Yet another RPG proposal that I pray won't die prematurely as many others of mine have...
OK,
annnnnnnnnnnd we're off!!!
Setting: An average suburb near a fair sized city. The weather here is average, the population, the crime rate, every thing is average. This is not significant to the story, only the setting. Oh, and it's the beginning of summer.
Story line: We’re talking mainly teenagers and college students here, but any age is cool. The story line is up to those who play and how their characters react to each other. However, this may turn some of you away, there is no magic. No fantasy sort of stuff. This is an attempt to mimic real life, but a little more idealistically. Think Dawson’s Creek or Gilmore Girls, in the aspect that those sorts of things are “too coincidental and dramatic to
really happen.â€

Gender: Male
Age: 17
Ht/Wt: 5'7", 153 lbs

Name: Adam Von
Gender: Male
Age: Nineteen
Ht/Wt: 5'8"/136
Appearance: <In Pic>
Personality: Jason is the out going type. Always willing to listen or talk and lend a helping hand in school activities.
Background: Dispite Jason's totally upbeat attitude, his life absolutly sucks in the worst way for a highschool student with so much potential. When Jason was three, he was diagnosed with a minor brain tumor. With such a young person, the doctors didn't give Jason much longer to live but he beat the odds and is still living today. Unfortuantly, the tumor kept growing with his body and still is. His parents where so grief stricken that they swore of having another child and in turn, neglected Jason. His dad developed a terrible drinking problem and his mom . . . well she'll never be the same. Anyway, Jason had to strive to keep up with the rest of the class. But where he failed acedemically, he excelled in sports. Football, Basketball, Volleyball, Tennis, Soccer, Baseball, Track, Cross Country, he did it all. The worst part is, nobody even knows about the tumor. His parents are so ashamed of what they created, they havn't told anyone, not even their own immediate family members. Jason knows. And he doesn't see any reason to enligten anyone.
Additional info: Dispite his small size, Jason is a force to be reakoned with on the field. Anyone dumb enough to challenge him learns what years of gamming can do to a person. He's got soft spot for animals. His best memories are going to the zoo and accidently getting into the gorilla cage and not being found for three hours.
