Title: The Den OOC/Signup
Post by: KaneQuicktail on March 07, 2014, 02:55:35 AM
The Den, you've known it as your home since your birth. You grew up in the lower decks, knowing mostly the strife that plagues this underground city. The upper decks are home to The Administration, the shadowy leaders that control the flow of resources and power throughout all 19 decks. You don't know too much about the outside world, only that The Den is in the middle of the ocean and most of it is built from scrapped ships. The Den is over crowded and resources are becoming scarce.



The Slums, what you call home. Made from sunken ships of a world unknown, rust and ruin go hand-in-hand with the poverty that grips decks 19 through 10. These decks mostly survive off of the barter system, trading food and goods for other goods and services, doing what can be done to survive. These decks are also home to some of the wrecker bays, mighty submarines that venture into the pitch black sea to scavenge metal to build onto the ever-growing Den.


The Center, decks 9 through 5, the middle class and home of the Den Security. This is the point where most of the trickled down resources stop, per courtesy of the Security.


The Administration, decks 4 through 1. Not much is known about these decks, only rumor and myth surround it. The most well known rumor, though, is that the Admins are researching a way to produce an easily renewed source of food for the over populated Den. Most dismiss it as a pipe dream conjured by those that live in the Slums.


A revolution is taking place in The Den, the Black Paws are scratching and clawing their way into the Administration, vying for control of the Den. They've already discovered that the Admins' research labs are experimenting on the denizens, the Black Paws are not sure what they're doing, but people go missing every day.


Where do you fit in?


You've just been recommended to join the Black Paw, a contact has given you instruction to meet him at Deck 19's Pier 344 Warehouse. Even the lowest of the low, can rise to the top. Join the revolution!




Now the boring part, Rules:


1. Obviously, no god-modding. Ex. Instead of saying "I slash you" say "I attempt to slash you" or "I lunged at you, sword arcing at your chest"


2. Please please please do not be invulnerable. No one likes a dead character, but no one likes a character that can't get hurt either.


3. You don't start with any weapons, sorry. But it'll be very helpful if you list a combat ability in your skills (feel free not to though, your character can learn or be well-rounded)


4. Present day technology, no magic, no psionics please.




Please apply with the following info:

Ex:
Name: Nathaniel Bulkhead
Age: 32
Species: Snow Leopard
Brief Description: A 6' snow leopard, standard grey/black spots look, most everything about him is normal looking save for his dead left eye that he shamelessly displays to all. He was a wrecker navigator, but the disappearance of his sister compelled him to join the rebellion. He's the Black Paw's de facto recruiter, making sure that there's always a fresh batch of raw recruits. He oversees training and sometimes accompanies recurits on missions.
Major Skills: Leadership, Explosives, Sabotage




Looking to fill 4-7 slots. I'll accept multiple characters if we don't hit the minimum or you can convince me that you should have another (great character description basically). Post closing applications will be considered.


Also, I have a 3rd shift schedule, so I'll generally be posting between 5pm and 10:30pm CST Sunday - Friday and 5pm - 7am on Saturday.

Name: Mitch Neo Novime
Age: 16
Species: Wolf
Brief Description: Black furred (charcoal black) with deep green eyes, a scar on his shoulder (possibly from trying to escape in the past :3 ) and he would only be about 5 foot 5 inches tall. He was always picked on for being smaller than most, but he plans on rising the ranks when he can.
Major Skills (max 3): His own fighting style involving slashing and sword fighting. (he would use his claws or a loose pipe from a building.), above his clever nature he has a "silver" speech which allows him to be rather clever and smart in times of need and also convince others to do what he needs them too. On top of this hes also extremely smart, able to calculate a targets weak point by observing them fight

Haden, please don't bring in other characters without prior approval. I have a general idea in what direction I'm taking this in. Also, I'm waiting a while to allow for more people to join. If no one else joins then we'll carry on with just us.
Title: Re: The Den OOC/Signup
Post by: NautilusWolf on March 08, 2014, 12:53:38 AM
Noted, won't happen again.
Title: Re: The Den OOC/Signup
Post by: austinm67 on March 08, 2014, 04:50:37 AM
So, may i ask how long we will wait for people to join before we keep going with just me, you, and murph?
Title: Re: The Den OOC/Signup
Post by: KaneQuicktail on March 08, 2014, 04:55:18 AM
We'll start on Sunday if no one joins in
Title: Re: The Den OOC/Signup

Alright, Thats fine with me. Thank you for responding.

The two RP's I was doing sort of... died, and this one has promise, so I'll apply.


Name: Shadis


Age: 20


Species: Wolf


Description: Very dark grey fur with purple rune tattoos and dark blue eyes. A red scar over my left eye, which reduced my vision in that eye. A plain black trench coat with black pants adorns me. I have amnesia and can't remember anything over a few years ago. Having no friends or family, I've taken to sneaking and stealing to survive. Who ever I was before, I have some combat skills already. Longing for a purpose, I seek out the Black Paws.


Skills: Stealth via trial and error. Some skill with the blade. Some skill with firearms.

Welcome to the Black Paw, be sure to pick up your free pen and t-shirt

Heh, how kind  :P  Thank you, I'll begin posting  :)

Hey guys, sorry to say, but I'm not gonna be able to continue this. New job is kickin my butt and I wont be able to put in the full effort of GMing that I want to. So I'll turn it over to you guys, whoever wants to run it, go ahead. Otherwise just let it go. Sorry it didn't get a chance to get off the ground :/
Title: Re: The Den OOC/Signup
Post by: austinm67 on March 12, 2014, 03:29:45 PM
I could run it if you would like. Just pm me the generial plans you had for it and i can take it fromt here, maybe soemtime later on you could rejoin in.  ^_^

Does the Roleplay accept villain characters, so long as they are undercover?  Shadis knows who I'm thinking of.  ;)  >:3
Title: Re: The Den OOC/Signup
Post by: austinm67 on March 12, 2014, 07:35:21 PM
Well, if its up to kane that i become in charge, I would deffinitly be on board with an idea like that. It would add some flair and real challenge to the rp.
Title: Re: The Den OOC/Signup
Post by: NautilusWolf on March 13, 2014, 01:30:24 AM
Awesome! Double agent style! Sooooo, I guess Mitch is the new mod.
Title: Re: The Den OOC/Signup
Post by: Shadis on March 13, 2014, 02:49:23 AM
I'm down with austinm67 being in charge if he wants. Need a leader after all. Plus, if their was anything you wanted to have tweaked to your linking, you could do that now  :)  Also, I totally vouch for Aldrea. When she is a villain, you don't want her to capture you! We would do well to include her!  :3
Title: Re: The Den OOC/Signup
Post by: austinm67 on March 13, 2014, 04:54:19 AM
Okay, we need some good villians anyway. I guess we will continue when ever we can, just proceed as normal for now.
Title: Re: The Den OOC/Signup
Post by: Armalite_ on March 13, 2014, 06:18:23 PM
If you guys have room for one more, I'll take a stab at this. I haven't RP'd in about a year or 2 but I'll do my best to keep posting every night.

Name: Spike

Age: 22

Species: Coyote

Brief Description: Scruffy and battle-hardened, Spike stands at around 6' feet tall and usually wears whatever clothing he has that isn't tattered to pieces. After leaving military service with only the skills he'd picked up, he's got little in terms of money or friends. He's good willed and strong headed, a fighter and a good to have as backup for any occasion. He's normally quiet but talks alot when something's on his mind. He works in a small area of the upper decks as a tattoo artist trying to make a living with his ink and is self-employed.

Major Skills (max 3): Weapon maintenance/marksman, mechanical engineer, tattoo artist
Title: Re: The Den OOC/Signup
Post by: austinm67 on March 13, 2014, 07:31:29 PM
Go ahead, we have alot of room so only about 5-6 people now
Title: Re: The Den OOC/Signup
Post by: Aldrea945 on March 13, 2014, 08:51:51 PM
Thank you.  ^_^ I can't wait.

Name: Lucinda
Age: 25
Species: Wolf
Brief Description: Tall and curvy.  Long black fur down her back, shorter red fur in front.  Long bushy tail, soft ears, green eyes.  Prefers dresses and walks the streets at night.  Lucinda is very innocent looking, someone open and darling.  To most people, she's a perfect sweetheart.  Under those lashes though, she's perhaps not what she seems...
Major Skills (max 3): Lock picking, acting, and... inventive assassination.
Title: Re: The Den OOC/Signup
Post by: austinm67 on March 13, 2014, 10:25:48 PM
Okay well, let the rp continue  >:3
Title: Re: The Den OOC/Signup
Post by: Shadis on March 14, 2014, 04:10:02 AM
Goodness... I remember Lucinda...  @.@


Also, Spike_, wouldn't it be hard to give tattoo's to creatures covered in fur? Unless it's a sort of ink-based fur color distortion?
Title: Re: The Den OOC/Signup
Post by: NautilusWolf on March 14, 2014, 04:13:15 AM
I would think it were like a dye for fur, or something of the sort.
Title: Re: The Den OOC/Signup
Post by: Shadis on March 14, 2014, 04:19:19 AM
That's how my character has it. In a sense, anyway
Title: Re: The Den OOC/Signup
Post by: NautilusWolf on March 14, 2014, 04:41:38 AM
I think it's a cool idea in both methods.

As a tattoo artist I also have hot iron branding services too :P

*Cringes* I suppose that works too  X3

Post by: Aldrea945 on March 28, 2014, 02:10:04 AM
I really hate to say this guys, but I'm going to have to duck out.  Things just...  I find the RP hard to follow and can't stay reading.  Shadis can use Lucinda.  He knows her well.  :)  Sorry.
Title: Re: The Den OOC/Signup
Post by: Shadis on March 31, 2014, 05:21:48 AM
Sorry to hear that  :(  I'll do my best to control Lucinda. Feel free to regain control of her if you should ever wish to rejoin  :)


Post Merge: March 31, 2014, 05:29:49 AM
Also, things have... stalled. Let's have something more "action-y" happen soon, or I fear the RP may die on us  :/
Title: Re: The Den OOC/Signup
Post by: Aldrea945 on March 31, 2014, 03:15:56 PM
If you all wouldn't mind, I can jump in and try to shake things up.  Perhaps with an enemy raid, or an attack on the building.  I'm told I'm good at ****ing with characters.  ;) I'm not asking to take Lucinda back but for one post, just to keep it alive.
