Just incase people are curious about the sculpture I’m comissioning here is his Facebook
So one of the pieces he finishes I’ll be giving away as the prize for a Competition I’ll announce later on. Still trying to decide on a theme for the competition. It’ll be open for about 6 weeks for entries for maximum opportunities to enter or resubmit entries. More details will come once I’m ready to announce it fully.
@Nocturnal_Stillness I JUST discovered your little demo for S2, and damn…I honestly cannot wait to see what kind of monster ass-kicking, superpowered, steamy goodness you have for us next.
Shade scythe, shade scythe, shade scythe. The “Death” scenes for that in the first game were surprisingly badass. I wouldn’t mind personifying the Reaper again.
There will be more “Reapery” scenes for sure. In the update for season one Shade powers have been streamlined (a lot of powers were too similar and added more code for little reward i.e blade and twin blades for example. But now its just blade and the MC can use two contextually.) Kusarigama has been removed but scythe is definately kept.)
Having to tone down the Christmas scenes as taking too long on planning them. Gonna leave them bare bones for now more simple than originally wanted but can go back and improve later with fan feedback. I really want to start working on the silver Cross Inc parts.
Meanwhile making preparations for the competition while waiting for the prize to be made. Trying to settle on a theme. Can’t decide whether to have a specific theme or let the entrants pick what they want to submit?
A Halloween slasher themed case at the MC and Craig’s old high school. The two are brought back to their old home town (along with the RO should Craig not be the one) to attend a high school reunion and wind up investigating a series of murders and discover it involves members of Craig’s old gang and some of the MC’s childhood friends and he is the final target of THE SOPHOMORE SLASHER!!!
Seems like a fun way for your old bully turned potential friend to get some good development as well a look into the MC’s teenage years and give the RO a chance to see where you grew up while solving a mystery and eventually throwing down with a Jason Voorhees knock off (not the best choice i know but first that came to mind) to save your friends and love interest. Would most likely be a great chance for some rips on the slasher genre especially since the three characters hunt these things for a living and underwhelming reaction would confuse their friends. Just thought I’d give my two cents and keep up the great work @Nocturnal_Stillness
Heh I’d never knock Jason hes the king for a reason I just meant he wasn’t the best for the story I proposed. Who would you use Noc if I would make a guess Id say either Michael Myers or possible Fred Kruger in the flesh.
Personally as I read your suggestion as the killer being a shaoeshifter who cycles through the killers they watched in the movies so a mix of all of them (well obvious homages anyway) lol god imagine a blue boilersuit, hockey mask and finger knives all at the same time. lol
Ah this is why your the writer my friend because that is a brilliant way to introduce a new and creative monster while paying homage to a series of great slasher movie villains and dear god if I saw a hybrid of the Big Three coming after me I’m not sure what I’d do
I can’t claim credit for this one. I saw a similar monster on supernatural a few years ago but the shifter in question took on forms of classic hammer movie monsters. I just like the idea of a monster fanboy lol
Ah I remember that one it was a favorite of mine.If nothing else it would be a great fit in the Unnaturalverse in my opinion and it might be a cool way to make peace with Craig if your MC didn’t forgive them if you were to follow my story idea though I’m sure you could think of something way better. If nothing else it would give you a fun idea to make up fun slasher movie titles and allow the fanboy to try and choose his own name ( I’d make him choose something awful and have the MC make their own better suggestion, some nice banter potential there) Thanks for responding so frequently Noc and I cant wait to see the SCI story you’re writing
You’re welcome. I’ve been looking for a reason to go back as there are a few named characters you could meet in S01E01 that I want to go back to. Namely Michelle and her brother and also Gabriel(la).
You're almost dozing off when something disturbs you sit up, listening intently and you hear it again.
*if (romanced = "Victor")
It's a scratching sound, sharp and constant and it's coming from the chimney. A snarl seems to echo through the walls immediately your on your feet.
*choice
#I'm already reaching for the gun on the table.
You know the gun is fully loaded, it always is these days, ever since the attack on the SRT. Your on the feet by the time the disheveled man come tumbling out the fireplace.
The vampire scrambles to his feet but at this range there is no way you can miss. As you pull the trigger you consider the ammo loaded into the magazine.
*choice
#…hollow point might not be able to kill him outright but it can buy me time to drive my dagger into his heart.
Your bullets smash into the vampire's chest sending him stumbling back into the fireplace while you snatch the dagger from the table. Before the vampire can recover you've already closed the distance and bring the dagger down hard.
A strong grasp catches your wrist at the last minute, the vampire stopping the blade a few centimeters from his heart.
*if (physical >40)
It's too little too late, your momentum and strength catches the vampire by surprise and the tip of the dagger penetrates his heart.
*goto victor_cheer
*else
You curse, as even with your momentum the blade doesn't budge anymore. The vampire snarls and the blade starts moving away from his heart. Panicking you jam the gun back into his chest and empty the clip. At this close range even the hollow points should shred enough of the heart to disable the vampire. He goes limp allowing you to finally drive the dagger into his heart.
*goto victor_cheer
#…silver bullets might only bother the vampire but they would buy me time to drive the dagger into his heart.

#…even at this distance the magnum rounds would make a mess of the vampire's heart.
Your bullets smash into the vampire's chest blowing a nice hold where his heart would have been. The vampire hits the floor fully dead, at this range the .50 caliber rounds wouldn't have left much left of the organ. Still you step forward to plunge the dagger into his chest…just to be sure.
*goto victor_cheer
#I'm already reaching for the knife on the table.
The vampire is still disorientated allowing you to close the distance easily as you snatch the dagger off the table. You barrel into the vampire knocking him to the ground as hard as you can. Simultaneously driving the dagger downwards.
A strong gasp catches your wrist at the last minute, the vampire stopping the blade a few centimeters from his heart.

You curse, as even with your momentum the blade doesn't budge anymore. The vampire snarls and the blade starts moving away from his heart. Reacting you lash out with a fist, your knuckles crunch into the vampire's nose and he howls in pain. The grip of your wrist loosens and you push as hard as you can and the dagger finally penetrates the vampire's heart.

#My power is already responding to the threat.
*if (azure)
The Angelus is already forming in your hand. The blade of shimmering light causes the vampire to hesitate. The power throbs in your hands as you charge at the vampire. Who still disorientated can't react to you in time and your swipe takes the vamp's head clean off. His headless body drops to the floor.
*goto victor_cheer
*else
The Shade Blade is already forming in your hand. The shadowy blade seems to swallow any light that touches it, causing the vampire to hesitate. The power throbs in your hand as you charge at the vampire. Still disorientated, the vampire can't react to you in time and your swipe takes the vamp's head clean off. His headless body drops to the floor.

Standing over the dead vampire, you start to wonder how the hell it got into your chimney. Then you see the blood splattered not literally stapled to the vampire's clothes.
[i]Stop moping, hopefully this will snap you out of the melancholy that causes you to spend Christmas alone. Now open the door, I'm outside. V.[/i]
