Ok, I started this very same thread down at the Neopets RP chat boards, but it didn't catch on. It seems people would rather RP a fake Pool Party then something with real back bone to it. So I thought I could rekindle it here. There is a story line; it's not written in stone, but it's there, so all of the following are needed:
Good/bad warriors/ess Good/bad scorers/ess Monsters Spirits And anything your imagination can come up with.
You're more then welcome to RP as your neopet or as your own non-neopets character. Remember, this is an action AND horror RP so your character can be killed in a mean nasty way... Not too nasty though... wouldn't want people to get sick.
*A skunk female Usul stands before a bon fire at the edge of a swamp hidden within the Haunted Woods. The bleached skulls of Crokabek littered the ground around the skunk Usul as she raised her hands to the night sky* GreenHelix: "Mawu Lis, come forth, for I summon thy light... Bring forth your glory!!" *She called out to the spirits unknowingly as a pair of eyes watched her from a far. An evil creature lurked in the shadows. It watched Green very carefully as she began to dance around her fire, her flickering flames that looked like a bleeding wound against the dark night sky. Slowly the flames grew higher and higher as Green continued her dance, chanting to the spirit of all creation. The vile creature readied itself to pounce as the moment of awakening was drawing near. Suddenly Green stopped dead in her tracks, she could feel her heart pulsate as the power of Mawu Lis began to rise up within her. Slowly a large ball of white light climbed up from her very body and manifested before her in a ball of pure energy. Green slowly held out her open hands to welcome this great power into this world* Green: "Welcome, oh holy one... welcome to thy kingdom..." *Just as the ball of white light rested upon the palms of it's summoner, the creature that stalked Green came forth and attacked. This creature stole the light and ran off into the darkness of the wood, leaving Green mangled by her fire. The creature lunged forward into the broken moonlight. A Mutant Scorchio held it's prize high and admired it with pride, chuckling in a deep male voice.* Mutant Scorchio: "Neopia is mine..." *Green laid still, panting heavily as her own blood dripped down her face and puddled on the ground. She looked to the dark sky and cried with all her heart and soul as if looking for answers.* Green: "Ayza... where are you...? Come forth our protecter..." *Sob* *With Green's last ounce of strength she crawled out from the swamps murky waters and collapsed unconscious on a nearby road.*

**Lotta, a ghost gelupess, flew around around with a ling black and white spear in her black paw. The sharp, sharp black tip was covered in dried blood. A white furry clock was draped around her shoulders, and she wore a skull on her head. Being the keeper of the spirit relam, she was a goddess of life and death. She chose who dies, who lives, and who gets cursed. She landed near Green.**
Lotta: Get up you pathcic((sp?)) Neopet... **she scowls**

*Green moans softly as she slowly regains consciousness, the blood from her wounds were caked on her short black fur.*
Green: *Whimpers in pain.* "Mawu Lis..."
*Green suddenly looked up in shock to see the aggressive ghost gelupess with the nasty scowl on her lips.*
Green: "You... are you a Loa? A lost wondering soul looking for final peace...?"
*Green to a long hard look deep into the gelupess's eyes. There was an emptiness there, and yet, a warmth for life as well. Green's emerald eyes grew wide like deep, forest pools as she invoked Lotta's aura; possessed by her powerful presence.*
Green: *In a mundane voice.* "No... you are more then a simple Loa... You must be a Baron Samedi... a guardian of the grave..."
*Green slowly stumbled to her feet, a dark shadow cast over her glowing green eyes.* "Well Baron Samedi, it seems my channel to the realm of the spirits has been invaded by the void, allowing you to walk freely amongst the living.... Teh..."
*Green spit blood on the ground as her possessed body took on Lotta's persona.* "I was chosen to give birth to a new Mawu Lis, a spirit of creation tonight, with it I was to use it to create a new world for neopia, a new beginning... but it seems a Baka has beat me to it.... darn that evil spirit who takes the form of an animal... If I can't get the Mawu Lis back, Neopia will be in grave danger..."

Deep within the Haunted Woods sits a human boy. He is waiting on a boulder with a glaive held loosely on one hand. His brown hair is pulled into a ponytail. Beside him stands a Darigan uni, also waiting.
"Do you think it is done?" the uni asks.
"Perhaps. Go find out for me. I will continue waiting."
The uni bows her head and then leaps into the surrounding darkness, running towards a swamp not too far from where the boy waited.

Lotta: I am the Spirit Keeper, I kill people, and yet I give them life. So yes, I guess you would say I'm a Baron Samedi... So, what is this you are talking about? I have never heard of such a thing, I was born with time it's very self... I have heard about everything, know every truth and every lie, but never of something like this... Now, get up and tell me about this... **she pulls off the ivory colored skull and sets it down next to a grave.**

Jade, an Aisha, had been slowly working her way through the woods. She was a dark navy, with silver flames at her paws and the tip of her tail, the only thing clearly visible. Above those were even darker navy flames, going up to her sleek body. Her extremely long ear stalks were short and thick, as she had bunched them up. At the other end of them, un-attached, were leaf-shaped ears, made of a hard type of jade, the stone. The other ears were also made of the same jade... yet Jade could hear perfectly. She carried nothing more than a dagger, a small one, instead of her usual mallet. The dagger's blade was a bright silver, and the hilt black.
She was experienced, although very young. Seeing a Darigan Uni pass her, she quickly ducks behind a tree, peeks her head out, then darts to another tree. Jade proceeds to follow her, always darting from tree to tree, careful not to make a sound, lest she be seen.

A Yellow Gelert opened her eyes, seeing a blue blur fly past her. She stared as the Darigan Uni passed her. When it was gone, she just continued staring at where the Uni had passed. The Gelert's name was Alie, and she had ventured into Haunted Woods, trying to get a fight with The Brain Tree or some other beast that lurked in the shadows of the night. She had stopped to rest for a bit; it had been a long day from Neopia Central.
Alie took her bag and slipped it on, taking one of the 2 Lost Desert Daggers out of it. It was different then a normal one though, instead of being yellow and orange, the colors were grayish blue and dark red.
Her Gelert ears twitched, hearing the rustling of something leaping from trees. She looked up, seeing nothing at all. But she knew from instinct that something had gone by.

*Green chuckles at the sight of Lotta's ivory skull. She slowly reaches out to it as she continues to speak.*
Green: "Hmm... I am a mambo, a vodun preistess. We are a secret society here in neopia, shunned for our beliefs. Our rituals consist of deep chanting and dancing, spiritual possession, and finally, a petpet sacrifice--"
*At that moment Green dug her nails deep into her closed palm, drawing deep crimson blood. She lightly drips her blood over Lotta's skull, tracing out a symbol across the crest.*
Green: "The blood of the petpet is offered as a pure gift to the spirits, and the Loa... We channel the Loa into our own bodies, giving them their final requests before they return to the grave... In return they bless us with a fraction of their aura. The spirits known as Mawu Lis, Baron Samedi, and Baka are all names of the spirits that we worship or fear."
*Green stopped tracing her finger tips across the skull and watched as her blood symbol slowly disappeared into nothingness. She paused, then lifted her eyes to Lotta and stared deeply into them.*
Green: "Within the Vodun society, there are no accidents. Practitioners believe that nothing and no event has a life of its own. That is why "vous deux", you two, you too. The universe is all one. Each thing affects something else. Scientists know that. Nature knows it. Many spiritualists agree that we are not separate; we all serve as parts of One. So, in essence, what you do unto another, you do unto you, because you ARE the other. Vo dun… View you. We are mirrors of each others souls."
*Suddenly Green turned her head to the side and with a gentle gasp she whispered under her breath.*
Green: "Something's coming..."

The Darigan uni steps out of the forest to stand before Green and Lotta.
"Something is here," she intones and her words seem to carry a weight of power.
Then she nods to Lotta.
"Strange to see you here... my master will find this quite interesting... and Green.... I am here to thank you. You have done my master a great service today... one which will echo down the halls of history."
Then the uni chuckles and scuffs her hooves, waiting.
****
Off in the forest the boy hears a rustle. He quickly stands and grips his glaive tighter.
"Nightshade? Back already?" he asks tightly.
He steps forwards, towards the noise, searching for it's source.

Lotta: And what are you doing here, Nightshade? **she takes off her coalk((sp?)) and drapes in on the grabs. She grabs her spear, stabs the skull, then the cloak, and then the middle of the grave.** There, it's all ready now... **turns to Nightshade. Then she hears a rustle behind her. Turns around, and rasies her spear highly**

Jade takes in the situation at the best she can, but she has a disadvantage at not being able to see what's infront of her, due to the tree. "Alright, there's... guys... there... and they're... talking... and stuff..." she mutters to herself.
Dagger at the ready, she swings herself to the top branches of the tree using her ear stalks, in plain view, sitting casually as if she wasn't disturbed by the three down below.

Lotta: **throws her spear at Jade. It misses her head by inches. Looks up at Jade with her steel grey eyes. She scowls** And what are you doing here?
((Lotta always scowls... She very scawy... Lol))

"Why should I answer to you?" Jade leans back against the trunk of the tree. "By the way, lousy shot. You should work on it." Jade smiles as she flicks the dagger upwards and catches the blade with her paw.

Lotta: Do you not know who kills everyone that dies? **smriks** And besides, if it were up to me, the spear would of gone to your skull... **before the spear comes back to Lotta, it starts to drip fresh blood. A few drops land on Jade's head, then the spear comes back to Lotta** It wasn't me who missed, if you must know, the spear has a mind of it's own...

Jade brushes the blood off of her head, still smiling, although her mind was racing. She drops down from the tree and circles Lotta, saying, "A mind of its own, pftt. Y'know, that's one of the stupidest excuses I've ever heard for a lousy shot." Jade unsheathes her dagger in a blinding flash of light. She slowly drops and moves backwards, out of sight. She moves back into the woods, with the trees sheltering her, but sitll at the edge of the forest.
