Sylum Inspiration: Nathan Algren

003TLS_Tom_Cruise_018

 

Nathan Algren is C0-Leader for Shogun Clan.  Nathan and Katsumoto have a unique relationship and the problems with arise with Nathan being from the West.  Because of his position in the Clan, Nathan’s bodyguard is Colonel Wales, though he drives him insane, Nathan has come to rely on the burly Meridius on many occasions.

The only true dark time Nathan had with his new home, was during World War 2, when he along with Kensei, Niccolo, Marco and Wales were betrayed and handed over the Japanese Military and taken to concentration camps. It’s something that bonded the five of them together, but they rarely talk about it. Though they did wish the destruction their Mates caused was recorded.

Sylum Assignment: Powerpuff Yourself

Assignment for all Sylum Followers

 

A long time ago, in a galaxy far far away …. wait wrong fandom!  Let’s try that again.  Many years ago when we were on the Yahoo Groups – there was a time you can make your own South Park Characters – many people had fun making Sylum Characters into South Park Style.

Last night the Powerpuff Yourself started up … so I thought – ohhh lets try this!

So I’m calling Y’all out!  Follow this link Powerpuff Yourself – if you have an RP Character make an Avitar for your Character.  If you don’t pick a Sylum Character – we have over 1000 Characters!!!! And make an Avitar.  As wordpress won’t allow images to be posted to replies *glares at wordpress*  Please send them to (sylumclan@yahoo.com) and we’ll post them for all can enjoy … make sure to label the character, clan their from etc…. just in case … especially since we have some actors play multiple characters.

Speed has already had some fun and totally Powerpuff Mr. Finch and Mr. Reese and we can’t forget Bear!

New Fic from Bj Jones (Non-Sylum Related)

2effd3c1445cb202dffc9050883c87cc

Introducing a New Page:  The General’s Office

Recently I was inspired to write something that wasn’t Sylum related. Shocking yes I know.  Speed of course fed the bunny, poked and prodded until the story was actually written.  Truthfully it’s been nice to step away from the Vampires for a while – especially when I realized it’s been over 4 Years since I wrote anything that wasn’t Sylum related!

The simple story turned into a series.

Wait.

Wait.

Yes it would seem that I can’t write anything simple.

Which left me with a dilemma.

Where the hell do I post it?

Livejournal: Okay so I haven’t used it in a while. I dusted it off, opened it up and wandered around the empty halls. This could work. Then quickly remembered what it was like to post anything over a certain size.  *eyeroll* and moving on…

Tumblr: Yeah no. No really. No.

A03: Hell fucking no. Why many of you would ask? Cause I despise their attitude, their politics, and the entitlement of some of the people on it.

So in the end it came down to well… I do have this blog.

And The General’s Office was born.

Basically anything new being written, for example this new series called Dragons of Interest … will be posted there.   And what do you know the first chapter is already posted!!  So step on over to the General’s Office, grab some Sencha Tea, sit and enjoy a new story from Bj Jones … while waiting for Nico to shut the hell up!

Character Introduction / Ghost and Darkness0

Sylum Inspiration: Jane Porter

635823316113482421-MAG-BY-MACDOWELL-1

Ghost and Darkness: Archivist/Librarian

 

Jane Porter was raised by her father, her mother died when she was young. Her dad took her with him, where ever he studied or taught. Also took her on expeditions around the world. He was criticized for not training a young lady eligible to get married.

His thought was she didn’t need to conform. Her husband had to be good enough for his daughter.

He always made sure she had a proper education and thought for herself.

When they traveled to Africa, she was thrilled to see a new place. When they had met John Clayton she felt a pull to him. When he told them his story, she was awed by his strength and courage. She didn’t want to return to America, but she wasn’t sure if she was welcome in Africa with him.

She was depressed when they got home, her father worried about her. She was about to tell him she was going back to Africa when John showed up looking for her. It was then he told her everything.

She traveled back to Africa, was introduced to the Clan and instantly overwhelmed. It was Tess that saved her and had a long conversation about what would be expected of her and what it was like to live in Africa.

Character Introduction / Ghost and Darkness0

Sylum Inspiration: The Caretaker

original

Ghost and Darkness: Caretaker

 

No one even knows his real name. Where he came from. Anything.

The Caretaker has always been behind the scenes, takes care of everything that needs to be done.  He’s always been loyal to his Sire, and when he left with Lock-Nah to start the new clan, he went along with them, knowing someone had to look after the crazy bunch of morons
