ANONYMOUS. HEARTLESS. MINDLESS.[/style][STYLE=width: 310px; font-family: georgia; font-size: 30px; color: 000000; text-transform: lowercase;]Marlowe Wiedmer[/style][STYLE=width: 308px; font-family: helvetica; font-size: 12px; text-align: justify; padding-top:5px;]In recent past, his daytime persona has become an alter ego. Marlowe, the student, is an always punctual, lighthearted leader-type. Most of his free time is filled with intramural sports, environmental clubs, and reading arcane books in the library. He has a solid collection of likeminded friends who all have big dreams but potentially waste them with banger-esque dorm parties. Honestly, if you want to be friends with him, you introduce yourself. Marlowe isn’t one to get too emotionally invested in other people’s lives but he truly cares for people. The uniqueness of every NYC person makes that a little easier. Everyone’s little quirk is something to learn from for him. Remember, he’s not your big brother, your boyfriend, or your best bro. You’d be very mistaken. He just feels as if he should bring everyone else up with him, the proper way. No coddling, no letting you cheat off of him, etc. He’s that guy.
If your one of the more interesting denizens of New York, all I can say is stay alert. He’s a mobster under the seemingly malicious mage, Moloch. He does this to maintain his daytime life, so it’s pretty much cut-and-dry for him. One day, you guys can be swapping war stories like old buds. The next day, if Moloch asks for it, he’ll be your exorcist, Van Helsing, Kratos, etc. Although he doesn’t like being Moloch’s buttmonkey, his loyalty is in his paid tuition and lifestyle. If you can match the price, you’ve got his powers. It may seem a little shallow to other wakers, deities, and whoever else. Marlowe simply wants to be comfortable, and he can’t be supernaturally ambitious when he’s got tests, tuition, and other obligations to maintain. Anyway, as of right now, he is Moloch’s golden child and will shoot you dead if you cross big daddy.
This said, he’s not just the douchebag of magical NYC. He’s steadily trying to develop himself in the magical world. He wants to be both in-the-know and the guy you simply don’t mess with. It’s working out somewhat.
Oh, and finally, sex. Romance is so 20th century. He honestly doesn’t believe that but treats women like most of his other obligations in life. He grooms well, picks out special places, and treats romance like a trade. He doesn’t really discriminate. If you truly understand who, what, and where he is, he’s probably going to be fond of you. Whatever you do with that is your move. [/style][/style][STYLE=font-family: helvetica; font-size: 9px; text-align:center;]made by TERMINALLYCAIT AT GS.[/style]

hihihihihi
SO LET'S PLOT
umum i can't think of anything for sophia atm unless you'd like to suggest. the girl keeps to herself for the most part. unless kol wants something from him and sends an agent, but we'd have to ask octane, probs.
janus could be a little more promising. he likes to be in the know with all the underground groups and whatnot in nyc. he just wants to be in the loop about their going ons, and he doesn't really interfere unless some really heavy shit goes down.

JANUS: Moloch is secretly a deity; that's my canon for the mafia right now. Moloch is an Ammonite God who has mad hate for Greco-Roman deities for more or less imposing their civilizations all over Moloch's stomping grounds.
Hearing that Janus is once again becoming a factor in magical NYC, Moloch could send Marlowe to snoop on him. While on that mission, Marlowe is saved by Janus in some manner. When he eventually goes all astral vision on the deity, he becomes conflicted on how to react. That's kind of broad atm, but it could be stretched over a couple of threads. Like, for now, it could follow your idea of Marlowe being Janus's ear in the mob.
SOPHIA: Word. This one's a little hard to manage. They could be enemies, although I'm giving Marlowe way too many haters. It's probs hard to identify V's enemies atm (other than a possible tolerate-hate with ordo dracul). However, Moloch can technically have whatever enemies I feel like. The V Coven is new powerhouse, which means that they're potentially destructible (more so than ordo anyway). Not saying that Moloch will all out war them. But maybe he wants to piss off some people by executing Sophia. Does Sophia have anyone that wants to kill her? Maybe the mafia was hired.
Oh and before all that happens, feeding thread should happen. I think it'd be interesting to have Marlowe actually get blood sucked'd. And it'd give them some awkward to hash over when they eventually fight or whatev.

why don't you love me why haven't we threaded
VIVIENNE: sophia's best fran fo' lyfe yo, if you wanna do something with that. weretiger, 21ish, doesn't go to college lol, is a bounty hunter/assassin?
ZAHIR: waker, 27, idiot with blue hair who thinks he is a superhero who must kill all vamps and bind all demons, looking for his lost mom.
DAMARIS: 19, goes to nyu, likes math a lot, waker magi specializing in warding, can do a keg stand.
NATHANIEL: 8004 (the 4 is necessary ok), really bored old guy vampire, originally from mesopotamia and hung out in that general area from about the 5900s BC until the first roman conquest in 115 AD, so he and moloch might idk??
Post by sophia rosenberg on Dec 26, 2012 0:57:52 GMT -5
ok, so now that we've established that moloch isn't a protozoan god...
janus: lol he doesn't usually give enough fucks to save a civilian, but mebbe we could throw in an npc were whom janus knows is bad news. accidental!savior is a-go?
and then janus mooches a beer off of him or something idk. he'd probs try to pick marlowe apart out of his usual boredom. then he can find out that marlowe is a mob boy?
sophia: ummmm lol i think anyone who was particularly close to her maker would want her dead. she's been picking most of them off in her thirty years of being a fugitive, though. sophia's done plenty of assasination work for v lately, but those are usually kol's enemies.
lolololol ok so random victim at midnight, or do you have something specific in mind? sophia likes to target the younger/homeless ones, though, since she doesn't have mind-wipe powers. marlowe would have to look like a pretty low-risk case. maybe after he comes out of a drunken college party? he doesn't look like that type, though

More or less, they both kill/capture people for money, so they have something in common. I could see them going after the same target and tripping over each other or some vaudevillian bullshit. I don't see them being on enemy terms, until (if Redox is cool with this) Marlowe is asked to execute Sophia. Then he has a doublemint twins to deal with.
ZAHIR: Marlowe would probably hate Zahir. The dude's just too paladin. If they ever run in to each other, it'll probably start a messy catfight. I'm not too sure about Zahir's mother plot thing, so I'll look into that but we can plot them waay later, I guess.
DAMARIS: sexytime. y/y. Run in at a party. They both spot a ghost and act on that shit. I like scene-related plots, it seems. This plotting thing is weird. Hi, Tsun.
NATHANIEL: Gimme some time to think and this could work and be awesome. Maybe Moloch and him do each other a solid from time to time, and Marlowe and Nate hit it off. idk idk idk
JANUS: LOL. J-ANUS. I JUST REALIZED THAT. So, that's definitely how Marlowe and Anus could meet and chill out. However, are you game with the Moloch plot? These will be fun threads ;DD
SOPHIA: Well, an anonymous hit always works. One of those discreet money exchange scenarios. Mafia gets paid to take out princess doom and gloom. Since she's the assassination arm of V, if anyone's trying to chip away at the coven, she'd be a best bet to hit first. Snip off a tiger's claws (probably not true considering Kol is probably alpha vampire supreme).
No, I like this. Drunken college party. Not totally smashed but sliz'd enough. Marlowe drops off a friend at an apartment nearby his dorm. And he tries to walk it through the city really quick. But he gets snatched by a Sophia. C:[/style][/style][STYLE=font-family: helvetica; font-size: 9px; text-align:center;]made by TERMINALLYCAIT AT GS.[/style]

BRO WHAT DID I TELL U ABOUT PLOT PAGES. THEY ARE DA SHITZ.
janus: BRO i told u about the j-anus thing like forever ago!! or wuz it tsun.
o-oh god pls don't call him 'anus' icly. i'll limit yr chars' knowledge to purely "mr. vasilou" if you do 8( yyyyyyyyyy i am down for the moloch plot. tell me if you do plan on giving moloch to someone tho. i'd like to plot around that. who starts?
sophia: "princess doom and gloom" omg ozy ilu man i wish i thought of that sooner bc that would have totes been sophia's flavor text on the roster. or.../makes sig
yes i am down for the assassination plot \o/ probs not a good idea to try anything at her residence since she lives next to a weretiger and will be roommates with justice of v once he is accepted lol BUT we should totes plot this out after the first meeting thing
i think the drunken thread sounds like something that you should start tho, from how you're describing it. if he looks fairly drunk, sophia will probably figure that he can wake up the next morning and suspect "one too many pints of vodka" combined with "horny chick with a neck fetish". except sophia's not rly a drinker so she's not the best gauge of intoxication, oops.

it seems like damaris and marlowe will run into each other during her thread w/ xi, nathaniel and zahir need time to simmer, so vivienne is the only one left? i love yr idea of slapstick going after the same person antics, i don't mind starting it unless yr like--super opposed?
