Well, I'll have to write the lore you guys asked for first. I'll also wait for a few more players because I won't be accepting anyone after it starts. In a week maybe?

No, no no no. Start it on your own schedule. I'll find the time to post a little bit. Hell, I'm starting my own RP on Friday.

Yes. Make good, believable lore. Pay attention to the upper class too. :wink:

Because, no offense if you're reading this, what turned me off from POMC's roleplay was the huge lack of any story whatsoever.

I made some updates to the OP. Some more rebel NPCs and also a statement about your character. You are new and have never been on a mission before. That is all.

The RP will begin shortly. I don't have an exact date yet, but it will take no longer than a week.

Name:Jatharar Omaj
Gender:Male
Age:24
Speciality:Assassin
Appearance:Sinister and dastardly in appearance, Jatharar is most commonly found in a black and scarlet bodysuit. He appears very calm, and mostly quiet.
Bio:Jatharar had a very tedious and sometimes scattered and confusing childhood, working in the manufacturing plants on the lower layers of De.Z.Io.N., barely making ends meet for him and his father. His mother had died during childbirth, and his father has been grieving ever since. One day, young Jatharar was wandering the small town of which he lived, when he saw a particular piece of equipment that caught his eye. Being as poor as he was, he couldn't possibly afford this fine sample of upper-layer crafting. Knowing this, he returned later that night to steal the prototype armor skin from the pillar that it rested on. As he was leaving though, he was noticed by a guard, and immediately Jarathar made a b-line for the plant. He hid behind a panel near the entrance and waited for the guard to enter the narrow passageway into the plant. As the guard entered, he started to look near the entrance for any signs of Jarathar's presence. Jarathar started to become very anxious, worried that if he let this chase go on much longer that all would be lost. He finally decided to kill him, knowing he had no other choice. He snuck up on the guard and stabbed him in the back swiftly. He was shocked at his action, but could not resist the satisfaction he received from the kill. This soon led him into the assassinations of innocent commoners in the city, which in turn led him down the road of deception and private contracts for higher-layer nobles, eventually making a decent living for himself, one way or another.

Hope the bio isn't too long. I go crazy when it comes to stuff like this :| .

It's not too long, but there are some lore-unfriendly things.

Trench coats don't exist. It doesn't rain on De.Z.Io.N., and besides the only article of clothing that is produced are neoplast bodysuits. Mines also don't exist, since De.Z.Io.N. is made up entirely of metal. Hard labour in manoufactoring is more appropriate as a background. And finally, I'm afraid daggers don't exist either. The only type of weapon officially produced are the unnamed neuromanipulation guns that the U.N.A. uses. These guns are not distributed among humans. Read the OP over, modify your character and get back to me. If you have any questions, feel free to PM me.

I might try this one out, I presume your still taking characters? I'm going to be reading your OP and deciding on my character tonight :)

EDIT: Character:

Name: Z. or Zuedalus
Gender: Male
Age: Unknown, presumably 20's
Specialty: Assassin
Personality: Upon first contact - none, very quite. Eventually shows to be a very 'clear-cut' person, kind and with a sense of humor. Also has an idea that something is always wrong or right. If anything enters the grey area it is simply ignored until carefully calculated whether to be right or wrong. Whilst kind, shows a certain desire to continue his line of work.
Bio: Brought up right on the bottom rung of the ladder, he was showed brutal things at a young age. He was once betrayed by a friend, turning him into his turtle like self today, when playing hide and seek. After the betrayel he was taken away from everything and everyone he knew and forced into his now beloved profession. He carries a custom laser rifle, concealed inside a dark grey hooded but suit-like neoplast-latex suit.

Thats my first attempt, if anythings off/needs correcting i'll have a go :)

I can provide balancing NPCs if need be.

Are assassins considered a bad thing then? Or is it just the unbalance it is causing? And, thanks Mars :)

There's like 2 pilots, 1 engineer, 1 soldier, and 5 assassins, which creates a bit of unbalance, but its not a real problem.

I edited in something to Marilyn's bio in response to the humming.

Yeah, I made the soldier especially to try and balance the number a little bit, but it's not that much of a problem.

If you want to, you can, but if not that's fine. As I said, I can provide more balancing NPCs.

Attention!

I've written the starting post. I'm still waiting for Frosty's character. The RP will begin when I get confirmation on him.

A few final notes before the RP starts:

-If you're not sure about something you want to say or do, ask me first, so that we can avoid lore breaking posts. I realize that the information I've given is hardly enough, but writing everything down would take far too long and would be far too boring for me.

-You can do whatever the hell you want in this RP. You can refuse missions, carry out your own ends, create your own subplots. All that is welcome. Just don't turn this into your own personal story, remember to always interact with the others.

-New characters will be accepted after the RP starts. PM me if you wish to join.

EDIT:
I just saw that Frosty has edited his character. It looks good now.

Right, awaiting final questions. Ready to start whenever everyone else is.

Well it's really late here, so I can't start for about 10 hours when I wake up tomorrow, but from the looks of it, most people are in America where it's national sleepy time.
