Now then. On to Business. We have titled Redlight's little Club "The Court" because, hell, that seems to be what they want to be. The court is made up of Eight Members and One Kind of Sort of Member. Each have been given Titles to use in place of their actual names. They are as follows.
The Crimson King.
Real Name: That's Complicated.
Previous Affiliation: Proxies.
Height: Complicated
Eye Color: Amber
Hair Color: Still Complicated
You know him, you hate him, you wish he would stay dead... It's not me, shut up... REDLIGHT. Once the Biggest and Baddest of the Proxies, now a Psychotic Shadow of his former self, driven mad by... Now that would be telling Morningstar, shame on you... Known to be charismatic, cruel, megalomaniacal and a trashy dresser. That Hoodie of his must smell like the inside of a Chinese sweat shop. Despite all this, he is also very, very, very intelligent. Smarter than Me that is for sure and certainly smarter than YOU. Yes You Reader. Bad news is, he could also BE you reader and you won't even know it. He can assume direct control over anyone in his Network, and he likes to mark them by having them wear Red. Usually not TOO much Red, but there is always something and it is always visible. The Other Me that Spencelight brought back wore a Red Ring to show off what he was. So watch for Red people. It is the color of things worse than death. And more delicious, in the case of bloody, salty meat.
The Black Queen
Real Name: We Don't Know.
Previous Affiliation: We are Trying to Find Out for certain, but we have an idea.
Height: I dunno
Eye Color: Clueless
Hair Color: "Dark"
Based on Old Doc Marsh's Firsthand account, The Black Queen might be the Second in Command. Maybe. Possibly. Morgan definitely answers to her, but that isn't saying much because anyone with a brain would put Morgy-Poo low on the Totem Pole. Otherwise, can't really say much about her. Seems to be something of a cunt.
The Yellow Jester
Real Name: We have a Pretty Good Idea
Previous Affiliation: Also a Pretty Good Idea
Height: Complicated.
Eye Color: No One Knows, if the theory is right.
Hair Color: See Above
We are about 80% positive we know who this guy is. We just don't know WHY he would work with REDLIGHT of all people. If we are right, they are probably in the same playing field power and smarts wise. So it makes one wonder. If he IS who we think he is, and he IS really on Redlight's Team, we are in DEEP SHIT. The Guy is much scarier than I am, and I do NOT want to be anywhere near him.
The Purple Piper
Real Name: Francesco Porreca
Previous Affiliation: Maenads
Height: 5'9"ish
Eye Color: Blue
Hair Color: Brown
See here for details. And here. AND here. Someone we actually information on. It's a miracle. Creepy weirdo if you ask me. Well. He SOUNDS Creepy. Never actually met him before. Seems to think Redlight is a God. How VERY wrong he is. The Devil is closer. Think Dante's Lucifer. Smelly, Insane, Monstrous, and most importantly, TRAPPED.
The Wiseman
Real Name: Now That Would Be Telling wouldn't it?
Previous Affiliation: Scribes
Height: 5'10"
Eye Color: Green
Hair Color: Gray (Formerly Brown)
Proxy Bob has a history with this guy. He is VERY dangerous. Formerly known as Scribe Nu. Not the paragon of sanity or anything, but he is VERY clever. Knows his history well, especially the History of Eden and what is in there. He ran off with "Enoch's" Odyssey as we call it. Really, the entire Redlight situation as it stands is his fault. Redlight wouldn't have known shit about Eden if Scribe Nu didn't SHOW HIM what was in that Journal. Me myself? Old Valtiel, The Attendant, was able to SHOW me. Well. Most of it. Some of it was a bit too Mind shattering. Would have probably had me end up like Doc Marsh in his last days. Heh. Bottom line is, when we find this guy we will END HIM for causing this fucking mess.
The Pattern Juggler
Real Name: It's Fucking Rhodes
Previous Affiliation: Probably Not "Previous" if I know him, but it would be Proxies
Height: He is a douchebag.
Eye Color: DOUCHE. BAG.
Hair Color: Douchey and Red.
He is a Douche. Want his history? Here. And Here. He has NEVER worked for ANYONE. So I doubt he is REALLY working for Redlight here. He was identified by Echo as a member though, so we'll have to chat with him sometime soon. Much as I REALLY don't want to, as I would love NOTHING more than to break his DOUCHY neck. Douchebag.
Real Name: Morgan Sturn
Previous Affiliation: Timberwolves
Height: 6'4"
Eye Color: Dark Blue
Hair Color: Dirty Blonde
MORGY-POO IT'S YOUR TURN. Honestly, I don't know why Redlight recruited this guy. He is a thug with delusions of being a Holy Knight. And Redlight is his GOD. HA. Can you believe it? Carries a friggen Claymore around and expects to KILL SHIT with it. He is such a fucking idiot. I refuse to believe he is anything other than the Errand Boy of the Court. He was certainly nothing more than a Getaway driver for Doc Marsh. When Echo got away, Morgan was the one who got to play fetch. So, he is less a Gardener than he is a Dog. Hmmm. Hey. He wears a lot of Blue, so I dub him... The Azure Hound. NO. The Cerulean Mutt. NO. WAIT. I HAVE IT. The Blue Puppy. Yes. That fits him SO much better. He even has these big watery Puppy Dog Eyes. That he no doubt uses to confuse his Rape Victims. DID I MENTION HE IS A SERIAL RAPIST. BECAUSE HE IS. And it's VERY icky for MULTIPLE reasons. Can't wait to finally put this dumb dog down.
The Keeper of the City's Keys
Real Name: No Idea. He Might not have one. We just call him Jack.
Height: Last I checked it was... 5'11"ish?
Eye Color: Complicated. Again.
Hair Color: Ehhh....
A moderately reliable source told us of this guy's involvement with Redlight's Court. The source was, well, himself. He does not answer to Redlight, just as he doesn't really answer to anyone. The Attendants don't like him, and neither do I. He makes my Azoth feel weird and sick. Probably not human either. Though if he isn't human and he isn't like what Father is and he isn't an Attendant... I have no idea what he is. What Redlight wants with him is NOT a mystery however. It's in the name he gave him, you see. The Keeper of the City's Keys. Jack the Red Right Hand, Jack the Knife, Jack of the Lantern, Spring-Heeled Jack, Jack the Knave, Jack of Fables, Jack of Fear, Jack the Doorman, Jack of Jill... Jack of All. Really.
The Fire Witch
Real Name: No Idea
Previous Affiliation: *shrugs*
Height: Somewhere in the Middle of Giant and Tiny? Maybe?
Eye Color: Probably some White in there somewhere?
Hair Color: No Clue.
Her existence was noted as a freebie from Jack. He didn't tell us more, only that she was important to the overall plan. He offered to tell us more for a Price... But we were unwilling to pay what he was asking. So I am told. I was only there as security. She didn't seem to be present for Doc Marsh's little visit and none of the other members of the Legion of Doom have so much as mentioned her. Jack is not know for straight up lying like this, so we'll assume he is telling the truth. Can't say much else, sadly.
So THERE WE ARE. All known Members of the Court. Top of my Hit List, minus Jack and Rhodes (Sadly). If you see any of these individuals, please please please PLEASE call your nearest Proxy Hive. Or Cultist Camp. The Maenads, Apostles, Scribes, Dolls and Oathbreakers ALL want them dead too. We are offering FABULOUS PRIZES in exchange for information or corpses. Come Oooooon. Any Takers? Anyone curious?
...And someone should probably go tell Carter.
ReplyDeleteThat is, if he doesn't know already.
And I'm curious, but I'm not stupid.
Bring me a corpse. A Location. Anything useful. You will be rewarded. I promise. No sarcasm. No Games.
DeleteDon't even try anything. You won't be able to kill me. -- Jack
DeleteShut the fuck up Jack and get off my blog... Wait. You DO know what this is all about right? Enoch? Back in... 1952? The Winter Solstice? Feeding the Prisoner. You are partly to blame for this you FUCKER. Do us a favor Jack. If Redlight comes calling with a sacrifice. DON'T FUCKING ANSWER.
DeleteIt's been a long time since anyone's brought that up. Do I regret it? A little. I can't do anything about the past now. -- Jack
DeleteEND OF THE WORLD Jack. You won't be immune you know. The Attendants aren't so you sure as shit aren't. Do us a favor. Do yourself a favor. Don't let Redlight into the City. Period.
DeleteWas it the end? Or was it simply a new beginning? I'm sure you know a little bit about the fact that time has no meaning for me. Maybe that will suffice as an answer. Unless I need to spell it out. -- Jack
DeleteDon't be so arrogant. You know Time won't save you. That will get swallowed up too.
DeleteIt's a good thing I'm feeling generous today. I know how this will all end. It's my past, I survived the events that you are about to live through. -- Jack
DeleteTime can be rewritten.
DeleteYes it can. All I can and will say is this: I survived the upcoming events. I did terrible things during this, but I survived. Make of it what you will. -- Jack
DeleteWow...
ReplyDeleteSo, why is Redlight's height complicated? Everyone on this list whose height is listed, is very tall.
OK, first Timberwolves have bars, now they're rapists. For people that represent the fear of religion, they sure do a lot of sin.
The Timberwolves are THUGS who worship The Archangel. The Apostles are the actual servants though. Archangel barely noticed the Timberwolves, let alone gives them actual orders like Father gives to Proxies.
DeleteBut... Not to defend the morons, but... Morgan is not a good representation of the average Timberwolf. Especially given that he no longer worships the Archangel. Morgy-Poo fails so much the TIMBERWOLVES don't want him.
Sanna. Everything. EVERYTHING about Redlight is complicated.
You'd think a guy with a sniper rifle would notice all. Anyway I was just trying to piss Morgan off, rape is worst fear of mine, so I have a bit of a vendetta against rapists. Except David, 'cause he doesn't really do that stuff anymore.
DeleteWhat types of crime does Redlight commit? I hear he's evil. But I don't hear about what he does that is so evil.
Well aside from the stock standard stuff? Murder, Kidnapping, Torture, Torment of Runners and Proxies alike? I recommend reading into Good Old Cynthia's Blog for what he did to HER. Then I recommend looking at Nightscream's Blog. And Reach's Blog. And my OLD Blog to hear about his attempt to drag the entirety of Reality down with him with those fucking Syringes filled with Bleeding Tree Juice.
DeleteWhat makes him dangerous is his intelligence. He is smarter than you, me or anyone you know. He has plans within plans within countermeasures within backups within escape routes within ways to take everything down with him. And he has Power. More than you know. More than me. He could turn me into a shriveled HUSK or WORSE with just a touch. He could even BE me if we don't kill him or keep him out.
But you know what is worse? He has a Plan right now. We know what it is, despite his best efforts to keep us out. We know what he is doing and we are NOT going to let it happen. I am an Agent of the Status Quo, my friends. Redlight is going to do something that will have one of two end results. We all suffer a fate WORSE than death, or Redlight becomes God with a capital G.
I've read your blog, and Nightscream's. I tried to read Reach's but I didn't understand it.
DeleteA fate worse than death? And what would Redlight being a god mean for us?
Redlight being a God would mean all of are a part of his Network. He would be able to access our memories, personalities and bodies at any time. He can even mix and match if he wanted to, or Hollow you out from a distance. But that is just the standard Redlight Network bullshit. There are other things he can do if he wins this...
DeleteAs for the Fate Worse than Death, I am not going to speak on it. Ever. Because it won't happen. We won't allow it.
OK. If I can ever help in any way, let me know. I mean I'm friends with Kelevra and David. All psychos are welcome in my heart.
Delete"The Keeper of the City's Keys", Jack of All, red hand and so on, pretty sure he strikes deals with servants, runners and Fears, but those deals usually have a nasty catch.
Yeah that's Jack. He has a few other purposes besides being the cosmic equivalent of a used car salesman. Fucking Enoch found out and decided to write it all down and here we are.
DeleteI have a final question if you don't mind, just curious.
DeleteWhat of the Fears? Would Redlight be above them, below them, or one of them?
Currently he is just a cockroach compared to them. Easily squashed. But he is out of their reach right now, and about half of them don't seem to be worried about the End Goal here.
DeleteMaybe... Maybe it's happened before, and that is why they are here... And if it happens again they will just up and leave like they did... Not hard for them. The Attendants will be left behind though. I will be left behind and...
None of your business. Just... Tell me if you see anything that smells of Redlight.
You want to find Rhodes? Stalk Konaa for a while. I can guarantee that since he's back Rhodes won't resist fucking with him.
ReplyDeleteOh and FYI, I've already found and killed about 13 'Redlight Proxies'. All of them were wearing red and they attacked me on sight so I could only assume some Redbullshitery going on.
-Veigar
What do you call people who follow Redlight?
DeleteAnything you want, they have their heads to far up his ass to hear you.
If they attacked you on sight, odds are they aren't Redlit, And if they WERE, the fact they operated so openly means you missed whatever it was they were ACTUALLY doing. Rule 1 with Redlight. Things are NEVER what they seem.
DeleteOh, I found what they were doing. I just couldn't wrap my head around it.
DeleteThey were each planting this small metal rod into the ground, have no idea what the hell they does. I was planning on giving them to Xerath when I got back since he's godly smart about this science and technology and blah blah blah.
-Veigar
... Where. When? Agh... This could just be him throwing a distraction out. I already fucked up his Plan A, so maybe this could be Plan B? Or it could be a way to throw me off the trail of the REAL Plan B...
DeleteI FUCKING HATE HIM.
How would small metal rods help you become a god? Distraction, I say.
DeleteRedlight is a sneaky and clever bastard. If he has someone buy him a fucking Candybar I want to know about it to make sure that Candybar isn't a weapon of mass destruction. Metal Rods could be any number of things.
DeleteAll of them were in New Zealand, since I'm still here with Med. They were all found at noon here, give or take an hour or two, finding 2 or 3 per day for the past 5 days.
DeleteOnce Xerath gets a hold of these he'll be able to figure out if they do anything or not, confirming if it's a plan B or a distraction.
-Veigar
New Zealand? Distraction. There is nothing he needs there. As far as I know... Actually you know what, keep me informed about any developments there.
DeleteNew Zealand has a lot of volcanic activity. And sheep.
DeleteHe might be planting these things around the world for all we know.
DeleteMaybe they'd extend his Network if they activated? Who knows.
-Veigar
Not much of a point in it given we are blocking him from assuming direct control. You see Miss Annalee's post about her friend with the big icky black pimple? That was about all Redlight can manage for DIRECT interference.
DeleteIt's just mass speculation here. Maybe it's a massive kill switch, maybe it's some ritual shit, maybe they spew ice cream.
Delete-Veigar
When you are done with those Rods, destroy them. Just in case. And be REAL quick about it. Wait. Any markings on the rods at all? What color Metal?
DeleteOr ice cream flavoured with ritual shit, triggering a massive kill switch.
DeleteHey, forget what colour metal - what kind of metal? And is it a pure metal or an alloy of sorts?
DeleteI am assuming they don't KNOW what kind of metal yet. If they do, you are an idiot not to tell me first thing Veigar.
DeleteEach rod is made of reinforced steel with small copper platings scattered on it in no consistent pattern. They're approximately 1 ft 4 inch long and 3 inches in diameter. Normal colors for each metal, dark grey and brownish orange. All have a small red R engraved at the bottom.
DeleteAnd I get a weird feeling in my Azoth when I put one completely in my hand so I avoid touching them with skin.
Tipped at the end, but it's dull, not pointed.
-Veigar
And sorry for not telling right away, tired as fuck, not thinking very brightly. Mind is still set on EST time.
Delete-Veigar
A small "r" on them. Distraction. Don't bother with them. He wouldn't mark them like that if he didn't want them to be found, studied and obsessed over.
DeleteStill killing the duded planting them, less people for him to use.
DeleteAlso free metal.
-Veigar
Yeah. Yeah. Don't expect payment for Dead Ends by the way.
DeleteMeh, I'm getting a shit ton of metal from this. It's paying itself.
Delete-Veigar
Fuck. The one day I decide to wear red trousers. In the fire they go.
Delete...now that they're merrily burning, since you're in the area Veigar, let me know if you want any assistance dealing with these things. I'd also like it if I could get a look at the rod.
Where was it found?
Random places. Forest, mountains, beaches, you name it. I have 13 of them, one won't matter and I'll get more tomorrow if the pattern continues.
Delete-Veigar
Sweet. I'll email you a drop off point.
DeleteI'll keep a lookout for activity in the city.
Aight, so I killed about 15 woman wearing red shoes today, 3 joggers who were wearing a red wristband, or a red bandana thingie on their heads, then some businessman wearing red socks, can you believe it!? Red socks!? Fucking ridiculous! Aaaaand just as a sign on bonus, killed some old guy who was eating a red apple.
ReplyDeleteI can proudly say, I am keeping an eye out and I think my sharp eye has spotted another businessman with a red tie.
I have to ask.
DeleteWhat if someone just so happens to be wearing red? It is a very nice colour. I mean in my early running days I had a red hood. I ditched it because I thought it was attracting all the big bad wolves.
Good Man Kelly. You are doing the WORLD a favor.
DeleteWell Sanna. That depends on many things. If it is a runner, we kill them. If it is a Proxy, we kill them. If it is Average Joe... We STALK and kill them.
You told me psychos didn't go after average people. Liar!
DeleteAnd who told you that nonsense Minxie?
DeleteMorningstar.
DeletePfft, of course he lied! What else did you expect? Silly Minxie, just Silly!
DeleteHe said it keeps psychos from noticing you, so since I am normal, you theoretically shouldn't notice me.
DeleteI didn't lie. I don't notice ANYTHING about Average Joes I kill. They die and then I forget that I ever killed them. Because they are BORING.
DeleteAnd this is why I like to avoid the blogs... -- Jack
ReplyDeleteAgain. Fuck off Jack. You are not on my shit list. Mostly because I don't think I can actually kill you.
DeleteI shotgunned a few proxy heads open and their blood was red. DEFFERZ this Redlight peep.
ReplyDeleteDon't start with friendly fire, now.
Delete
