Oberon Refugee

Character Information

As a child, Seth was a United States expat stranded by the war. With their parents missing, and abandoned by guardians, he raised his younger siblings in a small station for the first few years until the Reich overtook. He created Russian aliases for himself and siblings before being conscripted into the Reich.

Eventually Seth, known at that point as Aleksander, and his brother "Sergei" were able to smuggle their sister out and flee the Reich. They traveled to Oberon together, picking up Seth's lover along the way, and ultimately parted ways with Sergei.

At present Seth is in Polis with the rest of the Oberon refugees.

Topics I Participated In

Exodus: Leaving Moscow

Started by Morrigan · March 13, 2022

There was a tension in the air at Polis that was thick enough that it felt like you could cut through it with a knife. Everyone knew the train was expected to leave the station that day. Those that were approved to be on it were packed and ready to go, while others that wished to go but were denied were preparing in other means. You could see in the eyes of the people the anticipation of what was to come.
Those that were chosen filled the train as much as Violet and Red believed they could handle on the long and arduous journey and those they felt could help them, those they believed they could actually help their futures if there was something out there.
Though, they could have been equally dooming it.
--------------------------------------
The chosen boarded the train and got settled with their meager amounts of belongings before the rush would happen and the rangers and soldiers that had decided to come with, were having to protect the entrances to the train.
It was like a ripple in the crowd as the last few were starting to board, there was a surge of disgruntled Polis citizens that wanted to strike out and try as well.
-----------------------------------

This event is a GMed event. I will wait one day before adding on the next parts that happen which gives you 24 hours to respond how your character reacts in this situation (whether they are leaving, staying or one of the people trying to get onto the train that was denied).
I will react and provide story or difficulties for anyone that is involved.
Brothers 3

Started by Kaella Corvus · December 15, 2021

After leaving the workshop and completing her quick bout of work for the day, Kae had returned home to Sergei. She crawled into bed and napped with him for a while. Afterwards they went for a meal like planned.
She was a little nervous about the plan to cram him into a space with his brother. Once or twice through the next day she considered telling him. Ultimately she decided to stick to it.
So as the twelve hour mark rolled around she sought him out.
"Hey Kotik," she greeted as she approached.

Brothers 2

Started by Richie "Sergei" Redford · December 7, 2021

The crew of two Oberon people, Seth and some other guy, were ready at the gate. They were being escorted by a Ranger. It was supposed to be another one but it was substituted last minute for the last person Seth wanted to see.
Richie walked up to the group and pulled his mask on. “Let’s get this over with,” he said as he began toward the air lock to head the out and get the parts that they needed for the broken down piece of shit they were trying to repair.

Brothers

Started by Richie "Sergei" Redford · November 9, 2021

Richie had settled in with his newer life with Kae. He was still only a temporary ranger so he couldn't take Kae with him so most of his funds went to keeping them fed and her housed while he worked. She did help where she could, with what she did best.
It was about the time that the flood of refugees from Oberon happened that Richie knew that something bad was about to happen.
He tried his best to avoid what he could of the refugees but it was an inevitable moment that Seth or Tonka would see him and approach. He mostly hoped it would be his sister and not his brother though life didn't always turn out the way that people wanted.

Welcome to Polis

Started by Violet Selvaggio-Redford · January 17, 2021

Violet sat at the table for what felt like hours. She was on her second cigarette and tapping her jagged fingernails on the metal table. She knew this was an inconvenience but couldn’t they make their decision any faster?
Blowing out a huff of another breath of smoke she heard more boots pass the door as her nails tapped against the metal in a rhythm with the feet. She glanced toward the door, finally getting up to pace.
When the door did finally open it was a familiar face. “Finally someone I do know,” she said looking to Dagonet as she snubbed out her depleted cigarette.

Outside the Wall

Started by Kaella Corvus · January 10, 2021

The antibiotics had helped Richie get clear of the forest, so to speak, but it had still taken another week for him to recover. Even then he wasn't quite back in top form, though of course he never complained. Kae could see it in the subtle signs.
He was well on his way to making a full come back, though. Even as she could see his stamina lacking, she could see it was also improving. So she'd agreed to let him start taking small jobs again, on the condition she do the same.
That had led to a small spat between them. One Kae ultimately won, with a small concession to keep his mind at ease. She would stay inside the station as much as possible, and only take external jobs to the next station on the line when she could travel with a guarded group. With both of them working again, they slowly replaced the clip of MGR that Kae had used to help pay for the medicine. All the while they were looking for an opportunity to travel to Polis.
Finally, fortune took a turn for the better. Kae was scouting jobs in the market one evening when she came across a trade party advertising for an extra gun to replace a guard that had quit, leaving them in a bad spot. She hung around briefly to ask a few questions before excusing herself to track down Richie.
"Sergei!" she called out when she finally spotted him in the crowd, giving a wave to draw his gaze to her.

King of the Faeries

Started by deTimber · August 1, 2020

It wasn't often that Dusty got special assignments. The Reich liked him, but he was an American in a Russian nationalist, anti-mutant gang. He was never gonna be at the top of the pecking order- at least, that's what he'd told himself when this all started. Post-recent events, they started making themselves less pro-Russian, more anti-mutant, which meant that good Dusty was getting a lot more respect than he figured he even aught to. Just as well- he was working hard for his MGRs.

Today's assignment, though? Didn't involve shooting anyone. At least, not yet.
"So, Hauptmann," a Reich officer stated, pointing at the map of the Metro laid out before him, "in order for us to continue our expansion unabated, we must be rid of the occupants of Oberon station. However, there is much we don't know- strength, weapons, fortification. We need someone that isn't often in our front line, someone who can pass for another wanderer through the tunnels, or a Stalker, perhaps. Can you do this?"
"Not for free," Dusty said, the cigarette between his lips shifting slightly with every syllable. "If I get caught out in hostile territory, I'm a suspicious bastard. I may be good at Russian, but they'll know I'm an American just by looking at me."
"Do you plan on going in your gear, Hauptmann? There should be no way for them to discern you from the common subhumans infesting their station."
"You can tell a lot about the person just from the way they walk, sir." Dusty took a long drag off his cigarette, tapping the ashes on the edge of the table. "I'll do it. But I want my usual rate plus half for the trouble."
"Done," the officer replied. "We will hold onto your belongings until you return. Your mission is to gather any sort of military intelligence you deem notable- troop numbers, movements, positions, armored vehicles, fortified positions, leadership, the works. Should you be compromised, I will have a panzer ready to move down the line, but it will likely not be able to reach Oberon. You will have to meet it somewhere else on the line."
"Got it," Dusty agreed. "Shouldn't need evac anyhow. This kind of thing's not too difficult. I'll report back in ASAP, but don't expect me for at least a few days."
"Very well, Hauptmann. Dismissed."
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

The trip to Oberon was uneventful. No longer was Dusty in his military fatigues- he looked like a stalker now, with baggy surplus gear and a tac mask that covered everything below the eyes. Made him a little bit harder to identify, ideally, although he doubted he'd meet anyone from the Reich or the USMC in Oberon. He didn't know much about the station- some of the boys dismissed it with chuckles as 'Polis Junior', and if that was the case, then hell, this would be easy as shit.
He made sure his Shambler was unloaded and safe, intent on making a decent first impression, before setting off. It wasn't an easy trek to get to Oberon while not looking like a Nazi, but he'd make do.

And indeed, he made do. Didn't take him long, longer than it honestly should have, but still not terribly fucking up his timetable. He had no trouble infiltrating the station. Not suspicious enough to warrant too many glances.
Now he just had to make sure to stay inconspicuous. The intelligence he needed was sensitive, and someone spying on the barracks or mechanics wouldn't be viewed favorably. He had to get as much information with passing glances as he could, only taking risks when he knew the coast was clear.
It was gonna be a long couple of days.

Promises

Started by Alice Gregory · July 31, 2020

Alice, Seth and Tonka settled into a routine in Oberon. Seth helped out with the security and did stalker type runs with other guards which kept them fed and sheltered. Not to mention that Violet and Red took care of them too. It didn't mean that the ex-prostitute wasn't getting restless sitting around what felt like all day. There wasn't much to do as far as forms of entertainment and with her previous job out of the question she didn't have any work either.
Eventually she started to talk to Seth about teaching her how to stalk. She'd only been on the surface the one time she got sick but her face was healed and she figured it was time to try it. To give her something more than a mundane life of hoping he came home every day.
The argument always ended with. "I know you're capable I just don't think its the right time yet."
Finally, Alice made it the right time by convincing her brother Derek to stall Seth, as he was the partner for that day, to let Alice come along. "Today," she said to her Dorogoy.

Only One Survivor

Started by Alice Gregory · March 23, 2020

Tonka had eventually returned to quarters, coming to check on Alice and Seth often.
Alice seemed to be recovering until her fever returned and it was higher than before. She was sweating even in the cool environment of the tunnels. She rolled to her side, her abdomen cramping hard enough to make her cry out before she felt something warm, wet and sticky between her legs. She reached down under the sheets and pulled out a handful of blood. "Seth?" she said, her voice trembling as she saw the blood. "Somethings wrong," she said not realizing tears were running down her face.
In her gut she knew what this was but she didn't want to admit it to herself in that moment.
They had lost the baby. Her body not able to handle all of the stress of it all.

Just in time

Started by Alice Gregory · October 7, 2019

Alice was still dwindling as she lay there with Tonka stroking her hair telling her stories about her brothers.
It would be a whirlwind as Seth arrived at the gates with the Prussian blue and other medical supplies that Violet had weighted down her pack with. He was held at the gate to be sure that he was not bringing anything extra in as the medication was whisked away.
