((OOC: Billie, Harmony was SO spot on! She was hilarious to read. xD And Cordy: Aw, it's good to see her back.)) HarmonyIllyria cocked her head to its side, and glared at the tentacle-owning demon. She gripped the slimy limb with her own fingers, thinking over the numerous ways of approaching the prey. With a blink of an eye, Illyria was at the demon's side. She quickly wrapped her newest weapon around its neck, and began to choke the life out of it. The monster began to release throaty noises instantly. Illyria smirked, as she felt the enemy go limp, after about thirty seconds. "Pitiful." She thought to herself. Suddenly, Illyria's ears easily picked up the sound of Harmony's fall. The sound alarmed the Old One, and she took action. Illyria threw the tentacle downward, next to its deceased owner, and made her way over to the nearby vampire. She spotted Harmony right away, and halted once in front of the girl. Illyria's head aimed down, inspecting Harmony; Her face held a stiff molding. "A halfbreed at my feet: The way it should always be..." She spoke coldly. Illyria wasn't necessarily speaking to Harmony, not as much as she was herself, at least.

I love how I said that I hoped it was Groo in the SPIKE Q&A thread. Brian wasn't messing with me after all! And I'm so glad. After seeing Groo in the Lorne Special, I needed more of him. And as for Spike's person, my bet is all on Dru.

((OOC: Drusillacakes, you play Dru amazingly! Her lines are so herself, with those twisty dialogues. I'm in love with her all over again! And Wesley and Spike's writings are also so great! It was great to see Lilah appear! Everyone is doing an amazing job so far.))
Illyria spun on her right heel, turning around hastily. Her hair flung in front of her view, blue streaks flashing only for a moment's time. Her icy, blue eyes gazed around this newish area. It seemed familiar in a way, yet so different at the same time. Surrounding Illyria was flames, and bloodshed. The fire danced in place, discharging heat in all directions. Illyria could feel its warmth on her hardened, shell-like skin.
Looking upward, into the sky, she spotted the sun. It was lighter than usual. And even more to Illyria's surprise: The sun was met by the moon. Two opposites in one meeting ground. This Hell world was getting more interesting by the moment. Illyria found it much more to her liking than Wolfram & Hart's office building. Roaming around those halls had driven her to madness.
Illyria began to walk along. Her booted feet stepped on dirt slowly, one moment at a time. As she made her way along, the Old One caught sight of a passing character. It was surely a citizen of Los Angeles. Illyria's first instinct was to smash it like a bug, but Wesley's influence came over her once more. He had taught her not to kill the innocent. Deciding to honor his death, Illyria nodded at the citizen as she passed.
A handful of minutes went by, and Illyria continued searching this new place. Death, darkness, and blood was more of her preference, and she was inspired to inspect it. As Illyria went to take another step, she was stopped. Something wrapped around her ankle, intending to do her harm. Reacting instantly, Illyria turned her head within a millisecond. The grabbing thing was a tentacle belonging to some slimy, squishy creature. Illyria forced her leg forward with all of her might. The tentacle was ripped from its owner's body, and green blood spurted out of the wound.
Illyria reached down, and picked up the motionless tentacle. She intended to strangle the beast with it's own limb.

((OOC: Okay, I'll start us off...))
Illyria stood in the middle of that alley way, feeling empty inside. Hollow. And technically she was... Mostly. She had entered this shell, and exterminated all of its organs. Its core. Its inhabiter: Winifred Burkle. In order to give herself life, Illyria had taken one. Just one meaningless, human life. Yet, somehow, that meaningless life wasn't so meaningless. It was changing Illyria. It still was. Fred may have been dead, but she wasn't gone. Not completely.
"Let's go to work!" Angel had told them. The only, remaining four. Angel. Spike. Gunn. And herself, Illyria.
Just as Angel's words flowed through her ears, Illyria was greeted by the demon army approaching. One big, bulky monster swung its weapon at her, but Illyria dodged it easily. She jumped into the air, avoiding the attack, and swung her left foot at the beastly thing. The impact she gave was without mercy. It had been a deadly blow to the head.
Having taken one down within moments, Illyria continued to battle. As some time passed by, Illyria had counted fifteen demons slew by herself. Her eyes caught a glimpse of her own hands... Blood stained them both. This new, demon blood was surely mixed with Wesley's blood that was also caught onto her palms. For some reason, this fact bothered her. Wesley's blood was purer than their own. He was better.
Rage flew through Illyria, and she suddenly threw a blow at a demon to her left. Her head spun in all directions, searching for a new victim to slaughter. Illyria needed to release this emotion on something, through her fists. She caught a view of the others, her 'team mates', also fighting. They tried to live on, it seemed, but the upcoming outcome would obviously be death. Why try? Death was inevitable.
"Inevitable..." The word brought a memory with it. Ilyria reached to her head, feeling a mental image appearing to herself. Fred. "Can I say somethin' about destiny? Screw destiny! If this evil thing comes, we'll fight it and we'll keep fightin' it until we whup it. 'Cause destiny is just another word for inevitable, and nothing's inevitable as long as you stand up, look it in the eye, and say, 'You're evitable!'"
Illyria regained her self control. She straightened her spine, and entered the battle once more... Only to discover that she was not in battle.
Fire surrounded herself. Scarlet tints everywhere... Illyria's cold blue eyes shot around, trying to make sense of this. She was now elsewhere? In another place... Was this a place? A scream could be heard in the distance.
"... Hell." Illyria simply stated. A few moments wandered on by, and then Illyria grinned. "Inevitable."
((OOC: Woh, that was longer than I expected. o.o Don't feel pressured by this long post; Posts can be any length. Just try to avoid one liners, at least. Please!))

Time Bomb. Just one of the best Angel episodes. Illyria-centric, after all. How could it be bad?!

No worries. I actually added Dru to the list, mainly for yourself. Somehow, I figured you'd like to pick her. So, as of now we have all picked one character. If anyone wants a second character, please comment below.Once again, the characters remaining are: Connor Gunn Lorne Groo Nina Gwen Betta George Kate

^^ I'd say write it all in one post, if they are talking to each other. Maybe write their POVs' in different colors, so that you can tell who is saying what easier. It'll probably start out with Spike and Illyria together, and Angel somewhere else, like in the comic, so I don't think you'll have to worry about it for a while from now.

Well, After the Fall takes place before Season 8. So, your Harmony would be the one from Season 5. She wouldn't have her own show until out of Hell A.

Since we've decided to play in 'episode format', meaning we RP one 'episode' at a time, do we want to make each 'ep' in its own thread, or use one big thread for all of them? I personally think multiple threads would make it easier to keep track of. Feel free to express your own opinions, everyone. Also, if anyone wants to double up with another character, go ahead and start thinking of one. Please keep in mind that drusillacakes still needs to pick a character, so I won't be adding on any doubles until she had picked one as well. (The Night Lord has Spike and Angel, though this was decided earlier, and I am not taking away an already given character, unless the claimer doesn't want him/her/it.) Although if another person joins, they will be allowed to pick one to start off with, like the rest of us. I was thinking that we should probably start within the next few days, at most. Once drusillacakes hops on, and chooses a character everyone will be set to RP. New comers can always grab a remaining character, and join in whenever, of course.

I always wondered why people collected both copies of the covers for series... Now I know why. When you like something this much, it's hard to resist.

Added you to the list(s)! I put you with Harmony, but if you'd rather play: Connor Gunn Lorne Groo Nina Gwen Betta George Drusilla Kate feel free to switch to one of the above. I added the 'Character List' to the original post for everyone to see who is available. Connor and Gunn are the only two that are really needed. The others are mostly minor. I did add Drusilla to the list, because she was in Hell A at the time, we just didn't see her.

O.O
Wow. That cover... Wow.
Even more beautiful when colored!!! It's definitely one of my favorite Urru covers now. For sure. No question. It's hard to believe that a bit of color can make it look so different. Wow. Can't wait to get my hands on that thing, as well as the other cover. Both are great in their own ways, but... Like I've said: "Wow."

Yeah, like I posted above, Lilah would be amazing to see again. As long as they don't mess up her character, of course.
