opened the pantry and smiled. There was Nutella! She retrieved a croissant off the counter and then slathered it with a liberal dose of Nutella. Yes.  said Onyx. I love Nutella. 

"You- you can't eat."

I can taste it through the cognitive realm.

Shadesmar. Which made her realize she had training. And homework.

Sry. A lot of people were online at the same time. And don't worry about your timezone. Usually I miss about everything

"But I don't know it."

Mahad repeated.

"I would tell you, if I knew."

He pushed the leave closer.

"Maybe try it?"

Shana looked at Ben and opened her book, showed him what she had to do for homework.

Andrew stopped his wheelchair in the middle of crosswalk. Oh, yes, I forgot to call Ben.

He picked his phone, the old, veird and heavy thing made of three or four normal phones, and called Ben ignoring car drivers that started shout on him. Then he finally slowly moved to the sidewalk.

@Lunamor

Glint moved towards the leaf, then tried to move it. Nothing. All he did was move on top of it. 

==========

“Oh, I know this!” Ben said happily, “You just need to-“ His phone started ringing. “Oh, sorry, just a sec.” He answered it.

Jordan shook his head. Storming bondsmiths had it all backwards. If the time came, someday, he may just snap. It would be for the good of the law though.

Well, if you Snapped this would be a Mistborn RP... 

Also, I'm just going to say that Ruby hangs out at Doc's after school for a few hours. Becca probably showed her the place, but she doesn't get to come as often. I'm not actually sure what kind of Radiant she is, but I don't think it matters, 'cause she's not going to be in this very much. 

 

Ruby walked through the door and kicked off her tennis shoes. Soccer practice had gone a bit long today. 

[Sherlock Holmes he/him]

Ax burst through the door dramatically, sweating and with his arms aching like hell. Climbing hurt. He stalked over to the table and sat down on it.

[old man moomba he/him]

Doc shoved the backdoor open and strode outside. He walked accross the patio, past the pool, and down the steps into the yard proper. He quickly made his way accross the yard to his favorite spot: the overlook. I was a stone terrace tat provided a beautiful of downtown, the suburbs, and the sound. 

Doc plopped down in a chair, there were two chairs positioned to look out over the city, a firepit, and a small minifridge. He took a sip of Sprite and closed his eyes, thinking.

Gahh, I haven't got my character yet. You guys are going too fast. 

Here. I'll start alone (away from Doc's house) but find my way there eventually.

What was the decision on how stormlight was recharged?

What season is it? Has anyone declared that yet?

And finally, does anyone have a good idea for an honorspren name?

Draug crouched on the edge of the building, looking down at the street below. He shivered. Stormlight would warm him, if he drew it in, but he was hiding right now, lying in wait for the enemy.

Hopefully his sudden drop into the river had convinced them they'd finished him off. They hadn't bothered following him to check, which was a good sign. But maybe they just didn't care.

He shivered again, but not from the cold.

In my headcannon it was late winter.

Not super cold, but pretty rainy.

 

[xinoehp512 he/him]

Quote

Wait, where are we?

 

[old man moomba he/him]

Quote

Seattle. 

But there are lots of Radiants here.

 

[xinoehp512 he/him]

Quote

How prevalent, do you think?

 

[old man moomba he/him]

Quote

Probably 1 in every 50,000 normal people.

It's the same in other specific cites around the world as well.

Gaaaaaaa I still need to make my character! I’ll try to do that today.

"Hi, Ben. Have you noticed the voidbringer?" Said Andrew in quiet voice. "She was seen by one drunk near our favourite park. Just wanted to tell you."

Andrew avoided crashing into street lamp narrowly. "Tell B-smith."

"Oh, and I have bought very interesting book about ants. You should read it. Absolutely fascinating. Have you ever heard about ant-slavers? They cannot work so they steal eggs of other ants..."

“Voidbringer? Here?! I will tell him now!” He hung up in the middle of Andrew’s talk about ants. “SosorryIneedtogovoidbringerdocgah,” he apologized to Shana as he rushed out the door.

So, what are the Voidbringers like? They're probably going to be pretty important to the world and to the plot, so we should get that ironed out before going too far.

Some thoughts:

• I like the idea of them being human, and blending in with others in society.
• We could have this be a public or non-public battle; personally, I think it would be more interesting if it was a secret battle between underground Radiants and Voidbringers trying to invade.
• Perhaps they could be a society that could 'convert' people to be one of them somehow.
• Red eyes would be the sign that someone is a Voidbringer, I think. This could either be only when they use their powers or all the time.

Yeah, I like the idea of a secret war between Radiants and Voidbringers.  

And maybe higher ranked you become, the harder it is to hide your nature as a Voidbringer.

Shana got the her feet and rushed after Ben. Everything was better than maths.

I hope no-one minds I set the day

Molan woke up to insistant humming. A shifting pattern hovered in front of him. He rubbed his eyes.

"Molan," Fractal buzzed, "You've been unconscious for 10.3452 hours. You told me not to wake you, but..."

Molan shot up, somehow not hitting the Cryptic. "WHAT TIME IS IT?"

Fractal's pattern shifted nervously. "About 3 o'clock, the day is Saturday."

Molan sat back. He thought he had school. However, a bag suspiciously full of books and homework glared at him from the corner of his room. He looked at his pouch of stones. 

"Fractal," he said, "Why shouldn't I Soulcast my bag into kibble, and feed it to the local dogs?"

Fractal buzzed. "It would become a solid mass of kibble, not different pieces. Besides, you still aren't good at that aspect of Surgebinding, and, convening with human norms, you aren't familiar enough with the stuff to create it."

Molan would have grumbled, but Fractal would have heard it. She had gotten good at understanding all the various dialects of Complaining. 

So, he got up, and dressed. Sure, he would have liked to relax in pj's all day, Lightweaving them into normal clothes, but he was more productive when he was dressed.

Molan left the room, silently cursing himself for staying up late watching YouTube.

 

[Bookish Ocelot she/her]

Leona grabbed a set of infused gems, a knife, and her traditional pair of swords. The swords were about 2 and a half feet long, with one side of the blade curving inward. "I'm going with y'all! Don't leave me behind!"

Rob followed Leona, tapping her on the shoulder, completely oblivious to the context.

“Hi Leona. How was your day? And where are you and the others going?”

But there's still plot going on on Friday...

 

[Bookish Ocelot she/her]

"Rob? There's voidbringers and also I didn't want to do my homework so we're going to fight them grab your stuff let's go!" She half-walked half-jogged, her ankle was going to get her killed. Then she remembered she had transportation. She gasped. Stormlight rushed into her lungs, and the world darkened. She was in Shadesmar. She thought about where the Voidbringers would be, and then exhaled. The world lightened again and her feet hit solid ground, not just beads.

She looked around and saw nothing amiss. Just park benches. 

There it was. A Voidbringer. On first glance, it looked like a young woman with blond hair and blue eyes. But as she looked, she could see faint tendrils of red lightning crackling around its eyes.
