Meet The Team

Change is good…or so they say.  During a horrific pandemic that swept across the world Carlos saw an opportunity and recruited the strongest survivors from the Empire.  Diana suggested her niece, Rebekka, as a woman strong enough to fill any power void in the core Empire left by expansion and disease.

This proposition made Carlos nervous as Rebekka hailed from the foriegn land of Maditrern…a land known for it’s chaos and it’s aggressive dislike of discipline.  After much consideration and a little persuasion by Diana, Carlos agreed to the deal and appointed Lady Rebekka as Night Watch Captain.

Carlos is part-owner of the store and in charge of purchasing and head of management.

After the coup attempt Carlos sees the need to allow everyone to grow and carve out a piece of the Empire to make their own.  He sees that constant in-fighting has caused him to grow old and bring about sleepless nights. He has seen the wisdom in ruling from a place a safety and to protect and grow the borders of the Empire while those with youth and energy charge forward.  He, of course, will keep The Hound Cyrus close and hungry….

Josh, his step-son, recently made an attempt to overthrow Carlos and as a result Josh is no longer Master of Coin and some of his allies have been ‘dealt’ with.  Carlos moves to protect himself from threats from within and strengthen new and old allies.

Little is known of this seeming happy game store owner, as he has surrounded himself with individuals who are constantly keeping him from any extended contact with the public.  Any attempts to discover his true nature up to this time have meet with failure. As the Empire known as IMMORTALS INC. continues to grow he has taken and almost ‘hermit’ like attitude towards everything.  

Seeing the weakness in other regions caused by the pandemic Josh has decided to carve out his own region by an aggressive assault on neighboring towns and villages.   While these plans were in secret his power and name grew too quickly that Carlos noticed.  This brought the Empire to the brink of civil war, but with negotiations from both sides there came a new understanding.

With the blessing of the Empire and without losing any power he held, Josh was sent out to conquer what he could and not only make his own region, but to grow the Empire in different and unpredicted manners.  Backed with all the support and a new set of allies Josh hopes to bring the name of Immortals Inc to all four corners of the globe.

Josh is part-owner of the store and is in charge of all the web and social media platforms.  Josh is also the day shift manager.

Josh has proven himself a mighty warrior that needs to only work on his strategy.  He maintains many secrets and builds even more clandestine allies, waiting for the opportunity to rule without any chance of failure.  Unable to turn Chris to his side, Josh turned to the blade and allowed his abilities with a thin blade to carve out more space for his budding plans….

In this attempt to take over Josh lost Taylor and Cyrus as a result of Carlos’ wrath.  Josh was reluctantly removed from control of the Coin and must rebuild his army in secrecy.  Josh will have a hard way to go as the most recent edition, Chris, seems to follow Diana and Carlos.  Josh will certainly have to sweeten the pot for Chris in order for his loyalty to be turned.

Being part man/part machine, Josh has been able to interface with any mechanical device since birth and he has used this ability to propel himself (both physically and financially) to a position of relative comfort and importance within the Empire.  While being helpful and intelligent, he has been able to blend into any situation and become part of any organization or clan. Using his stealth, Josh gained control of half of the Empire and has even secured control of the coffers.

Using sound tactic he has brought several allies into positions around him that, he believes, only secure his hold on the growing Empire.  With the placement of Marten, Taylor and Nancy in spots that allow him control of the growth he appears to have already made a move to control all that he sees.

Diana was the first that could see that change was needed.  She was not wrong.  She was able to predict that a baby would bring about the need for help and reorganization.  Diana could see that both the growth of  Josh’s region, a secret she kept so perfectly, and the ever increasing size of the people who visited our Empire a strong person would be needed to supplement and maintain the core region.

Diana worked her will and was able to bring her niece Rebekka from the wildland of Maditern and secure her a spot close to her.  Diana knows that this will work and allow everyone to take a moment’s rest and work on other projects.

Don’t let it be lost on anyone that Diana knows that she has also placed a strong ally and family member in her corner, increasing her diplomatic pull in all matters.

Diana is in charge of our Administrative Office and Human Resources, keeping all our records, paperwork, overstock and prize support in proper order.  Diana is also in charge of all special events and parties held at Immortals Inc.

Diana, using her feminine guile, has slipped in an old friend, Shleigh,  into The Empire to maintain a strong supply chain. Carlos was very reluctant as she appeared out of nowhere and he knew nothing of this new face.  This, along with her recent increased activity in the Empire, has caused a strong inner growth of our forces and has brought new allies into the fold.  Carlos, being extremely happy with her hidden abilities, has doubled up protection of her. She may one day rule in his place…

After seeing the what happened to Marten and Taylor, Diana protects not only Josh and Nancy but has been trying to take Chris under her wing and protect and nurture him.  Unknown to Carlos she hopes to make Chris a strong asset for Josh…at least she hopes.

As the  IMMORTALS INC.  Queen, Diana has been the constant support that keeps her husband Carlos sane and stable. Having found Carlos at his lowest point, she nurtured him forward and has found a special place at his right hand in the Empire.  Diana’s free spirit and carefree attitude sometimes clashes with rigid standards of the IMMORTALS INC. Empire, but her beliefs keep it balanced, happy and always on guard.  Without Diana’s leadership and logistical skills, all our expansion by the IMMORTALS INC. Empire would have turned into a disaster.

CARLOS was so impressed by her abilities that he sealed her place as permanent part of the Empire by pronouncing her Queen of the ‘HIGH TIMES’, a title that she wears proudly.  She knows her son (JOSH) hungers for more, but reminds him that patience is a virtue. She keeps an eye on our Empire, letting all who reside in it know that the Empire can only run smoothly if it runs like a family.

Hailing from the chaotic realm known as Maditern, a land of chaos and disorder, Rebekka is the long lost niece of Diana and has appeared to make a name for herself.   Carlos feels that she lacked discipline, but then saw that she was not the rebellious youth that he remembered.  Diana tells tales of how Rebekka has fought the horrors of the wildlands and returned with more than one head on her trophy wall.

After much debate and convincing Carlos and Josh agreed that fresh blood was needed to keep the Empire unpredictable and strong.  Carlos has some worries as her allegiance is obviously to Diana and Josh with no signs of wanting to betray either one of them. 

Let us if leaving the defense of the Empire in the hands of this young woman brings prosperity or crushing defeat.

It is best to keep on eye on this young lady…she is learning the supplies and goods better than anyone would have thought.  She will be a powerful ally if she ever chooses a side.

Nancy was a true neutral during the in-fighting and was left alone from both sides.  Both Josh and Carlos know that she cares for The Hound and makes sure he stays health so that he can continue to inspire fear in all those around him.

Loyal to a fault to Josh, Nancy has proved to be an able bodied assistant to the Empire.  Never once has she put a blemish on the face of IMMORTALS INC and she would do anything for any member of the family.  Even though she is kind hearted and loving, more than one person has suffered at the wraith that Nancy can bring down upon an offensive being.  Rumors are whispered throughout the Empire that Nancy is some sort of Witch or Elemental sent to guard Josh as he attempts to achieve some unknown purpose.

Nancy goes to great pains to make sure all of the IMMORTALS INC. family is cared for and never asks for anything in return.  This unquestionable loyalty to Josh makes Carlos wonder her true intentions, but for now it seems he is content with her positions and simply watches and waits.

While Diana and Josh were searching the less accessible areas of the Empire, they happened upon a cave located near a lake.  Hoping to find gems or rare shells they sent a party to explore this cavern. To the worker’s surprise they found that a small cave goblin already searching for gems and ‘shiny things’.  This goblin, who referred to himself as Grayton, had amassed a very nice pile of trinkets and was great at finding more.

Diana immediately saw the potential in such a hard worker that she hired him to keep digging and finding all the shiny things he wanted…as long as he gave some to Diana.  Grayton seemed thrilled at being a paid prospector and jumped back into his cave to continue his life’s work.

While Josh thinks this a great idea, he dreads telling Carlos that they now have a goblin on the payroll…

The Hound is unhappy…a brother that he did not know of has arrived at the kennel.  He plots…and he waits.

For now, Cyrus resides with the Estate of Carlos…as long as the food train keeps rolling anyway.

Cyrus, being a creature of instinct, joins in the fray…killing and destroying anyone or anything  on either side of the coup attempt by Josh. Josh did use him against Carlos by having him handle Marten, but that loyalty did not last long.  Carlos saw that Cyrus could be controlled with food. Using that knowledge Carlos brought The Great Hound unlimited steak and steak bones…far greater feast then the mere chicken nuggets offered by Josh.

Cyrus was born on an unholy union between a dog named ‘Dog’ owned by Max from Australia and a doberman possessed by a European name Hugo Drax.  Cyrus roams the lands owned by the Empire and only allows those he deems worthy into the territories. Once an individual has been accepted into the land Cyrus no longer cares for that person’s wants or desires.

No one is really sure who ‘owns’ this magnificent beast.  He appears to be a companion to Josh and has a special affinity for Diana.  Carlos and Cyrus seem to work together to patrol and secure the borders of the IMMORTALS INC Empire… but then again, they may be just probing each other’s weaknesses to see who will fall first….

While on a mission to South to deal with a Cultist problem, Carlos took refuge in an abandoned farm house.  The farm house seemed safe enough, but he was leery of the numerous chicken carcasses found all over the farm.  Setting some traps around the area Carlos settled in for a restless night of sleep.

Early the next morning Carlos found that one of his traps had been sprung and he had caught himself a ‘spotted demon’.  Carlos immediately questioned the demon’s intelligence as even as it was secured bound by ropes, it still attempted to eat the rations out of a backpack that was suspended at least 6 feet in the air.  To Carlos’ surprise he found that even while bound the demon had managed to eat over half of the rations!

Angry and hungry, Carlos leashed the demon to his side and dragged him back to the castle.  At the castle Carlos ordered the staff to slow roast the demon so that he could be enjoyed over a bed of rice.  Before being made the final ingredient, Queen Diana appeared and fell in love with this four legged, spotted and often confused looking beast of the dark realms.  After a ‘lively’ debate, the Queen left with the spotted demon who now enjoy status as her personal jester.

Carlos and Cyrus are in the early stages of a plan to handle this matter.
