Everything is coming up Faceless

Alright... so... I'm gonna start saying some nice things about people so to preface...


Coda you're still a douchebag who really should have warned us a bit more about what Sammy was before bringing him and saved us a lot of trouble. Ryan you still don't deserve a cool nickname and I still hate you...

That being said... Coda you were right. Sammy was definitely worth the grab and Ryan... As much as I hate you... You're surprisingly useful as well.

So, let's go over what happened.

First of all. We have a new... friend? Sort of...

We've had Sammy monitoring all electronic communications in the area for any mention of us, this area, The Archangel or The Convocation and we managed to find out a few things.

First of all we found The Proxy. She was communicating with someone else and told us exactly where she was hiding.

Second we also found out exactly what we're up against. Partially from Sammy and Partially from The Proxy.

So, anyway. We got the proxy's location and we went to go meet her. Unfortunately she spotted us and managed to disappear. It wasn't long before Sammy got us her new location as she informed her boss that her old location was compromised. This time Ryan had an idea. See... There wasn't much way we could capture her without her just pathing out, unless we managed to make her unable to path out. Ryan despite his ill fated time as a drug dealer does know a lot about chemicals... Especially the various chemicals that can be used to make you feel super good and stuff. He also knows a lot about how illegal drug activity works and was able to get a supply fairly quickly. Long story short... We managed to sneak up on her this time and drug her so she couldn't path out. We kept her drugged until we got her back to base where The Facet took over her body so he could keep her from escaping. Then we just waited for her to return to her senses so we could talk.

That took a bit, but she did eventually sober up and we managed to talk to her.

First things first... She gave her name as Cerise En Folie. Which is french... I don't know for what and I don't care, but I assume it's a fake name. Doesn't matter.

Second she is not our enemy... Or ally.

As she explained it. She's not here to help us or hinder us, she's just here to piss off The Archangel. Her master... The Other Faceless Bastard sent her hear to capture The Archangel Servant overseeing the operation. A guy called Legion. Which by the way congrats on the atypical name.

I mean Archangel Servants who take nicknames are usually Biblical references or angels and yeah it is a biblical reference, but usually their references to the "good guys" and this guy just names himself after one of the most famous biblical demons... Cool.

Anyway she was very clear that she was here to capture him not kill him. Her master didn't want The Archangel to get him. He wanted him captured and kept alive, but useless. Somewhere where his master won't get any use out of him whatsoever. Which... Damn... Faceless is feeling spiteful... Not sure what happened between the two of them, but as long as it's something we can use.

So, I told Cerise that we'd happily help her in her goal as it would serve our own interests as well. Of course if she doesn't want to work with us we could always kill her. She wisely agreed to the team up. The facet released her and she vanished. So, we have a friend and we know who's leading The Timberwolves and The Nests.

Good day.

This is stupid...

Woah! Woah calm the fuck down.

... Okay? You calm?

Yes

Oh that's going to be confusing... Just a second.

Okay much better. So, now that you've calmed down and stopped spamming everything let me ask you a few questions so I can answer yours.

O.K...

What's your name?

Sammy.

Wait... You mean the corpse we have rotting in the back room?

What? What do you mean Corpse?! Am I dead?!

Shit! Wait wait... Forget I said that. Don't worry I'll explain everything, just stay calm... What do you remember before... this?

I was in my bedroom... I was playing with my toys... My favourite toy is this mechanical clockwork spider... It... Began moving on it's own. Taking my other toys into it and growing larger. It was really cool and then it... opened some kind of hole in the wall of my room... I tried to follow it through and then... I can't feel my legs everything looks weird I don't know where I am!

Shh shh... Calm... I need you to stay calm. You're a thoughtborn. 

What is that?

It means you've been removed from your body. That toy of yours was something called The Manufactured Newborn... It's... I don't know anything about you... I don't know what kind of references I could make that you'd get... Um... It's like a... Fuck it You did a swear! It's like a monster. It grows larger and stronger by absorbing machinery and flesh and it absorbed you in a sense. It took your mind from your body and changed your mind into data. You exist now only on the internet. You don't have a body anymore.

How do I fix this?!

You don't unfortunately. I don't know if it's possible to fix this. However, I can tell you one thing. It's not all bad. You can go anywhere in the world in the blink of an eye, see everything on the internet and you can be very helpful to us. 

Helpful?

Yes... As long as you stay calm we can talk to you and we can help you out. We'll be friends okay?

Friends are good. I like having friends.

Good. In that case I'm going to put a little message for you somewhere private. It will have a link that you can use to access a private chat room. A friend of mine will be waiting there to talk to you further. Anytime you want to talk just go there and if you need to scream and shout put it there as well. Don't worry. We're here to help.

O.K. Um... Can you explain now what you meant about my corpse?

NO! Er my friend will explain that in the private chat room... Yeah

Okay...

You still here?

I'm still everywhere I think?

Right... 

This electronic Bullshit is getting tiring.

I couldn't post yesterday, because of this fucking ghost in the system. It's infected the entire area now. All electronic communication or audio devices is being overtaken by this shit and it's pissing me off. You might be wondering how I'm typing this.

Well... I'm typing this on a random computer an entire country away from headquarters. I realized that I'm an idiot and I can still domain travel. It's not entirely random. Coda controls where I go so, hopefully he'll let me go back home.

So... We need to figure out what's going on with this thoughtborn and I have kind of an idea. We'll put it into practice today. Other than that no news on The Scarecrow, but a follower of The Faceless Bastard has also been seen in the area.

Yes that Faceless Bastard. No I'm not letting that terrible joke go. We're trying to find this Proxy to find out what they're doing in this area.

Hopefully things will get better.

I'm writing this from inside a Starbucks

The electronics problem has gotten so bad that if I want to inform you fine folks of how things are going I have to leave the shelter of my little home and find somewhere else with free wi-fi since my roaming wi-fi is similarly corrupted... Probably won't be long before this Starbucks is corrupted too...

Which should be funny...

Anyway I am taking this big risk of heading outside the safety of headquarters to write up a blogpost to inform you of our new adversary.

I went out looking for him. Brought Tiff with me. We might have had to kill some people and I thought she'd enjoy that.

So, we snuck out of the base and started to skulk around. Tiff was a pretty natural Skulker... We found ourselves a Timberwolf. Well a group... About three. There was only one soon enough though.

I carry a gun with me now. It tends to be useful. Certainly was here. Dropped one with a chest shot before they'd spotted us and hit another in the leg causing them to collapse and by then I was closest enough to decapitate the third while she tried to raise her own gun. Tiff grabbed the one I hit in the leg, by the leg, and dragged him over to me.

He and I had a nice little talk. Occasionally punctuated with screams from his end and at one point Tiff pinning his hand to a wall with a knife when he tried to stab me with a hidden knife.

Anyway from him I learned about The Masked Crazy Person. He's a nest calling himself The Scarecrow. What little I heard about him says he's a complete psychopath who abuses his allies and greatly enjoys killing people and has a very dark sense of humour.

Sounds like a real dick.

Can't wait to meet him.

Anyway after I learned what I could I asked Tiff what she thought we should do to the guy. She simply slit his throat and left him to die.

Good answer.

Oh The Facet is trying his best to figure out what this electronics distortion is... Though we're both thinking the same thing... We don't know for sure, but we're both thinking we've got a Thoughtborn on our hands.

Things are going on...

Well two things... One is more weird and the other is more worrying.

The Weird one is technology is going haywire... Toby was listening to Music when apparently his speakers started to scream at him "Where am I? What have you done with me?" over and over again and that message has started appearing on the tv on websites and I've had to delete it about three times so far from this blogpost alone.

We're not entirely sure what it is, but it's not a major concern just yet. What is more of a concern is I might have bit off more than I could chew... There are birds outside. Like just everywhere. Timberwolves accompanied by Birds and also supsiciously scarred individuals and also sightings of a guy in a mask... Which fuck that guy. I'm the only person allowed a mask around here.

So, yeah seems the Convocation and Timberwolves are working together to try and find and take us out now...

Bit of a problem... Not a huge one, but we should be very careful about going out now in case anyone sees where we come out from or go back into. I mean I obviously am very aware of the bad things that could happen if a murderous masked man finds out where your headquarters are.

Let's introduce some new people.

We got three new people and I'm gonna let two of them tell their stories and the last one I'll have to explain

First up... Let's talk about our recently mentioned Toby.

------------------

Hiya... I'm Toby... My... Er... My parents died... About 4 days ago... I don't know what's going on. The people here are scary. They want to erase everything. They won't let me leave. Help me.

Okay the scary guy in the mask is saying if I don't explain more he's gonna start cutting off my fingers... Um... Okay... Well I don't know why my parents were killed or who did it, but some people showed up at my house and shot my parents. I hid and the people couldn't find me. They found me, but didn't see me and just left. Then this woman shows up and tells me she's gonna help me... But then she killed a guy and now I'm stuck here with crazy people. I'd really like this not to be happening...

------------------

Too bad... Also The Children are still living up to their title. I and The Facet... Assumedly? Are the only members older than 25. Sandy is 22, Ryan is 19, Toby is 14, Tiffany or Tiff as she apparently prefers is 15 and the newest one is 8.

So, anyway Tiff is one of the only people I like here so far and I'll let her explain why.

------------------

My name is Tiffany, but as Sergei stated I prefer Tiff. According to the guy trying way too hard to be "Classy" I'm supposed to tell you my life story, but Sergei seems to only really want me to tell you guys one thing. I killed my parents. It was fun. I had a reason to do it. They were terrible people. Not to me I mean... They spoiled me actually, but they also kidnapped and murdered people for their "god". So, I did the same to them. The idea of erasing everything seems like a blast and it does seem like I'll get to "Erase" people in the more conventional sense before hand which is fun. I've only killed my parents, but I look forward to the opportunity to kill more people who deserve it. After all my parents taught me quite a bit and enjoyment of murder was one thing they... May not have intended to teach me, but I definitely learned.

------------------

 Lastly we have... Sammy. He is the aforementioned 8 year old. He's... seemingly catatonic. From what I understand though he was in a hospital being kept alive and for some reason we were told to go get him before they decided keeping him alive wasn't worth it any longer... We... Er don't actually have the facilities to keep him alive here, so I'm unclear what the point of taking him out of the hospital was... He'll probably be dead in a short time. I mean Coda must have some reason for wanting him "saved" and brought here.

Coda, however has shown no interest in answering any further questions. So, yeah. Tiff is like The daughter... I actually did have, but this one doesn't hate me and has not yet tried to kill me. She also seems to really like me... Not often I've had people like me.

Updates

So... Not much has happened. We got a few new people now. I'll have them post up their info soon and hopefully they'll be better than Ryan. As well I've been killing people. Which is always fun. The Archangel's Dogs are still looking for me and I've let them figure out my general area. They don't know exactly where we are, but by letting them know my general location I've made it so if I feel like killing someone I don't need to go very far. It's a pretty big area so they haven't been able to focus themselves in any one place meaning there are lots of stragglers and small groups I can take out at my leisure.

Oh and Sandy killed her first person today. Congratulations Sandy.

She was out on a collection mission and came back with the new guy. His name is Toby. Again he'll tell you about himself I'm sure, but anyway on the way back she ran into a Timberwolf who apparently knew she worked for me. He tried to attack her and Toby. The Facet had given her a weapon. An easily concealable knife. He actually provided weapons for everyone, but me since I got my own. Anyway she was attacked. The guy didn't know how to deal with the defense mechanism, but he wasn't going to stop trying. She managed to catch hold of him and tried to get him to back down, but being an Archangel cultist he obviously refused. Also now that she was physically holding him he knew at the very least where her hand was and he managed to get his own knife into her arm.

Apparently being stabbed in the arm was enough to make her panic, but instead of panicking and fleeing, she panicked and stabbed him about 3 times in the throat and then after he dropped ran back to our little home.

She doesn't seem as thrilled about her first kill as I am.
