| Iris Targaryen had exceptional hearing, un-canny eyesight, and quick movements and her other side enhances those traits by ten when activated. Seeing through the pitch black pathway on the way to the Serentega Subway Station was not a difficult task for her, but even with the inhuman eyesight, she still couldn’t see five feet ahead of her. The Serentega Station is a rarely used route through Kibatsuna and to the Capitol, but it was very popular post-apocalyptic. Surprisingly, even after the bombing, the trains are still in good enough shape to work semi-properly, unlike the many above ground transportation routes around the city. People would assume that the subway would be used a lot more now, considering the lack of cars and buses and such, but they are only half correct. Disgusting mold, blood thirsty animals and bugs, and pools of poisonous nuclear extract cover the walls, hide in the corners, and lay in bundles all over the station. That wasn’t even the bad part. Thieves and killers lurk in the shadows, awaiting defenseless victims to saunter into the station and they rob them of everything they own and skin/burn/chop up/slice/stab/rip off their limbs one by one, sometimes throwing them into the tracks right as a train ‘happened’ to be going by. She was hoping the train would take her to the middle of the Sabaku Desert, the Hide-Away Camp, by at least midnight tonight, around 3 hours away. She had around just enough time to steal some ammunition and supplies for the survivors (a restock of equipment, for they had been running low recently) and take the bus for an hour and a half out there and ditch before the train arrived in the Capitol, a place Iris should stay far from. Iris was traveling by herself, for her sister was back at camp, leading the watch team while she took a visit into Kibatsuna. She had took refuge in the bar a few minutes earlier, strictly business, and had a couple drinks (thanks to the buff guy bartending, who with one wink had given the seemingly fifteen year old girl two glasses of Jack Daniels, on the house, and had left the bottle right in front of her eyes, which she scooped up when he turned to make another drink for a different costumer). She hardly ever had the time or money to taste alcohol anymore. It was considered a delicacy to find an untouched bottle nowadays. She now had a full handle, hopefully all to herself. A fifteen year old alcoholic, another thing to add to the list of problems she has. She carried a huge satchel, the handle, a cloth, medicine she found to hopefully help some of the injured, a large knife (she had also stolen this from the bar), a few canned foods, and bottle caps (the unofficial currency). There was still ¾’s of the bag yet to be filled, which she had saved for the supplies and ammo. There was a long staircase leading to the actual underground subway station. There were no lights leading to the main room so everything was black and it reeked of diseases. Iris used her sense of hearing to lead her to the halls connecting to the main room. Her boots squeaked on the nuclear extract soaked floor and she felt dirty just walking through this place. The hallway just led her to more hallways, and she wondered when she would actually get there, or if she made a wrong turn. She had picked up a rusty pipe at the entrance of the building so every time a mutated creature would pop out at her, she gave it a whack in the face. It was weird; she seemed to always have a metal pipe for a weapon. The halls got lighter and lighter (she could now barely see her own body), so she assumed she was near the main building. She hated the quiet so she hummed a little tune under her breath, spirits high and mighty at the fact that she was finally going home. She was fucking starving. She had a canned cake and two lollipops about… half an hour ago. She whimpered and grabbed her stomach when it rumbled, maybe to her imagination. It wasn’t long before she can across actual people. Maybe they had food.

[PLEASE READ] The Helpful Box | Sat Nov 15, 2014 4:01 pm by Delta | Hey guys, Delta here.
Due to a recent bump in re-activity, spirits have been rather high. At the same time, however, so have the skeptics of some- Hell, maybe all of us. I'm not gonna lie and say that building this place back up is gonna be easy, but that doesn't mean it's gotta be hard, y'know?
We all had fun, be it posting some badass fight scenes, or dickin' around in the Chatbox or any number of the miscellaneous threads.
And I'd like for it to be that way again, because I missed all of ya.
So, this leads to... The Helpful Box.
In this thread, I'd like for everyone- especially those who are skeptical on the progress we're gonna be making- to input how they feel we can go about …

Bam, bitches. | Sun Sep 29, 2013 5:19 pm by Daenerys | I think Iris and I have a telepathic connection together. She gets back on the forum, and seven days later I have the urge to check out the forum. That can't be a coincidence. There's some syfy shit going on there.
Just as soon as I thought every piece of my life had been put into place, BAM someone came along and set all the pieces on fire. And then put it out. And set fire on it again.
Just kidding, nothing dramatic has happened in my life at all. Anyways, I apologize profusely for my absence. School has been all-consuming and I feel like a zombie. I feel for Iris' pain; some of my friends who are in cheer are exhausted from all of the stuff they do. I have been so busy I haven't …

Logo/Color for the Warui and Survivors Update | Tue Jul 16, 2013 7:01 pm by Iris | Well,it wasn't my idea, not sure who's it was, but I want to inform everyone that it's SETTLED.
Thanks to Daenerys, she has put together an appropriate logo for both the Warui and Survivors.
The logos are shown on every page, in the right corner, as if it wasn't already obvious.
The Warui's logo is a phoenix, and I was thinking that on the soldiers, it could be in a badge type form, like that of police badges that they hold up in shows or movies, but instead of holding it up, it'd be on a sleeve of the Warui soldiers uniforms and such.
Same for the Survivors, but instead of on uniforms, it'd be on flags and tents and crates and such. The logo is an eye with a nuclear symbol in the center. …

Currency Issue Settled | Sat Jun 15, 2013 3:38 am by Daenerys | ****UPDATE On the Currency Issue****
There was a bit of debate on what "currency" our forum shall have... Some argued for a set currency, while other argued for trading. Therefore, we have reached a compromise: a mixture of both. A member said---"Come to think of it, I don't know why any of us think the world will run off of one methods of buying/selling/obtaining." Which is completely true. The whole world is in ruins, and shit is falling apart. Therefore, bottlecaps are the "unofficial currency", while many people use trading because it is more convenient for them.
-Daenerys Targaryen OUT, bitches.
