Yes indeed. Would you just want to post image links for descriptions on the characters? I have a pretty good form already written out and I'm feeling a little too lazy to write up her description at this point, lol

Name: Kasida Nydia Age: 21 Nationality: Italian, African-American Godly parent: Bellona Appearance: Jasmine Tookes (face-claim) Personality: Kasida holds herself up to high standards. She considers herself a leader since she feels she's capable of holding responsibility. She is a quick thinker, and, if focused, is able to plan out group attacks. When left to her own devices, she tends to be more of an introvert if there's nothing else to excite her. If she gets overconfident, she can get brash and very impulsive, often rushing into battle without much of a plan. Powers: Is able to give feelings and energy to comrades, has a knack for handling most weapons Weapons: a sword, two handguns, a leather jacket that is able to turn into full armor

(You're fine, I'm glad you're asking I would assume that he would have more familiarity with weapons in general, having an enhanced skill with a certain weapon, probably the ability to break things down into detail while in the midst of battle (kinda like seeing things in slow motion while you're in slow motion I guess) so yeah~)

Name: Apollyon Norcrosse Age: 23 Nationality: Scottish, hints of Italian Godly Parent: Ares Faceclaim: Kind of Bullets/Revenge-era Mikey Way (with a few tattoos and scars) Personality: Even though he does't really seem like it, Apollyon is one bold and dangerous dude. His name is a perfect fit for him as well, as Apollyon means 'the Destroyer' in Greek. He loves fighting and sparring, typical for an Ares descendant, and you can often find him dueling with another demigod. He is quick witted, sometimes making decisions that are not that intelligent, leading to an addition to the small collection of scars littering his body. More of his personality will be shown through roleplay. Powers: Brilliant shot with almost all sorts of rifles, the ability to break things down into minute detail. Weapons: Carries a backpack full of his 'toys', including an SKS and ammo, and some knives thrown in the mixture as well. A sword hangs off of his belt as well.
(tell me if the SKS part is a little much, i'll remove it/replace it with another thing if that's ok ^^)

(I like him, I don't know much about the weapon since I'm not a rifle nerd or anything, I guess it's okay since he has a knack for the type of weapon in the first place. I'll start off with a starter)
Kasida hated gargoyles. They were stupid, stubborn, and hard to kill. Still, she wasn't any better. It look a lot of strength out of her to kill one of them, but three more? No. She knew well enough that she would be overpowered soon enough. There was no plan, she didn't have the time to do such a thing! She let out a sharp growl before darting to the side of an alley where the monsters thundered past her and to where they thought she was going. Letting out a sigh, she stood once more and pulled out one of her guns, realizing that a deserted city like this was bound to be crawling with monsters. Well, it wasn't like she really cared at this point. She was worn out and ready to stab something other than those monstrosities.

(i guess the 'brilliant shot with almost all sorts of rifles' is a little gary stu-y... let's just say that's he not really much good with a lot else *sweats*)
(i am a bit of a rifle nerd lol, the sks (especially the sawed down version) could potentially fit into a rather large backpack... it's not that long of a rifle tbh)
Apollyon was stood upon the top of a nearby building, hissing with deep anger as he slid a round into the chamber of his rifle, raising it up to his shoulder and pulling the slide back, staring at the monsters which were chasing one of the only other true people he's seen in a while. Not minding if she was hostile or not, his finger squeezed down onto the trigger and with a loud bang the round shot out of the rifle, and Apollyon could see it hit his desired target. But to his dismay, it wasn't enough to down the beast. Letting out a small growl and laying down onto the building, effectively taking a sniper position, he loaded up another round and fired at another beast, watching as it hit the gargoyle but again, didn't down it. Dammit! Apollyon thought, kicking the expelled cartridge away as he continued the fire at the monsters in an effort to help out the person they were chasing after.

(hahaha, you're fine, he seems pretty cool, so I have no real objections)
Kasida flinched as she heard the loud "bang" before she glared up at the roofs. What could possibly had gone off? She grit her teeth while diving back as one of the monsters swiped at her. She gripped her sword tightly while lunging in to try stabbing at the stomach, she hissed as she began to get clawed up on her arms. Range was going to have to be her best option is she stood a chance. Now if only the sniper could effectively hit the beast! She knew that their skin was touch in the fist place, naturally she was also annoyed at how he was simply wasting the bullets.

Apollyon, in between his shots at the beasts, had noticed that he really wasn't doing much. Everything was telling him he should aim for something else, something that would really damage the creature instead of mindlessly wasting the bullets on their tough-as-nails skin. So he decided to aim for the general face area, because the thinking behind this was if he could get a shot in on their eyes or something that'll affect the face it would help with the situation, but that may be him thinking that was a good idea. So, moving the rifle upwards ever so slightly and following the movements of the monsters with the end of his rifle, he took the first shots, squeezing his finger downwards onto the trigger multiple times to hopefully get that hit he wanted, right on the face. The beast's face was soon covered with it's own blood, Apollyon taking the chance and the thought that it had been temporarily blinded by this action and soon moved onto the next few, using his SKS's feature of semi-auto to help with taking down these guys.

Kasida grinned at the shooter was actually targeting the face, which made her job a little easier in the fact she could slash one of the gargoyles in the face. Then she stabbed it in the soft spot in the stomach, which had it disappear into dust like most dead monsters. Her brown eyes gleamed wickedly as she turned her attention to the next two monsters. Her adrenaline was already spiking. She let out a yell before she tugged on her jacket to have it shift on her into full bronze Roman armor as she lunged straight for one of the monsters in hopes that maybe the sniper would blind this one just like he had done previously.

Apollyon also had a small grin o his face as he kicked the expelled cartridges off of the roof, reaching around into his backpack for a good sized drum magazine and quickly slipping it into the magazine slot. With a fast rack of the slide, he squeezed down on the trigger and the gun went back into semi-automatic, the bullets raining down onto the beasts and Apollyon making sure they'd strike wherever necessary to blind the beast, and aid in the other (who he was sure was another demigod due to the sudden appearance of the armor) in taking down these gargoyles.

John 3:16 (I figure it's good to tag too) Kasida allowed herself to let go and went into a frenzy of hacking and slashing whatever she could get her blade into. Her eyes were wild and crazed as she soon inflicted the final blows on the monsters. After she was done, she let out a gasp of relief and fell onto her knees, not caring that she was covered in monster dust. If anything, she welcomed the fact that she could now rest for at least a moment or two. Of course she had to keep moving. With an aura as powerful as hers, she knew that it was only a matter of time before more monsters tried to find her and try to kill her. With a grunt, she managed to stand and have her armor fade to become a jacket once more. That was when she started to walk as best she could down to some alley to find cover and rest.

(Rivermagic alright)
Apollyon let out a small whoop of victory as he kicked out the emptied drum magazine and threw it back into his bag, feeling the barrel and enjoying the sizzling feeling of the heat coming from the gun. But he had to move, or at least get a good idea on where the other was going, so taking a few moments of his time he watched the other through the crosshairs of his scope he got the general idea that she was heading for cover. Smart. Apollyon packed up his things and threw his SKS over his shoulder, thumb holding the shoulder strap in pace as he headed for the nearest fire escape, scaling down the steps and slowly making his way down to the ground.

John 3:16Kasida continued to limp to an alley before she slumped down next to a large garbage canister that was at the side. She leaned against it while she slid down against the wall to get some rest. She panted slightly as she fiddled in pealing off her jacket and lifted up some of her shirt to examine her stomach. Dammit. One of the gargoyles had scratched her good. She reached for her backpack and set it to her side before she scrambled to find any more bandages. She swore softly as she could only find a couple in an attempt to stop the bleeding. Her eyes narrowed while her adrenaline began to dull away to where she was feeling the steady throb of pain in the wound. If only she had some ambrosia or nectar. It had been lost in a chase from harpies. She was tempted to hit the garbage dump, bit she knew that would only attract some kind of monster.

As Apollyon's feet hit the cracked and disused asphalt of the ground, he quickly raced down the alley between two buildings he had landed in, to which he soon saw the fallen other. Letting out a hiss of his own, he bolted over there, pulling down his rifle and sending quick little glances around to make sure there weren't any more monsters hiding in the shadows, waiting for the healthier sniper to take the 'bait'. But to his slight relief, he didn't see any, and as he neared the other demigod he let out a quick yell of "Hey!" to grab her attention. "You alright?" It was clear she wasn't Apollyon could see blood on her clothing, but he still had to ask anyways.

John 3:16 As Kasida heard someone call over, she instinctively reached to her bag and pulled out a loaded handgun while turning off the safely. She glared at the stranger while keeping her gaze and arm locked onto the person. "Who are you?" she demanded as she gripped her side tightly with her free arm. "As you can see... no." She didn't understand how someone like him could have found her. Then she took note of the face he had weapons. Slowly, she set own her weapon and turned the safety back on. She had a feeling that maybe there was more to this rogue of a survivor. There was no doubt in her mind that he was a demigod. (Gotta go out, I'll be on later)

(Rivermagic sorry for the poof!)
Apollyon had frozen for a second as she had pulled out the raygun, shaking his head and flicking on the safety of his rifle, not wanting to accidentally shoot off his foot. Hey, that could very well happen. "I'm the one who aided you in fending off those monsters." Apollyon said, carefully walking over to her, but stopping a few feet away from the other demigod just to make sure she wouldn't ash out or something. Apollyon doubted it mostly, she had a wound after all, but you could never be too sure in a situation quite like this. But after a moment of him observing the wound on her side, his mind jolted back to something he had picked up earlier, after he had been ambushed by a couple of beasts he could never remember the name of, but they seemed to want to snatch his things. It was a small bag of what Apollyon thinks is ambrosia, and he found it wrenched in the claws of the beasts. Swirling his backpack around his shoulders and sticking his hand within it, he soon pulled it out and carefully tossed it towards her, giving her an odd look before gesturing towards the bag. He hoped it would help, because again this is the only person he's seen in a while. Let alone demigod.

John 3:16 (You're good) Kasida couldn't help but be a little relieved that he had been the one who helped her, even if he had started out doing a bad job at it. She set her handgun away before she tensed up when he threw something at her. She caught it, but winced as she had to lift up her arm. She glanced into the contents before she widened her eyes at the sight of it. Was this...? She tentatively nibbled on a small square before she relaxed at the taste of home-baked brownies her dad liked to make. Yes. Ambrosia. She took another bite before setting it away. Demigods could only consume the food of the gods in small doses. Otherwise they would burst into flames like any mortal who ate it. "Thank you." she managed to say as she could feel the pain slowly beginning to subside. The other various injuries on her still needed time to be healed, but the ambrosia would easily speed up the process.

(Rivermagic eep a lot has been happening lately so i didnt get to reply earlier sorry >.<)
"I hope that helped somewhat." Apollyon said, noticing the bleeding had slowed down since she had nibbled on the piece of ambrosia. He awkwardly shuffled his feet around and tried to make himself of further use, looking around and trying to listen for anything trying to sneak up on the two of them. But there was nothing, that Apollyon could see or hear at least. Sighing and shaking his head, he held out a hand for her to grab. "Here, you need up?" He asked, shaking his hand a little bit in a gesture for her to grab onto it if she needed to.

John 3:16 (It's okay, thanks for letting me know ) Kasida looked up to him warily. She knew that she shouldn't have been offended that he was offering her help to stand. But something about it irked her. She narrowed her eyes a little bit and slowly pushed herself up from the ground while pushing back her hair. "I can get up on my own, thanks." she said neutrally before she leaned down to pick up her things and she glanced him over again. Hmm. She really didn't have much of a reason to even ask him to accompany her. Besides, his aura must have been pretty strong too. No real good would come out of her sticking around here for long. "I'll be on my way." she muttered while slowly trudging along, having to take it slow since she was still healing.

Apollyon just huffed a little bit, eyebrow raised in an almost surprised yet annoyed way, thinking he should've got something more than a scoff and a turned heel. "Geez, who took a leak in your cereal?" Apollyon whispered to himself with a shake of his head, adjusting the things on his back before walking off himself.
(skip i guess?)

John 3:16 (Sure) Kasida let out a sigh as she walked into some abandoned hotel, and looked around nervously before she figured she could take a break and actually rest in the lobby. She let out a sigh before she curled up on one of the couches for a moment or two. Since eating the ambrosia, she felt better than she had in weeks. She closed her eyes while pushing back her hair. Maybe for once she could actually braid it back. Small hums escaped her as she was trying to do the pattern slowly and carefully. When growls could be heard on the outside, she tensed up on instinct and narrowed her brown eyes. She looked through the main doors and saw that there were werewolves prowling about. Damn, it was dusk already? She didn't think that she had any wilver weapons on her, or at the very least silver bullets.

Apollyon had been wandering about for a while, clutching his SKS tightly in his hands as his ears were pricked for any noise that signaled something was about nearby. For a bit he had been hearing growls that honestly he had thought was his stomach at first (he was getting quite hungry), but then he realized it wasn't and it was then that the nervousness had set in. His amber eyes were looking around for any sign of anything that could very well post a threat to his safety, magazine held tightly in his palm, hand ready to slip it into the magazine slot and thumb poised over the safety, waiting for the moment to flick it down and fire. But that moment hadn't come, yet at least, but Apollyon was still treading lightly and making sure he was cautious and careful about where he went, just to promise that he wasn't going to get accidentally killed. Yeah, that wouldn't be any good.
Emerging out of a back alleyway, Apollyon sighed in relief when he didn't see any monsters waiting for him at the end of it. Stepping out further, he noticed that the growling just hadn't been that weird auditory hallucination that he was beginning to think it was, but actual noises he was really hearing. That made his hairs stand on end as his SKS was mounted on his shoulder, the click of the magazine being loaded upwards into the gun resonating through the empty alley and beyond as he listened for where this was coming from. His head turned towards his left, where an old, derelict hotel stood in the midst of it's own crumbling foundations. Inching towards it, and trying as best as humanly possibly to keep as quiet as he could, his eyes down the sights of his rifle, he tried to figure out what this was he was going to no doubt be dealing with. It was growling and shuffling around, and it sounded like a fair few of them, and almost dog-like - wait. Oh no. Were these - werewolves?
Apollyon bit back a gasp, knowing he did not have any of the tools to deal with these creatures. If he made a wrong move, he could very well be dead right then and there, because he didn't have any silver on him. His bullets were made of copper and lead, which he didn't know would do anything to the beasts. Probably not, but hell, it wasn't like he was going to try. Right, just try and get a good look at how many there are, okay? He thought to himself, inching forwards, SKS still at the ready, and he tried his best to not be seen by them as he inched ever so closer, noticing that they hadn't noticed him yet. Good. He didn't want to die today, thank you.
(lil weird, just realized that she saw them outside the hotel and not in it ^^")
