The South of Town [OOC/Sign Up/Rules/Lore]
« on: May 19, 2017, 01:27:06 AM »
Hiya!
This will be the first role play post that I have created, so I hope this doesn't die out too soon. Character sheets can be posted below, along with questions and whatnot.


Lore
The year is set in the late 2030's, when the government began experimenting on humans once more for military purposes. The previous attempts failed terribly. This time, however, they tried to mix the DNA of humans and animals to make the 'perfect' batch of soldiers. Did it work? Yes. They would be called triflepaws.


Anthropomorphic beings were ready for the front-lines, but they never made it. Many humans protested against the use of animals for the sake of their military, causing the government to shut down the whole program. The humanized animals were allowed by the government to live in regular human society, but at the expense of their reputation. They were thought of as beasts, and were constantly discriminated. In modern slang, they were referred to as 'furs'.


They had trouble finding jobs and good housing. There was a city, however, called The Shield-neck. It was in the northern part of the country. The South region of the area was where the most crime happened, usually between triflepaws. Because this area wasn't managed as better as the other regions were, triflepaws found it easy to find housing and jobs here. Poorly managed apartment buildings were what many triflepaws called home, despite the streets being littered with gangs.


Rules
1. You may only have one character, to keep the group small. About 8 applicants will be selected for the first chapter. NPC's may be controlled, within reason, but I may control some of the ones you interact with.
2. Be friendly, and do not godmod.
3. This post is strictly OOC only. All participants will be informed when the IC sheet is up.


Affiliations
Citizen- You live in The Shield-neck as a normal, law-abiding citizen. In the South or in a different region, you co-exist with the triflepaws. If you're a human, you live a much easier life. As a triflepaw, you face discrimination on a daily basis by humans, and should avoid joining or being near criminal activity...the government looks for any reason to lock you up and get rid of you.


Criminal- You live the life of a criminal. Crime is what you live for! You can either be involved in a gang, reside in prison, or look for trouble on a day to day basis, avoiding law enforcement. Some triflepaws in the South are involved in gangs, and usually look to bother humans that wander their way. Some reside in buildings that are poorly managed, sometimes reeking of drug labs. Usually gangs are filled with triflepaws and humans, but humans tend to be on lower ranks while triflepaws are on top.


The Law- You are the law. You patrol the streets looking to capture criminals that happen to come your way. As a human, the government has informed you that you will always have more control over triflepaws, no matter what rank you are. You are to keep them in check. As a triflepaw, you are treated lower than recruits, and are stuck with the lowest of tasks. This usually involves cleaning the toilets after lunch breaks. You have to work extra hard so you can have the privilege of patrol duty.

You have to realize the reason for war, love and peace. They are all used to attain power in the society. To keep our filthy race alive a few more generations. Love is just another hormone to keep your line of tainted blood going.

I think I might give this a shot. Which faction would be more conductive to the rp? Civilian, criminal or law?

Most likely the law. Being that the area where most Triflepaws are living, lots of crime happens. Later on in this RP, an incident will occur where the law enforcement will be needed the most.

Character Sheet
Name: Rioko
Age: 27
Species: trifflepaw Lizard
Physical description: It's hard to say exactly what kind of reptile Rioko is. More raptor than anything else with digitgrade legs and a bit of a slouch to her stance, she is a tall trifflepaw with enough weight to her frame that her yellow underbelly scales are starting to split. The rest of her hide is composed of soft red scales.
Traits: Fat, tall, markswoman.
Personality: gluttonous, lazy, short tempered.
Overall short summary of character's background: Rioko is a bit of an odd duck. She was genetically altered with jungle combat in mind. The aim was to make something as close to a Deinonychus as possible, what holiwood commonally gets confused as a velociraptor (something she takes as an annoyance). It took years of tweaking various animal DNA to make an animal fast, strong and then teach her how to use a sniper rifle. All in all Rioko was ready to become a lean, mean killing machine.

Then a day before her first deployment the war ended. Rioko was let go from the army with  out ever getting to maul single person. She did not acclimate well to civilian life, not when her major job quality is biting people's heads off. Not wanting to turn to a life of crime Rioko joined law enforcement instead, thinking her skills as a soldier would find some use there. Several years later Rioko has gone on patrol only a hand full of times. The rest of her days are spent behind a desk, watching her waist and rump grow wider as she stews in a never ending supply of paperwork to file.

Weapons: None. Not since the ' incedent '.

Name: Holly Sato
Age: 23
Species : Triflepaw (Fennec Fox)
Physical description: Cream skin and fur on head, hands and legs. Well built. Short with large ears.
Traits: Slow and calculative. Smart. Fidgety.
Personality: Cunning and calculative. Friendly and hard working.
Overall short summary of character's background: Turned onto the streets after an accident with some Triflepaws. As a child on the streets she dreamed of being in law enforcement like she used to play with her sister : Kai Sato. Eventually she was taken in for some intense patrols and paper work.
Weapons (Optional. Law enforcement and criminals have these, within reason, but usually citizens do not): A small elegant katar

If anything, we can start now, if you'd like.
You can add a second character if you want, but be sure to post their character sheet for future reference.
