The Insane Asylum for the Supernatural was founded long ago by a secret organization called Supreme Beings. Their sole purpose is to “fix” or rid the world of Supernaturals. They believe the human race is the only race. The whereabouts of the superiors of the Supreme Beings organization and headquarters are unknown. The Insane Asylum has two Doctors by the name of Valentino and Matteo Vandanberg. Val and Matt are twin brothers instructed under the Supreme Beings organization to either fix the Supernatural or to destroy the ones that could not be helped. So, the brothers experiment, torture and manipulate for their own sick pleasure. In reality, they are the crazy ones. Through the connections of the organization, the doctors have two people that work for them to go out and capture the Supernatural. Gretchen and Rufus are a duo highly professional in what they do. At times, they can be comical and competitive with one another but they always get the job done
Characters Wanted:
Valentino and Matteo Vandanberg ~I picture them looking like Milo Ventimiglia~ Character Wanted: Rufus ~I picture him looking like Zachary Quinto~ Character Wanted: Gretchen ~Gabrielle? Characters Wanted: Captives ~You must be a Supernatural being or have Supernatural powers~ **Nurses and Orderlies can be put into the storyline by you if you wish to insert them there.* ~More characters will be added later on as the story progresses~
(Side Note:) Stirling’s storyline will crossover at some point.

Okay thank you Gabrielle!
Also, I forgot to mention, all Captives will be stripped of everything. You will be issued a white tshirt and white pants. No shoes. You will have a collar placed around your neck. The collar has 3 functions. It can shrink to make you choke. It can shock you. It can explode. The place is locked up tight with cameras in every room and guards to watch your every move. Good luck escaping.

• Valentino and Matteo Vandanberg • Rufus • Gretchen • Captives
On these characters, especially the first 3, can you give a little more origin story so that writers will know what their character will be doing, and their likes and dislikes, are they scientists, mercenaries?

Val and Matt are Neuroscientists, from a young age they were highly intelligent, at the age of twelve they were in college, They love surgery and discovering problems within the brain and fixing the problems. They hate to be wrong about anything and go as far to kill any accusers of wrong doings brought upon themselves. The twins are also highly OCD. Everything must be sterilized. They also like to rape and do violence to women who are on the operating table.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Gretchen and Rufus are hired for the doctors to capture and bring in Captives who are Supernatural beings or have Supernatural powers through the order of the Supreme Beings.
The duo grew up together in Russia where they learned the art of bounty hunting and trained to fight and use weapons. Rufus likes his guns. All types of guns, He is the master of knowledge on guns. Gretchen likes to fight. Her specialty is karate.
Both do not like losing a Supernatural to bring in. They lose money that way and they both like money. They are Mercenaries. They get paid to interrogate people as well.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Captives...they either are a Supernatural being or they have Supernatural powers. You will be tortured by the doctors or bullied by the orderlies or nurses. But you will always try to find an escape. Also, you will be given a drug on the regular to suppress your Abilities by a nurse or orderly.

If anyone wants to take any of these characters feel free to add or subtract what you want from them. Make them your own.

Could you give me a brief description/bio of Beth?
I'm writing a cast of characters for this story and I need her info to put there.
All I got is she is an amnesiac that was captured by Rufus and Gretchen, is she a Talamascan but can't remember?

Ole Jack
Is from Ireland where he owned a pub and had a private operation underground for boxing matches. People would gamble on who would win and it was always a fight to the death. The police were alerted of this information. Ole Jack fled to the USA and is wanted for murder.
He was offered a job as an orderly when Rufus and Gretchen found him passed out drunk inside the Asylum before it was operational. He accepted. Ole Jack keeps a sharp eye on all the captives. His pay is astounding. He loves his job. He carries a silver flask everywhere he goes. He keeps everyone in line. He is a straight up asshole.

Would you like a new captive?
It won't be my first time. I might even like it.

That would be very interesting! Maybe you could be kidnapped? How do you see yourself winding up at the Insane Asylum? Write a piece in whatever vc thread you want, to get yourself planted in and at home, or as a beginning point. The Night Island maybe? I don't know. We will read what you have written and in time we could have you kidnapped, unless you want to jump right in, but then you would have to think of a good reason to be there.
Cass, what do you think? (it's her story idea.)

You could absolutely capture me. I could even learn of your existence and knock on your door, begging to come in! I'm odd that way.
I'm happy to do whatever's most fun for all.

Ok, write a piece wherever you are going to make your home (not the vampire bar), and we will look into getting you captured.

Question: Where precisely is the Insane Asylum? Within what radius from it do Rufus / Gretchen operate?

Post by Gabrielle de Lioncourt on Aug 21, 2020 20:39:14 GMT 1
I'm not really sure where it's located, Cass where is it located?
I think Rufus and Gretchen are wherever they pop up.
I have an idea that will put you into that storyline while reopening another really big one. Let me know what you come up with and I'll let you know my idea later today, but it might be tomorrow.
I think you might really like my idea, but I've got to run at the moment and don't have the time to go into it.
But, I'd also like to see your ideas, cause maybe they can mesh into mine.

Thank you! I've been trying to piece things together, but as an outsider, I may be missing some of the picture.
I'm pretty flexible. I can either think on the spot or plan ahead with everyone. But since this isn't my story, I want to make sure I understand how it will work.

I might be able to do tomorrow. I'm in Europe, I'm an insomniac, but even I have my limits so early is good. What do you use?

Post by Gabrielle de Lioncourt on Aug 21, 2020 21:47:24 GMT 1
You are probably 7 hours ahead of us, so our midnight would be your 7am or something like that. Our group started as mostly from Europe, so no worries there, we had the best and most memorable time with them.
Unless someone thinks of something better, I was just thinking to use the chatbox below us.
I'm conjuring something big (story) for you...

I'm on GMT+1. So it's currently 10.20pm.
It's all good. I've worked with writers who were both a few hours ahead and behind. I'll post something tomorrow!

I think Daniel's character will fit quite nicely in the Insane Asylum storyline. The storyline branched off from the Talamasca in London board "A Taste of a New Life" thread. The story is taking place in London somewhere. Gretchen and Rufus kidnapped Cassandra from her apartment there. So, the Asylum can't be too far away from there.
I was thinking about adding Jessie Reeves to the Stakeout thread. Gretchen and Rufus are in that current thread where alot of action is going on.
Here's my idea; Jessie is there because she's been having dreams about the killer vampire (like Stirling) and Daniel has been following her out of curiosity maybe? Daniel gets snagged in one of Gretchen and Rufus's traps. Jessie gets bitten by the killer vampire that injects her with a substance that renders her paralyzed. (She can't help Daniel escape) They get captured.
Just an idea. Thoughts?

Ok, London - presumably the outskirts. Got it. Danny knows Jesse - are you sticking with canon? - If so, it would make sense for him just to say hi. Then come along with. I'm sure there's still plenty of latent journalistic curiosity in him. To be honest, he's not all there. Even if he didn't get caught in a trap, he might be fair game. He's unlikely to vanish; he's got no real sense of danger. What's the trap like?

I see some potential for Armand in this storyline as well, if you'll have me and if I can fit it! I was thinking down the road a little. Possible a rescue for Daniel. May need to confer with the Talamascans who are staking the place out.. or something along those lines. I'd love to join into the chat to find out more.

Thanks! What special adaptations do the traps have? If I am likely to get caught, I just need to know how they can capture a vampire! If you haven't had a chance to work it all out yet, don't worry. All I need to know is what has been established so far so I can work within it. If you haven't got that far, then I can either improvise or we can talk about it in chat.
