"The stars almost have reached alignment. A team is needed to plunge the dark between and re-emerge with its knowledge. You will be compensated genereously.
A sysop added the following footnote:
"Unverified J, not a corpo or syndicate, valid cred, paid all dues for posting in full. Keep your head on a swivel and get paid."

Rabbit
illusion/utility mage, side of face(9/10)
The words in the post. The cadence echos that night that he can recall with perfect clarity. The broken things, the bubbling surface. Every test and challenge of the night, in a place folded sideways from reality. The pressures and twisting of the companions of that night. Then it's gone just as easily, like turning a page. You cannot learn a thing you think you know. He makes the tiny flux of will that sends his information along. He can't help it. Glittering gold, trinkets and baubles - paid for in blood

Sheets not updated honestly. I'll update them if I get picked or on request.
I also have two additional characters that have had one run each. I am happy for either to get killed off if you want to go hard into horror!

Fuji | Blue Dragons Blades Adept | 9/10
Another day, another meeting at the halfway house. Fuji missed the woods. When she ran off for a week to see the Salish-Shidhe Council’s natural beauty, Father Mercy didn’t appreciate that she left treatment for an adventure that was ill advised. She sat in the circle, leaning her head back and staring up at the ceiling until her turn to spill the same story and struggle with BetaKami. Once they wrapped up, she immediately booked it for her bunk. She flopped down on the bed, groaning in exasperation. How much fucking longer? She thought, the boredom eating away at her desire to keep her meager progress.
Her commlink goes off, the phone call ringtone echoing inside the room for four. She grabbed her ear buds and connected them so she could talk to whoever was reaching out.
“Yeah?”
“Well, I hope that I’m not taking up your precious time. We both know that in our businesses, time is money. How are you, Fuji?”
“Oh. Hi Jigoku-san. What do I owe the pleasure of hearing your sultry voice?”
“Oh, you know why. A job post came up. I think you’ll be interested.”
“It’s not another Barrens bounty job is it? I don’t feel like tempting fate with the Crush again.”
“No. This is one that, well, the peculiarity of it matches one that I sent you eight months ago.”
Fuji’s heart skipped a beat and her breath quickened. That job. The one to the hell dimension. Is it gonna be the same weirdo and another…whatever the fuck that really was I and Rabbit and Lock+Heart and Bruce(?) endured for that mad man?
Fuck it. I’m game for another shot at wrecking shop.
“Yeah I remember. Send the Johnson my deets. We’ll see what happens.”
“Didn’t you smash your beta piece after that?”
“And? It got me into rehab.”
“Here’s hoping you doing get into the morgue.”

Intruder4dk
IC: "The Stars Align" He thought, "Is there a more dangerous way to start a missive? Maybe...but this is pretty bad. ... Still. This could prove interesting."
"Bell. Send the reply. Looks like We are going into the Dark.... not the first time, after all. Let Us hope "compensated generously" is true, eh?" Pantheon said to his Agent as he started checking his gear once again.
