Looks good I'll probably join this.

[VirtualWeasel]

We're going to say that you can't have negative skill values, kay?
Because there's no point in basically mentally handicapping your character... No skill is a dump skill.

[Velvet LeChance]

So do the values of the negative skills stay as zero or do I have to put points in to them until they hit 0 ?

[Frost Mage]

I support 'ery thing to do with 'Merica. Sign me up.

[Goldbrand]

So do the values of the negative skills stay as zero or do I have to put points in to them until they hit 0 ?

They'll just stay at zero. Just never try to use those skills, or you'll blow up.

Cardie, me and Weasel talked about this last night, and agreed that it should really have skill points make in 0, otherwise things end up being dump skills.

[Velvet LeChance]

Edited my Original post so no skills fall below zero.

[AddictedtoMorrowind]

I'm gonna reserve so I can laugh at America's destruction.

[Frost Mage]

I support 'ery thing to do with 'Merica. Sign me up.

Frosty! You have a spot reserved, then. Make a sheet, if you would.

I will tomorrow, not enough time right now.

[AddictedtoMorrowind]

K, no reservation.

[Goldbrand]

Please don't flay our members. you'll excite him...

In other news, my Character Sheet:

Spoiler:

Name:Acaelus Stern
Age:32
Sex:Male
Sexuality:Straight

Friends or family:Acaelus' father is all the family he has left.

Appearance: Rugged, quite tanned complexion, with the occasional scar. Acaelus has short, black hair, and the beginings of a small goatee. His eyes are a dark shade of blue, and are constantly flicking around the place, taking everthing in. He has an athletic, toned body, but it is quite obviously for agility and stability than brute strength. He stands at exactly 6 foot tall.

Biography:Acaelus comes from a long line of hunters and survivalists. The values of determination, calmness, and self discipline run strong in him. At a very young age, like all of his family before him, he showed an exceptional aptitude with the tools of the trade: stealth, long-range weaponry, and survival skills. It wasn't long before he was inducted into the settlement's Scout unit, and went out into the darkness of the outer reaches of Alexandria on a few occasions.
His success in every mission, and discovery of more land within the caves gave him a certain respect and trust from the higher society of Alexandria, and with this he gained the title of Scout Master. Since then, Acaelus has been on few missions, the higher powers keeping him back, telling him he is now too important as a training instructor and mentor for the "expendable" lower scouts. He wanted to go on the first trip to the surface, but was forbidden it; it came as little surprise to him that no scout returned. Acaelus is now rather cynical of his position, and finds himself disliking the upper classes of Alexandria more and more with each death of another of his tutees.

Personality: Acaelus is a Cynic, and doesn't truly revere anyone or anything. He is very seldom impressed by things, especially people and their claims. He is a man of proving, not talking. To those he dislikes, he is ruthless, damning, and cold. To those in his favour, he is concerned, humourous, and helpful.

"Man's best friend". Through think and thin, your gun has been there for you. You are better at using this named gun, but worse with all others.

"Martial Artist" You've studied the martial hand-to-hand and close-quarters techniques of the far east.

[Nova]

Okay, I am going to make an Australian sniper! Actually, no, I play a Polish person the best

[Nova]

I am fed up with Sarrina. I know she will die pretty soonish.

[Nova]

No, it happened in Tyranny 1 and in Umbra. I'm not going to trust you lot with my Sarrinas...

[Unionhack]

Here's my sheet. As I told Cardy, I might drop out from time to time.

Spoiler:

Name: Alistair Eastwood
Age: 21
Sex: M
Sexuality: Hetero
Friends or family: Gerhalt Eastwood (Father, 43), Claire Eastwood (Mother, 41)
Appearance: Long, brown hair and vivid blue eyes. Stands at 5'9" and weighs 150 lbs. Is of an average-to-lean build. Alistair is of British descent, thus Caucasian. Has brown stubble with a bit of a goatee in the process of growing. Here's an image:

Biography: Alistair was born a rebel. He was less than a year old when he began trying to escape his crib, and as a child he was always finding ways to get into trouble just for the fun of it or just kicking back and ignoring what he was told to do. Though he loved his parents greatly, they were often forced to punish him due to his nature. Despite this, he still found ways to escape his obligations and punishments, preferring to be laid back. One of his favorite past times was shooting; his father had some handguns that he was allowed to practice with. He soon found that one gun just wasn't enough, so he learned how to shoot two at once without losing accuracy.
At 15, he learned to play the bass guitar and took it up as a second past-time. By 16, he had set a personal goal of learning how to play as many instruments as he possibly could; a difficult task in the underground city, where finding instruments was a great challenge. By 19, however, he had a good deal of control over the bass, the trombone, the harmonica, and the saxophone. He spent his time in the city as an entertainer, but kept up his practicing with his father's guns as a past-time and as preparation for if anything were to go wrong.
Even with his past-times, he still continued to be a menace to authority figures. He felt confined in the city, and constantly looked for a way out of the dreary, repetitive life.
Personality: Alistair is a spontaneous idealist, who does things on a whim according to his feelings and personal beliefs. He holds his own ideals close to his heart as the most important facet of his mentality. He likes taking time to chill out and relax, but is always content to be up-and-moving and doing something. When he is committed to something he loves, he will do anything to continue doing it, and will let nothing impede his activity.
Alistair believes the people of America brought their fate upon themselves, and openly mocks their decisions. He takes a very 'stick-it-to-the-man' attitude to governmental bodies.
Alistair believes in letting people choose their own lot in life. He is compassionate and cares about others, as long as they're good natured and not oppressive. He is best described as 'Chaotic Good'.
Weapons: 2 Smith and Wesson Revolvers named 'Star' (Right) and 'Fang' (Left). They are lined with silver and black leather, and are in amazing condition. Star and Fang have been in Alistair's family for generations, and though many parts have been replaced over the years to the point where very few original parts of the guns are still present, the guns still perform excellently; better than modern revolvers. It's an old Eastwood myth that the guns are possessed.
Armour: Wears a bullet-proof vest under a leather trench-coat. Wears blue jeans and a trusty pair of black, steel-toed boots. Also possesses a pair of Aviator Sunglasses.
Attributes:
S(trength) 4
E(ndurance) 4
P(ersonality) 7
I(ntelligence) 6
A(gility) 9

[Unionhack]

Got it. Going edit those too.

[Goldbrand]

Okay, I can see this whole trait thing and skills below 0 is going to be a problem, so we'll allow negative figures from traits only. I will be checking, and if you try and use that skill, you will spontaneously combust. Velvet, that means you can revert back to your old'n if you like.

[Velvet LeChance]

12th is the night I will be getting my exam results, I definitely will not be able to Rp that night. I'm also going to my friends party that Friday night, so you will have to start without me.

[Unionhack]

Looking forward to it. Hope more people join up too.

[Frost Mage]

Should I make a point to read all the character sheets?

[Goldbrand]

Should I make a point to read all the character sheets?

They include both mine and Cardie's, which are plot characters, so it might be an idea, and it gets you familiar with what you're working with.

We've got a helluva lot of Revolver users....

[Unionhack]

Oh, and Cardy? It's spelled 'Alistair'. xD
