In the rain...

[raider~joseph]

(Rocklobster told me about these this seems easy so I wanna make one of my own so I read a few and I can't say I feel ok with joining one that has already started)

It was years ago strange sightings of odd creatures started to pop up on the internet as usual the many insane people said: It’s all a lie man! The government has lied to you these things are gonna make the rain."The rain is a term used now to say the end of the world first it was the creature then it was the floods then finally it started to rain. It never stopped worse people are dying all over cities are flooding. A man says that dry land is still here that has right dry land exists in the artic.People call him insane but some will follow. The new government of the world UNITY says they are going to make a city in the sky and wants no one to panic. Then again it’s been raining for 8 years straight. You choose will you follow the mystery man or will you protect High ground from whatever may threaten it.

This RPG takes place in a place called High Ground somewhere in Asia and this is the character sheet.

[SeraphicCharm]

ooh, ooh, i wanna join! great plot theme! (heehee, this is my first time RPGing! we'll see how this goes!)

name: Angel Morendo
age: 16
gender: female
particular skills: she has the ability to sense the thoughts of others, although she doesn't like to says what they are
combat skills: she doesn't know a lot, but she has been educated in the way of the sword.
weapons: she always carries a small knife with her, and she owns two small swords (about 4 ft. long and weighing about 10 lbs. each) which she always practices with.
clothing: long black flare-type pants and a black short-sleeved shirt with white angel wings on the back. she also wears a double-sheath harness that crosses in the back for her swords.
bio: Living in a village in one of the nearby valleys, Angel's home was one of the first to be flooded out. In that first flood, both her parents were killed and she has no other family to go to. Now left on her own, she's very confused about what to do next. She knows for sure that she doesn't trust the new government and all that they promise, but she is torn between staying on the High Ground or going to the Arctic. For now, she just wanders through the surrounding lands until they get flooded out.

[raider~joseph]

Your character is psychic...nice.I like your character design and how it includes swords I didn't think anyone would use swords.

[Davidizer13]

two small swords (about 4 ft. long and weighing about 10 lbs. each)

*ahem* Even the largest swords ever made, 6-ft. long 16th-century greatswords, weighed no more than 8 pounds on average. A sword as long and as heavy as yours is would be 3/8ths of an inch thick - not quite sword-thickness. Realistically: you try swinging around two 10 lb. bars for a couple hours. Swords were not as heavy as people think they were.

Anyway...Here's my character.

Name: Anton Silvina
Age: 30
Gender: Male
Ethnicity: American/Caucasian, with an Italian ancestry.
Particular skills: Born lucky. He has a good, logical head on his shoulders, and good things result through his use of it. Just a few days before the rain started, he had received a degree in civil engineering. How convenient for a world where life is dependent on eliminating extra water. The rainy years have given him lots of practical experience in his field. It's also given him a devil-may-care attitude: whatever happens, he's happy with that, and if there's a problem, he'll just throw himself at it until it's solved.
Combat skills: Rudimentary self defense training, though if he runs into someone who knows what he's doing, he's toast. So he cheats. He uses a gun...
Weapons: This gun. A big one. An experimental military shotgun, with four revolving barrels, lifted from a Chinese research base after the evacuation order. Like a redneck Gatling gun.
Clothing: A dark blue coverall, spattered in mud, rubber boots, and a backpack full of supplies. Has dark brown hair, cut short, and brown eyes. About 5'8", 175 lbs.
Bio: He's spent the last few years helping build up the High Ground - the former Tibetian Plateau - into a massive staging site for humanity's next plan: the UNITY sky city. He might not agree with everything UNITY's done in the aftermath of the rain, and the sky city sounds pretty crazy, but it's not like anyone else has a better plan. So when they're ready to start work on it, he'll be there.

Looks interesting.

name:Johann van Reine

weapons:His computer.
clothing:An eccentric fellow, Johann wearing rounded glasses, brown trousers, and a lab coat. He is roughly over 6 feet in height with lightly tan skin, green eyes, and long light brown hair he keeps tied in a low ponytail.

gender:female
ethnic:Chocktaw/ Native American
particular skills:Chenoa has skills with medicines and healing. Besides that, she is also a fairly accomplished archer.
combat skills:Great reflexes and skill with a bow.
weapons:Medicine bag and bow and arrow.
clothing:Like her husband, Chenoa is also peculiar in dress and appearance. Keeping largely to her culture, she has long black hair with traditional beading in the front and leather, decorated headband. She generally wears an Indian woman's dress, but will settle for blues jeans, tank, and deer skin vest. With her she carries small weapons and herbs in a medicine bag. Chenoa stands at a few inches past five feet with dark brown eyes and redden skin.
bio:The Native American reservations were some of the first places that flooded in America. Hearing of the High Lands, Chenoa and her tribe traveled to Japan that resulted in the almost utter eniliation of her people. Once in Japan, she meet Johann at a UNITY camp for non-Asian foreigners coming to live in the country. The two became instant friends and helped each other learn the language. They married roughly a year and a half prior and live in hiding of the government.

I am sorry but i should let you all know the only place that isn't ocean around high ground is called Ruin a jungle that connects to the flooded earth it is full of dangerous plants and animals and worse to get there you either have to be in the UNITY search army or have to have sneaked out even still its always raining at the end of the jungle is a body of water that starts the begining of the rest of the flooded world.Simply put this is the only way in and out there is no other area outside of High Ground to explore in High Ground there are 5 cities:Twilight the hub city for most of the rebels various bases they have the least crime enforcement.
Cage:the prisons the worst of the worst charlie manson types live here the only thing rebels agree with UNITY on is the people they chose to put in the jail deserve it.

[Strafe]

Ooh... I like end of the world RPs... And so I will resurrect the character I have beaten to death in my end of the world fic (The world ended, and everyone died a meaningless death tragically), but still can't get enough of, The schizophrenic, multiple personality homeless anarchist murderer, Santa Claus, and his wayward mute "daughter", Shizuka. They appear here:

http://www.christiananime.net/showthread.php?t=53503&highlight=~Memento+Mori-
Beware though, I get really busy very quickly so I may pop in and out.


name: Either Nicholas or Santa Claus. Doesn't really matter since he doesn't have a name anyways.

age: Maybe 30, maybe 40, something in between?

gender: Male

ethnic: Caucasian, with blue eyes and snow white hair. Understand that he is not fat, and looks nothing like Santa Claus in actuality. He is actually a rather attractive man.

particular skills: None. Capabilities of a regular man?

combat skills: Nothing special.

weapons: Whatever he can pick up. It varies, since he seems to carry guns alot, but is not limited to anything.

clothing: Business suits. Always business suits. Always a red santa hat too.

bio: Nicholas is nearly impossible to accurately describe in a paragraph. His character is so twisted, that I don't quite understand it myself. I guess the best way to put it is that Nicholas is the incarnation of pure evil in the guise of an extremely kind man. He has multiple personalities that pop up, but both are ruthlessly murderous. Nicholas doesn't quite seem aware that he even exists, and doesn't move according to thought. It is debatable whether or not he thinks. He has no memories, and sort of just exists. He may or may not be immortal, as he has "died" numerous times. It should be noted that one of Nicholas' personalities is that of a very kind man who kills people while having the innocent smile of an angel. His other personality is a purely ruthless lack of thought mass murderer. The only thing that may or may not make him human is his connection to his self-proclaimed "daughter" Shizuka.


name: Shizuka Otonashi (It's a rather dumb pun, I know.)

age: 12

gender: Female

ethnic: Japanese- Black Hair with chestnut highlights, tied in a bow. Brown eyes. Short, thin.

particular skills: Seems to be very intelligent.

combat skills: None.

weapons: None.

clothing: A school uniform, even though she does not go to school.

bio: Shizuka is a mute, but bright and cheerful girl, who regards the killer known as Nicholas as her real father, caring for him very much, turning a blind eye to his crimes for some reason. Her story is very tragic, and will be alluded to in the RP.

As it is, they'll jump in, and we'll see what happens. hehe...

[raider~joseph]

In theory this could be one of the BEST characters i have seen only kill npcs though with the exception of winters and otis....i leave you to it.(i need those 2 npcs storyline purposes.)

[Strafe]

Lol. Thanks. I'll work hard to try and make the theory work out then.
