TF2: Offline Practice

“Faster, rookie!” the Soldier boomed over the intercom as I raced through the mineshaft. Man, I hated Dustbowl. As I ran, I heard the rumble of rockets, bombs, and gunfire outside. I was sweating, more due to the situation than fatigue; I needed to find a RED buddy to heal. This deep in enemy territory, I wouldn’t last too long in a direct fight, and we didn’t have momentum on our side. I took out the syringe gun, just in case. What was it the Medic said about using this thing? Lead ze targets vhen you shoot. Make full use of suppressing fire. Make sure it is loaded beforehand. I checked it. Yep, forty needles, ready to kill…I hoped. Eve...

Verne Wretner

Verne comes from a small farming plantation town in Mwangi. He was born to a family of wheat barons in this town, a family that bore a disease known to them as "Fire-rot". This illness is a rash that affects the chest, disfiguring the skin into a red, scaly patch and slowly hardening the organs beneath it. The only known treatment for Fire-rot is a medicine based around wheat; this treatment staves off the effects for a time, but isn't a permanent fix. Verne's motivation for leaving his native soil and traveling the seas is to find a permanent cure and rid his bloodline of this cruel genetic error.He first became a gunslinger after he'd he...

Happy Circus

The bright colors and upbeat atmosphere perk up each man, woman, and child as they pass through the tent flap and forget their worries. The air buzzes with excitement, fueled by the murmur of the crowd and the proud music played by the band. When the tune rises to a crescendo, all of the lights dim except one: a spotlight focusing the crowd's attention on the ringmaster. He welcomes them to the show and is treated to cheers from all corners of the crowd, making his bright smile even wider. As he introduces the performers, a second, brighter spotlight illuminates each as they work their routines. The tightrope walkers and trapeze artists sh...

Escape, pt 2.

Staring out at the water, Mary raised her cigarette and inhaled. She began thinking, remembering everything and everyone. Frank, Julie, what have you done this time? She knew there'd been tension between her friends and their son, but he'd never actually run away before. She inhaled again, this time seeing them as they used to be. Before the unplanned pregnancy that had forced their resignations. Before the rest of the team had followed suit, dropping off the face of the earth to live what was left of their lives. She herself had found work as a law clerk, able to create a new past that raised no alarms during her background check. It ha...

Escape

He quietly slipped the backpack on. Its familiar weight was reassuring, though a reminder of the past he was leaving. He ran through a mental checklist: laptop, phone, wallet, books, food, water, pistol. This last item hung from his hip; he brushed his hand against its metal frame. He opened the window, feeling the cool morning air breeze past him. It was almost light, and he could see the sun peeking through the forest on the horizon; the same forest he'd stared at for 19 years from this same window. He flipped up the hood on his sweatshirt, and began to climb down the outside of the house to the ground. It was only a two-story drop, but ...

Jungle Vignette

The jungle crawled with energy and life. This hotbed of creation gleamed, a variety of colors interspersed over the lush green of the forest. Unseen predators stalked barely-visible prey, creatures all through the expanse of trees, rivers, and sky intent on either surviving or thriving. The insects were engaged in a hidden war based on misdirection and trickery, many disguising themselves to appear as others in hopes of staving off would-be adversaries. The more dominant creatures chattered and howled, their calls a beacon for others of their ilk.
