Dancing in the Streets of Babyl

Postby seruame » 08/23/2009 4:06 AM

The Plot
On Earth, there is a portion of the populace that is gifted (animal, human, doesn't matter. They all have minds, true?) with widely varied powers. Some are Dreamers, ones who can traverse the Dream Realm, Healers, who can mend wounds physical and soul-deep, Empaths, who feel and help manage the emotions of others, Guardian Souls, who protect those they love most, Shifters, who can change their form at will. Persecuted and attacked over the centuries, this small population of humans and animals that have unlocked their potential dwindled down to less than one hundred. There is something hunting them, preying on them while they work their powers on the physical world. The last safe haven for these gifted ones is the city of Babyl, where they are protected, body and soul, from the -things- that seek to wipe them out. And a horrifying thing about these creatures is they don't just end your life, they destroy the souls they find, to ensure that the Gift is not reborn into another body...
Only one soul has seen what is hunting and killing its fellow gifted peoples, and the creature's body is in a Coma, his/her mind wandering the streets of Babyl, but unable to speak or be seen by anybody who has fled there. This creature alone fought of a few of them, and lost its body to them, but not the soul. Fleeing to Babyl as fast as it could, the creature turned, to attempt to jump back into a different place on Earth, it found its way barred, unable to communicate with anybody. Until one day, a young girl with the soul of a blue, twin-tailed Kitsune arrived in Babyl the first time.
And with her came the Creatures.
Now, not even Babyl is safe from harm...

Personality:
Appearance:
Other:

Username: seruame
Name: Seru
Age: 14
Gender: Female
Species: Twin-tailed Kitsune
Gift/Power: Seru is a Dreamer and a shifter.
Personality: A little shy and very quiet, rarely speaking above a murmur, she enjoys dancing in the abandoned part of Babyl, where nobody really pays any attention.
Appearance: In her natural form, she is a blue furred fox, with a darker blue 'mane' of hair. She has rather large ears, almost like a fennec, and twin tails. She also wears braces on her front paws, with lapis lazuli stones embedded in them. She has brown eyes, too. In her human form, Seru is about 4'11, with the same mop of darker blue hair as her natural form, those same brown eyes and wrist bracers. She wears a light grey, unassuming tanktop, and black, chained pants. Her flesh is pale, and lightly freckled about the nose, cheeks, and shoulders. She rarely visits Babyl during its daytime, prefering twilight and the dark of night, as her eyes are severely light sensitive.
Other: She can see the Lost Ones as will-o'-the-wisps, and can use them as weapons against the creatures that have recently begun invading Babyl.

Username: Seruame
Name: Domsk
Age: Unknown
Gender: Male
Species: Unknown Creature
Gift/Power: N/A
Personality: Cruel and vicious to a fault, he rarely allows a soul to escape him. He was the one who beat back the original lost soul, and locked it into Babyl. He hates that he couldn't destroy it entirely, but now that Babyl is open to his kind, maybe he'll get the chance...
Appearance: A lizard-like creature with only his hind legs, a spiked tail that drags on the ground, and a wide, squarish head full of rather sharp teeth. He has no eyes, instead relying on his other senses to guide him about.
Other: His scales are made of something akin to shadows, and he seems to be immune to physical damage. (Magic, Dream or otherwise, is rather good against him, though.)

Username: potterchic
Name: Sibylla
Age: 1 Year
Gender: Female
Species: Cat
Gift/Power: Mainly a Dreamer, an extremely limited Shapeshifter (She can only go from a half human and back to a cat again), and a Healer who can only heal things like small scratches and bruises.
Personality: She seems to be a child prodigy, seeing as even though she is a somewhat adult cat, she turns into a part human 1 year old girl. Why this form would not be an adult is unknown, but she likes it, because she can be 'Sneaky and a spy'. In battle she's practically useless, unless you bring her to the Dream Realm. It's believed that someone with the Gift's body was destroyed (not by the Creature, because she still doesn't even know much about it. People are keeping her in the dark 'For her own protection'.), but not their soul, therefore this soul went into the cat's body at birth, passing on quite a bit of knowledge along with the Gift.

Sibylla is sarcastic, and hates nicknames (for herself. If you try to call her anything but Sybilla, she'll probably kick you. Although it doesn't hurt much. She doesn't want to hurt you so much that she'd go cat and pull out her claws or bite). She still holds the air of innocence of a child, although a mischevious child at that. Suspect her of something? Expect those big green eyes to look up at you asking 'How could you even think that?'. Don't fall for it.
Appearance: As a cat she's one of those grey ones with darker gray stripes, she's got white around the paws, the muzzle, and the tip of her tail. At the top of her head the grey fades to brown and back again. Her eyes are bright green. As a half human she's pale, a 1 year old, so therefore short with a large head. She still has her cats ears and tail, and long brown hair. She usually wears faded jean shorts/pants and a grey t-shirt.
Other: She admires the way that Seru can see the lost soul, and wishes she could, too.

Username: potterchic
Name: It's been so long since anyone's said it, it's hard for her to remember. Although she thinks it's Akira (I know, ironic, since it's Japanese for clear or bright.)
Age: When her body was destroyed she was in her early twenties, but without a body she finds it doesn't seem to matter much how old you are.
Gender: Female
Species: She WAS a human who could shapeshift into various birds. Now she's sort of just a spirit.
Gift/Power: Was a Shapeshifter, although that doesn't matter now. Now, she just goes back and forth from Babyl to the Dream Realm.
Personality: She's gentle, but a critic. She tends to be a bit skeptical. She surprisingly doesn't have to much of a vengeance for the Creature, she just wants it to be destroyed for the sake of others. She believe's it's too late for her.
Appearance: A will o' the wisp who takes on some sort of human like shape.
Other: The Lost Soul

A streak of blue darted through a forest of legs, silent save for her heartbeat, a steady, quick-paced thing that only occassionally hitched. Black paws kissed white sands, twin tails were held straight back from the body, also black-tipped. The creature had a fluffy mane of fur about her head, similar to her human form's hair. She was thin, even for a fox, and oddly-colored, but none of the people seemed to care that she was blue or even that she had two tails. Here was Babyl, the timeless city, with its grand buildings, like fine old gentlemen, standing proud and distinguished amoung the white streets. Further back, deeper into the city, were the more modern areas, with the sleek and curvy buildings of the twentieth century, further out, the older huts of thatched roofs, and beyond that, the farms and forests of old. Here, there was a little of everything, the best the planet had to offer, and accessible only to those the creative forces alone had deigned to grace this place.
Every so often, the fox-girl paused, and looked around, black ears perked, alert. Even though it seemed peaceful enough, now that the first Creature had broken through the sheilding of Babyl, invaded the city of the Lost, someone had to be alert enough to sound an alarm...Still, patrolling was boring, and Seru yawned slightly as she gazed about through wide brown eyes. Maybe her friends would show up soon, talk to her...Or she'd see the Soul that nobody else seemed to see...

A cat slunk towards the fennec fox, only recognizing her from behind by her two tails and her coloration. How she had avoided being stepped on was a mystery. She came up beside Seru, hardly keeping up. Come on, slow down! You can't seriously think that I'm some stray cat or something! she thought, wondering if Seru really DID think she was a stray cat. Or maybe she wanted to avoid her? Sibylla COULD be quite annoying...

Seru paused a moment, and sat on her haunches, to take a break, and to scent the air. She smiled at the familiar cat-smell of one of the people she knew, and whirled around to lick at the cat's face, a surprise attack. Her little tails were wagging back and forth oh so very happily. "Sibylla! Hey, girl!" she yipped out roughly in human tongue.

Sibylla slowed to a stop, realizing all too late what was happening, as Seru's tongue swept across her face. "I not dog." a childish voice said disdainfully at the 'Hey, girl.' remark, but only after the tongue bathing was done. Sibylla, although she could speak human very well as a human, had trouble grasping how exactly to move her cat lips and make noises that weren't meows. Therefore, she hardly ever spoke in complete sentences if you wanted to converse in human without turning into a human. The two of them probably COULD speak in their own languages, but it would be a rough translation. As in, Seru could say something had been taken, but Sibylla might think she said something along the lines of '<Insert name of something here> is bacon". Confusing, right?

Seru smirked, then sat back, and lifted a paw to pat the feline's head. "And what a cute not-dog you are, too...Whatcha been up to?" she asked, and waggled her tails a little slower. She knew that Sibylla didn't quite grasp her native tongue, so she'd stick with human.

Sibylla's ears went down a little bit; she purred slightly.

The closest thing a cat could make to a smirk appeared on her face. "Following." she looked around curiously, like cats tend to do. "Seen anything?"
