The Dawn of a New Age OOC Thread

[Sarzum]

(Short Info)

I was watching some movies, series and games when I got this idea for an RP.

This roleplay is in the not so distant future (well if you call 200 years not so distant) and mankind has finally managed to put away all their differences and live side by side. After the third worldwar that started in 2089 and finally ended in 2110 all nations looked a tthe destruction the war brought and started rebuilding promising a better future for the next generations. After almost 90 years of rebuilding all nations agreed to form a single nation called the World Nations Alliance (WNA). The year is 2199, the 15th december as every newscast around the globe announces the birth of a new age begins january 1st 2200 when the the first president of the WNA takes office.

But when the new age starts it's not peace that is in all the hearts of humankind, it's fear. They didn't came from this solarsystem and invaded while the whole world was about to enter a new age of peace.

At the dawn of a new age the first act of the WNA is not one of peace it is one of war and the stakes of this war?

The survival of every man, woman and child of Earth...

Plot

Well you've read it we thought we were finally getting some peace and quiet but no some aliens decided to have some fun and invade our nice little planet, exterminating all humanlife as they go.

Your character will be a soldier in a squad who are part of the WNA Global Defense Force which were actually intended to be used against terrorists but are now send against the alien scum since terrorists aren't really on the top of the list of threats anymore.
Only problem is that at the start when the WNA was announced most of the militairy of every nation were dismantled to assure that no warlord or rogue militairy officer could be a threat to the WNA. So the first and only line of defense Earth has against the alien invaders are the men and woman of the WNA Global Defense Force and the daily recruits they are getting from the population every day since the aliens invaded.

Pick up your weapon, defend your home and kick those aliens back from where they came from. But also find out why the aliens decided to attack Earth at it's strongest and not during the great war as most of Earth was lying in ruins and much easier to take.

Some Rules

1- No one-liners please, everybody hate those
2- I don't mind your characters saying some swearwords (Shit, Crap, Fuck, Holy Mother of Jehozevath, etc) but don't do it too much.
3- no godmodding
4- use common sense
5- intimacy is allowed but remember we are fighting a war out there
6- be aware of the flow of time (example: severe wounds can't heal in a day)
7- wait for acceptance before you post in the IC thread

Character Sheet

Name:
Gender:
Age:
Rank: (depends on how much people join but so far 1 squad with me as squadleader and 1 second in command, the rest are just troopers)
Appearence: (appearance of your character when he/she is in the barracks in combat your either wearing a dropsuit or this)
Personality:
Bio: (Short background, what was your character doing before the war, was he/she always a member of the GDF or something else?)
Equipment: like weapons, special gear and suit of DropSuit

Extra info on the equipment
The soldiers of the GDF are brought towards their destination by landbased vehicles or they are launched from the sky out of planes and to survive such a drop you have a special suit of armour which kinda looks like this but you have to choose which suit you take with you:

Juggernout: Rocketlauncher on the right arm and flamethrower on the left arm. Slow movement and slow to turn but your like a walking fortress and hard to be destroyed.

Assault: Machinegun on the right arm and grenadelauncher on the left arm. Medium movement and medium protection.

Recon: Scout suit with submachine gun on the right arm and shotgun on the left arm. Fastest movement but lowest protection.

Note: the DropSuits are used to secure a landing zone and only have enough power for a short time, primaly used to secure an area and then move on without the suits.

Special Gear:

With special gear you have to think of grenades (flash, stun, sound, schrapnel, etc) mines, medkit, radar jammer, etc. If you have something you want as special gear be free to add it, but give a explanation what it does and I will see if it's good to use (no mini atomic bombs or annything like that)

You can choose 2 weapons for your character and the choices are these

As for the aliens taht are attacking us? Well I'm not going to reveal any information of them just now.

Okay I'm just going to post this, maybe add some extra information later when i see the need to. Feel free to ask me questions, give suggestiong annything else you want to add please do.

[Free Faller]

Name: Sydney Kent
Gender: Female
Age:24
Rank: Trooper (specializing in sniping)
Appearence: Syd is tall, standing at about 5'10, with a lithe frame. Her hair is a light brown and her keen eyes are the golden green of spring grass. Her facial features are soft and her cheeks are usually creased with small dimples. Her movements are nimble, fast, and quiet and she is notorious for popping up behind people from seemingly nowhere. While in the barracks she wears urban camoflauge cargo pants and a plain white t-shirt.
Personality: Kent is quick-witted and humorous. She loves using dry sarcasm which sometimes makes it hard to tell whether she’s being serious or not, but usually it's the latter. Syd's fairly hard to anger and will, most of the time, just remain quiet and let herself simmer when mad and take it out on the enemy. If, for some reason, anyone happen to really irk her she'll go after them directly (which usually ends with her giving either a verbal or physical whooping depending on the offense). She tries to keep everyone in high spirits though, and is one of the best people around to have your back (both as a soldier and friend). She has also been known to pull a few good-natured pranks now and again.
Bio: Sydney was born in a little town in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. She, like many people in the Up, was an avid outdoorsman (err, woman... whatever) even when she was jest knee-high. Her favorite thing to do was go hunting with her father and older brother and she quickly became quite the shot. When she was older she went to shooting competitions where she always placed high. After high school she got scholarships offers from a few nice universities for her marksmanship but declined them after getting an offer to join the WNA Global Defense Force's sniper school. She's been serving ever since her graduation a year later.
Equipment-
Weapons: CMP-600A3 "Angel of Death" Sniper Pistol and a CM5MG-6B "Silent Doom" Submachinegun.
Special Gear: Radar Jammer, laser trip claymores, stun and frag grenades (2 of each), thermal/nightvision binoculars, rations, 9" combat knife, light gillie suit (fits over standard armor).
Dropsuit: Recon

Welcome to the RP and thanks for joining but I've got some bad new I got a rather bad case of the flu so ill be offline for a while hope you are willing to wait (hopefully I'll be back in one day but perhaps longer).

[Ying]

Oh holy shit. Can I please play an Alien commander? xD

[Sarzum]

K I'm back, damn it's good to be in full health again! I'll leave this thread open for joining for 1 or 2 days and then I'll post an IC.

Oh holy shit. Can I please play an Alien commander? xD

Sure Ying why not, I was thinking of creating my own alien race but if you want to be an alien commander then you may (if you want to) create the alien race on your own.

[Earthy Greendragon]

Name: Theo Bosline (Boz)

Gender: Female

Age: 27

Rank: trooper (Berzerker/Heavy weight)

Appearence: Boz stands roughly 5"8 and has blond hair and dark blue eyes. She also has a tattoo over her heart. When in the Barracks she usually will just wear anything comfortable, preferring boots and t-shirts. She won't wear white shirts though, says they make her to visible, instead she wears colored shirts with odd (and usually vibrant) sayings or pictures.

Personality: Boz can be quiet when she wants to be but is generally loud and rough around the edges. She has a nasty habit of rubbing people the wrong way, especially those who aren't in the GDF. Even through all that she can prove herself invaluable by holding lines through sheer will and getting the job done. Dependable and tough as nails she'll go the extra mile and then some just for her mates.

Bio: Boz has always been in the military, and as soon as she could the GDF. She couldn't find a place in society any where else. Though it's not all that surprising because her whole family has a long military history, with everything from aviators to marines. She is also the youngest of four.

The reason she goes by Boz instead of something else is because when she was in training to join the GDF her head on, power punch tactics earned her the nick name Berzerker Boz. Needless to say the name stuck.

Equipment:Juggernaut Drop suit
CMGL-422A3 "Fat Man" Grenade Launcher
CMSG-351A2 "Storm Maker" Shotgun.
Extra ammunition
8" combat knife
Shrapnel grenades
Flash Grenades
Light medkit
