OoC :: Redoing the forms ~
Nadia Williams : 19 years old, 5'6, and 119 lbs. Nadia has semi-tanned caucasian skin. Her hair is a golden brown, generally let loose across her shoulders, which is around the length it is- just barely below her shoulders. Occasionally, she has a hairpiece in her hair. Nadia's eyes are a bright blue. She is rather thin, however that doesn't take away anything about her. Rather, she is still very intelligent and often manipulates others to her will, though of course is cautious about that. What makes her show an obviously confident side is her power, which certainly helps with the manipulation of others. Her power is the ability to make people do what she wants them to do, a form of silvertongue or charmspeak. | CreamCrow |
Nathaniel 'Nathan' Williams : 19 years old, 5'11, 151 lbs. Nathan has darker skin than his sister, leaning on an almost pale gold skin tone, looks a little asian unlike his twin sister- but just a bit. His eyes are dark green, and Nathan's hair is raven black. He is partially muscular, though still remaining lithe. His hair is generally parted to the right side of his face, and his hair reaches his ears. His hair is honestly a little messy. Unlike his social twin sister, Nathan is more of an introvert. He dislikes crowds, strangers, people that are suspicious. He is more visibly cautious than his sister, however if he gets comfortable he will make smart remarks to certain things some may say. He is also quite resourceful as his stranger power is less amazing than his sister's. It involves sound, but it is sound in the mind. He has the ability to manipulate psychic sound - make people hear voices in their head, communicate this way, allowing him to pretty much fill their head with any sound he wishes without saying a word, possibly causing them to feel a certain emotion at times. | CreamCrow |
Shiva Wolff : 17 years old, 5'1, 107 lbs. Shiva is a very pale-skinned girl, with really light freckles upon her nose and cheeks. Her hair is curly, it's strawberry blonde and often in a ponytail because when it is let loose, it covers her shoulders and stretches down her back pretty far. Two bangs are generally out loose no matter what, the one on the right side being shorter than the one on the left due to a mistake while cutting her hair, but she kept it like that. Shiva is unafraid to speak her mind and will always state it how she sees it. She holds grudges for a long time and you don't want to be the person she has a grudge on, Shiva is emotional and were her emotions on her sleeve. Shiva has an ability that fits well with her fiery personality, the ability to control and create fire. She is simply relieved that fire is unable to harm her. She has a less easy time controlling it as her emotions can get the better of her when using it. | CreamCrow |

Bryn looked up as the girl grabbed her. She arched an eyebrow. "Sorry? But I know what I'm doing and I know the dangers. You also don't know what I'm doing either." She said flatly, looking up at the girl with a short frown. She then glanced down at her hand and brushed it off her arm, "Don't touch, I have a large space bubble." She said stepped away from the girl and plucking the finger off the ground. There was a shred of soul attached which was odd as normally the soul was throughout every part of the body.
Bryn shrugged a little bit and then closed her eyes, mumbling a short summoning phrase under her breath. She felt a small tug and her vision blurred like it always did. Her vision slowly cleared and she frowned, looking around. No spirit. She glanced down at the finger and then back at the area around her. Bryn pursed her lips and sat back on her heels, this was weird. She glanced at the others, "Do you guys see anything. Like a really pale....person?" She said lazily, and by her tone you'd think this was a normal conversation she had every day with people.

Akili's blue eyes narrowed, "What did you say?" she asked, "some sort of phrase under your breath, what was it?"

Bryn turned and looked at the girl, her expression empty. Why did everyone want to talk to her all the sudden? She simply stared silently at the girl for another minute or two before turning away without answering. She set the finger down a bit disgusted at the 'presents' it left on her palm. Bryn wiped her hand through the grass and looked around. The....limb might not have contained enough soul for summoning. And so she'd have to find another one. Her breen eyes swept the scene for another limb. There was an arm a yard away but it was out in the open and she didn't necessarily want to pick it up and drag it back behind a house. Byrn sighed and spotted what looked like a rib bone. Ribs were closer to the center of the body.Thus closer to the soul.
Bryn looked around, the rib was decently hidden behind the porch of the next house. She'd have to ly on the ground, but it would work. She glanced behind her at the others, if they wanted to come they'd have to keep up. And pay attention, she wasn't dragging anyone anywhere. Or keeping them out of problem. Bryn leaned forward, braced and sprinted toward the porch, shifting and sliding into the grass, safely out of sight. She looked around and snatched the bone from the grass.
(I'm on mobile so I won't be able to add your new forms Cream, but they look great!)

Akili sprinted after her, curiosity prodding her into action despite how concerned she was about the whole thing. besides, I'd rather not have another person be mutilated by the creature who did this whole thing. She watched as Bryn snatched the bone and keep her slight repulsion to herself, after all, she had seen much, much worse.

OoC :: Got it!
IC :: Nadia had shaken her head at the first question, whether there was a pale person there that was. The newest member to the small group was a little annoying, trying to stop Bryn from what she was doing. However, no matter that, she continued to follow, not exactly bothering to hide herself as well. Nadia didn't exactly need to, though of course her brother followed the other's examples of staying better hidden.
"You're trying to summon spirits, right?" Nathan murmured to Bryn specifically, though the rest of the group could hear. His green eyes were narrowed onto the bone, before looking up to the girl holding it. Considering what she had previously asked and what it looked like she was doing, and most of the things she said, it just came together easier.

Bryn glanced up as everyone else seemed to parade after her. She frowned as Nadia didn't bother to hide herself. While maybe that girl was confident she could get out of an arrest, Bryn had been in trouble with the police before and another run-in would probably result in jail, which she was not interested in. Bryn adjusted her grip on the bone and set it on her palm. More soul then the finger, that was positive, but it wasn't as much as an average rib bon should have. She glanced down at it to make sure it was actually a rib bone. It certainly looked like one. She sighed and wiped off some of the gore in the grass before returning it to her hand.Looking up, Bryn was a bit shocked to find herself being addressed by the boy. The one who seemed to be the quiet person. Not only did this shock her, but it was also surprising that he caught on so quickly. Then again, if you didn't think we was crazy or psychotic, it really wasn't that hard to figure out. Most people just went with the crazy option though.
Apparently Nathan was different then the normal people ,in fact, everyone following her seemed to be different. For one, no one seemed to notice her death and dangerous aura like others did. And they were actually talking to her, even when she wasn't responding. Bryn looked up and met Nathan's gaze, giving a small nod, there was no point in lying. if he'd guessed what she was going already and hadn't run away screaming, then telling the truth wouldn't hurt much anyways. "I'm trying, something's weird about it." She said in a sort of mono-tone that she always spoke with.

OoC :: words
IC :: "Ah," was all he replied to it by. Nathan had wished he had figured it out a little quicker, but at least he knew. Though there was still no reason to tell Bryn about the twin's odd abilities considering Nathan particularly preferred to keep it on the down low. Considering it was easier for him to do so anyways, Nadia used it when she needed, though her precautions were rather useful- telling a person to forget something completely worked wit her. Which is likely why she was so bold about what she did.
"That's my brother," Nadia said with a laugh. Then in a slightly more serious tone she continued, "Of course you'd be the one to blatantly put it out there anyway. And since he refuses to say anything more about this matter, I suppose I'll have to. Why are you currently unable to summon them? Or at least, what's so weird about summoning them this time around, Bryn?"

Akili watched their conversation and her nose wrinkled slightly as her head gave a particularly sharp sting of pain.
Eira growled and got closer to Clive, her ears flattened threateningly against her skull, teeth bared.
Ian kept a careful eye on Eira, moving slowly and cautiously like all the other officers were doing.
(I'm running out of ideas! XD)

Bryn glanced at Nadia, "If I knew what was wrong then I'd be able to fix it." Though her remark might sound snappish she meant it in a simple informational manner. Bryn sighed. "Okay listen. Necromancy is a very complicated process so I'll give you a short crash course. Each part of the body holds a least a little bit of the soul, the closer the body part is, the stronger the soul part inside will be. I use the part of the soul to summon the spirit."
Bryn took a deep breath, "On a side note, unlike what most tho k the soul actually stays with the body and the spirit leaves. They are different. Now that nasty finger didn't have much soul so the summoning didn't work. Now a ribcage bone is close to the center. My concern is, there isn't as much soul in it as there should be." She explained simply and then looked at them to see if they were following.

Clive looked at the wolf and flexed his crowbar. "You want some?" He asked in suprise, arching an eyebrow.

OoC :: words
IC :: Nadia listened to her entire small speech about necromancy. The soul part her, she wasn't aware that the soul stuck with the body- it meant many of these poor souls had been violently ripped apart. Of course the fact that there wasn't as much soul as there should be was troubling. There wasn't much she could comment on that other than a lame two words.
"Do you know if it's painful for a soul to be basically split like this into many body parts? Or does the soul simply not feel it? I apologize if the questions are silly, just I haven't met someone who can do that yet," Nadia decided on saying. She ignored a sharp pain in her head, just glaring at her brother instead. He only shrugged with a warning glance that she was probably prodding too much.

Bryn felt like a teacher and it was weird. She certainly wasn't used to people asking her questions or listening to her. Bryn cast a short glance around, since they seemed to have time for it, she shifted on her side to explain. "I haven't experienced any of the after effects of death, but from the spirits I talk to, the soul goes through no pain. In actuality, the spirit goes through all of the pain and suffering after the death. It has to leave the body, were it has grow and attached itself for years. The older the person the more painful the separation is. The spirit is forced to rip itself away from the heart, mind and body and when it emerges from the body, it's in a more spiritual world. Spirits that refuse to leave the body are left to pain and torture unimaginable and when they finally leave they normally turn into angry spirits."
Bryn paused, realizing she'd gotten sidetracked. "Imagine a patch of dirt as the body and a jug of water as the soul. You pour the water on one single spot at the center of the dirt. This is whete most of the water will stay. However, naturally, the water will also travel outwards, reaching dirt that's farther away from the center. That dirt doesn't contain as much water, but it's still got some. Now the only difference between this and the actual soul. Is the soul is on a more spiritual level, so even if the body is torn apart, it continues to flow through each and every part. It feels no pain." Bryn finished and looked at Nadia to see if the girl had anymore questions.
(Tiger you could have Eira see them for something and then I could have Clive help them so we can start grouping all the characters together. And we can find a way to get Shiva in there to for Cream)

(I have an idea, give me a sec! )
( Ari Graton- Ari is a light brown haired six-foot tall eighteen-year-old with bright hazel blue eyes and a scar that nicks his left cheek. He is Eira's best friend and tends to be a little less impulsive than the other half of their duo. He is protective of his friends, doesn't mind fighting, and usually agrees with Eira. Like Eira he is a shifter, his form is a reddish brown Eurasian Wolf with a tan underbelly and a scar crossing his left flank) ______________________________________________________________________
Eira's blue eyes flashed as she caught sight of Nadia's golden brown hair, Seriously? Come on! Changing her attention from Clive, she shot off toward the four sneaking around and barked, getting their attention.
A blur of brown knocked her off course and the two wolves wrestled while some of the normal humans screamed and ran away from the two canines. (they're near the other characters)

IC :: Nadia nodded along taking in the information for a future event. The human was such an odd and complicated thing. She didnt like it. She would have liked to respond, though another sharp pang in her head told her to simply be quiet. It was a painful burst followed by words, 'Stop asking questions. We should leave,' That was seriously annoying and she responded to her brother with a large glare of blue. He looked at her carefully and Nadia said, "Well, I hope you don't mind but Im curious. And with that, I'm going to stay here to see how it works."
And then the exasperated groan from her brother. After that though, she was surprised by the bark of an animal, and then turning to see the commotion was two wolves tussling with each other on the ground. Certainly it was something strange to just see when people were still barely around and the cops nearby. With a sharp, "Stop," she commanded to two tussling animals to stop their small fight in annoyance.

Eira kicked the other wolf off and snarled at Nadia, icy blue eyes flashing with 'anger' and annoyance. "Really Ari?" She barked at the other wolf in annoyance, "I wasn't going to kill them you know." "I know," Ari barked back, both of the barks were snarling and fierce, giving the appearance of the two wolves arguing that calmly talking to each other. "But they're doing something." He pointed out. Eira growled in responseand shook the dust from her white fur.

(I'll add Ari soon, but I've been on mobile for awhile cuz my laptop just stinks.)
Bryn frowned a bit at her answer. "You can't see anything." She said simply. The Necromancer or Summoner is the only one who can see or contact the spirit." Bryn finished and right afterwards the barking started. Bryn cursed under her breath as she saw police officers looking, shouting, and pointing at the wolves. They were coming over. Bryn turned and looked over her shoulder, spinning around, she started crawling toward a set of bushes where she could find out of sight. "Dumb dogs" She muttered in irritation.
Clive was surprised that the wolf turned away and bolted for a house. Although when it started tussling with another, it created the perfect distraction for him. He slipped under the tape and turned invisible, jogging over toward the house with the police officers.

Eira and Ari raced off, diverting the police's attention from the other people as they playfully circled around the officers and the other humans, causing chaos.

OoC :: words
IC :: It was a slight shame, but Nadia care. Irritating her brother was fun, though she believed Bryn's comment earlier about seeing a pale person- she likely meant the soul, had been pointless because if she had summoned one then they would have been unable to see either way. But now there was a new set of problems added onto this. With a slightly annoyed groan she muttered to herself. "Those creatures are so unnecessary. All they've done is cause a little more chaos now, it would have been much easier to just..." Speak with the cops and convince them they should be there, but now two wolves were tussling with ine another and it brought up so much more trouble. Though there was hardly any civilians, it would make it a little more difficult to convince them nothing was wrong.

(I'm going to drop out for a while, until you guys are farther along anyway, since I don't know what to do)
Eira and Ari shot off, disappearing into an alleyway.
Akili didn't really seem to care about the two wolves, she was more curious about what Bryn was trying to do. Akili ducked behind a car, squatting down and hiding out of sight.

(Sorry for the long poof Cream! Okay Tiger Come back soon!!) Bryn shifted onto her rear and quickly muttered the summoning spell. The pull was harder and she felt the presence of a spirit. Then something bolted, her mind was bombarded with needle-like stabs and pains. Bryn gasped, her eyes jerking open, she fell back, gripping her head as it pounded. She scrambled and grabbed the bone, tossing it away from her, "What the heck?" She muttered, massaging her forehead. Bryn glanced up seeing the wolves bolt. They needed to leave, fast. Well she did anyway. Bryn jumped to her feet and snatched up her fallen headphones. She bolted toward the other side of the house, ducking out of view and peeking around the corner to watch for the police.
