    Reimagining of Evangelion (OOC)

    Link to the IC



    Welcome to the world of Evangelion. It hardly needs any introduction. Human drama and battles against mysterious beings called "Angels" are only the tip of the iceberg what's to be found. Battles will be fought, children will learn what the world of adults is all about and they will grow up themselves all the while trying to save a world that has already seen a catastrophe take the lives of millions of people not so long ago.




    On September 13th, 2000, a global cataclysm known as "Second Impact" occurred. A massive explosion in Antartica melted the polar cap and even altered Earth's axis. Massive tsunamis and an unprecedented increase in global sea levels flooded most cities on the coast. The whole event caused a catastrophic shift in global weather patterns, and to give an example, Japan lives in a practically eternal summertime, although ecosystems are slowly trying to go back to normality. According to the official report issued by the United Nations, the explosion was caused by a meteorite impact, but it may not all be as they made the citizens believe...

    In the meantime, 15 years have passed and NERV was set up as a paramilitary special agency under direct control of the United Nations with the purpose of protecting mankind against the Angels. These mysterious beings, of unknown origin, threaten people but most importantly, could cause a Third Impact, which could end life on Earth. Again, things may not exactly work out as official reports on the matter state, and NERV may have its own agenda regarding mankind, the Angels and everything else. Their HQ is located directly under Tokyo-3, in the subterranean GeoFront.

    NERV has been in charge of developing the Evangelions, all-purpose mechanical weapons which have the main mission of protecting mankind. But these weapons are to be piloted by certain children that are chosen by an institute that is associated with NERV. These children are always born after the Second Impact and born within 2001. These children gather at NERV HQ at Japan, where the story will start.






    Player characters:

    - Yuichi Béarn Kaiten (雄 ベアルン 回天) - First Child
    - Alexandra Garrett (アレックサンドラ ガレット) - Third Child
    - Noah Leigh (ノアリー ) - Fourth Child

    - Doctor Amatus Ephidel (アマッタズ・エフィッデル)
    - Doctor Takahashi Mimi (高橋 美美)



    - General rules of the site are applied here.
    - We are using the original Evangelion series (not Rebuild) as the baseline.
    - The characters will go through extreme situations. While cussing is to be expected to a certain degree, it should not get TOO far.
    - This RP is about human drama. Intimate relationships MAY happen, particularly between the older members of NERV. Keep it realistic. Children who are 13/14 years old going to bed with older members is definitely not your everyday event. Either way, this is not a RP about intimate relationships, so they should never become the focus. And most of all, they should not be roleplayed, and only hinted at. This is happening at NERV HQ at Japan; and public displays of affection between couples are frowned upon. While kissing may be roleplayed, what anyone does inside their bedrooms is private.
    - As of the beginning of the action, a maximum of 4 pilots will be selected. Two of them will have operative Evangelion units, while a third pilot will have a unit being close to completed and a fourth will start by serving as a back up.
    - if you want to know the initial discussions that lead to the RP being started, check this thread. It gives good insight to what is expected from both storyline and players.
    - Rejected pilot characters can be cast as students at the local school, if you so wish. This will put them in a nice position for when the 5th spot opens up, and just in case one of the original 4 leaves the RP (hope not!). But for the time being, they would have to be merely minor characters at school. The decision is entirely up to the character's "owner".

    How does he/she dress?
    • He is usually seen wearing regular jeans, a button down shirt, and usually some sort of jacket or hoodie.
    Health: Jin keeps himself in a slightly fit condition. He tends to eat healthily, and exercises every so often to keep himself from getting overweight, but he always seems to have some minor injuries due to his delinquent like nature.

    PERSONALITY
    Mannerisms:
    • Jin has developed a very aggressive and standoffish personality due to his past. He tends to push people away by acting in such a way.

    Disabilities: None

    Intelligence Level: Above average, but he doesn't do much to show it

    Any Mental Illnesses? Nothing as of yet

    Character's short-term goals in life: To get through school and learn to live on his own.

    Character's long-term goals in life: To take care of his own life and have a family to take care of. He believes that by having a family of his one, he'll have fulfilled what his sister had intended to do, raise a proper family.

    How does Character see himself/herself? He sees himself as a lone wolf type of character. He fights and keeps himself away from others so he doesn't get attached to anyone else.

    How does Character believe he/she is perceived by others? He believes that other people either see him as the same lone wolf type that he envisions himself as, or that he's just an asshole that acts like a dick to almost everyone he meets. Either way, he honestly doesn't care as he only wants to take care of himself and doesn't give much thought as to how other people view him.

    How self-confident is the character? He is very self confident. He believes that with his tough life, he has grown into a strong willed man, and doesn't hesitate to back down from anyone or anything. He believes that the only thing that will stop him from doing something is his desire to do it.

    What would most embarrass this character? Someone managing to breakdown his self implemented walls only to betray him for whatever purpose. He believes he's self sufficient and doesn't need anyone else, so not only being proven wrong there but being betrayed ontop of it would make him feel terrible.

    Strengths/Weaknesses:
    •Strengths: Jin is a capable fighter as his attitude has pissed off many people, so he had to learn how to defend himself. He also is decently smart if he applies himself.
    •Weaknesses: He doesn't get along with people well, so having to work together with others is probably when he's at his weakest.

    Introvert or Extrovert? Introvert (by choice?)

    What does the character want out of life? To become strong enough to have a family of his own and take care of them like his parents never did.

    What would the character like to change in his/her life? His issue of self reliance. He wants to rely on others, but his deep rooted distrust of other people prevents that.

    What motivates this character? He wants to be the one in control of his life. He doesn't want to let anyone else decide what he has to do.

    What frightens this character? Being in a situation where the only thing he can do is let someone else decide his fate.

    What makes this character happy? Fighting, he can just let go of his problems and be in the adrenaline laced bliss of fighting.

    Is the character judgmental of others? Yes, he believes everyone will only let him down or leave him in the end.

    Is the character generous or stingy? Stingy

    Is the character generally polite or rude? Rude, coming back to his lone wolf attitude to push others away.

    Personality: As stated earlier, he is a lone wolf type of person. He tends to push others away either by acting rude or distant, and likes nothing more than to be handling things on his own. Basically, he's alone by choice, and does whatever he can to make sure that he can sustain his life style by himself without anyone else's assistance or interference as he would see it.

    HISTORY
    Born: Osaka Japan

    Now lives: Tokyo-3

    Lives with: No one

    Relationship status: Single

    Educational Background: He has gone to public school for his entire life.

    Socioeconomic Level (child): working class

    Socioeconomic Level (adult): n/a

    Occupation: Student/part time convenience store cashier (before becoming a pilot that is)

    Income: 30860 yen per week

    Talents/Skills:
    • He has learned a self taught style of fighting to handle street fights quite well
    • Between going to school and working, he has learned to manage his time well and run off of minimal amount of sleep.

    Background: Jin was born in 2001 to a single mother. His family was his mother and sister only, their father abandoning them after Jin was conceived. It was him, his mother, and 5 year old sister Sora. Around the age of 10, their mother died, leaving Sora and Jin on their own. Sora began to work and quit school, doing whatever she could to keep Jin in school and fed. Eventually, it led to a life of being a whore, and she dabbled in drugs as well with her customers. She died from an overdose when Jin was 12, and he was left in the care of his Uncle and Aunt. They owned their own apartment complex and let Jin stay in his own room in exchange for him paying a heavily reduced rent, so he picked up a job to pay for the rent.


    NERV INFORMATION
    Marduk Report order: (Given by Marduk)
    Plugsuit design: Jin's plugsuit is of a yellow and blue design, mainly the torso being of blue, yellow lines throughout the design and limbs, and then with black trims.
    Evangelion unit number: (Assigned by NERV)
    Evangelion design: Here

    So here's a semi finished version of the character I wish to use. It's not 100% completed, but it's really more to get the basic idea of what I want for the character known, and too see the critique people have of it

    HISTORY
    Aliases (if any): N/A
    Born: Strasbourg, France
    Now lives: Tokyo III, Japan
    Lives with: None
    Relationship status: Single
    Educational Background: Spent most of his early years in special education to overcome his disability, but then attended public school while undergoing training at NERV.
    Socioeconomic Level (child): Government Dependant
    Socioeconomic Level (adult): N/A
    Occupation: Student, Evangelion Pilot
    Income: 2000 ¥/Week Allowance
    Talents/Skills:
    • Models and paints miniatures as a hobby
    • Studies and practices technical drafting
    • Savant in mechanical engineering
    • Eva pilot with most experience (in simulators and synchronization tests)
    • Excellent at three-dimensional thinking and calculation
    Background: Half French and Half Japanese, moved to Japan when very young, and was raised by NERV after his mother's death.
    Bio: Yuichi was born to the couple of Gaspard and Aoi Béarn (nee Kaitan) in Strasbourg, the parliament seat of the European Union. Both parents were world-renowned mechanical engineers that had come to work on the E Project in NERV's Third Branch. in Europe. His father was killed in a food riot in Berlin shortly after his first birthday, and as such Yuichi has no memory of him. When it was discovered that Yuichi suffered from dyslexia (a learning disability limiting the recognition of language), his mother insisted on spending as much time with him as possible, always talking to him, to assist in his therapy. As such, he was often taken to work with her in the NERV installations throughout Europe. The two were practically inseparable, and Yuichi gained a great admiration for his mother and her line of work.

    The two eventually made the transition to the Main Branch of NERV in Toyko III, where Aoi was overseeing the final developments of the technical systems for the Evangelion Units under construction, including their power supplies and the Entry Plug system. However, a freak accident that Yuichi was unfortunately present for claimed the life of his mother and exposed Yuichi to high-concentration LCL. The exposure did little harm to Yuichi, aside from some superficial burns that soon healed, but the pigmentation of his hair and skin were both altered, bleaching his skin from its Okinawan-Mediterranean tan to an almost Celtic pale, and turning his fair hair a vibrant blue near its ends. Far more adverse the face that Yuichi was now an orphan. Though he soon became a ward of the state, NERV "adopted" him following his selectrion by the Marduk Institute. In addition to being placed in the standard Evangelion pilot classes, he was raised among the staff of the Main Branch, who he came to see as his family. Yuichi learned early on that he was to pilot the Evangelion, and he considered his destiny a means to thank the people who looked after him when he had nothing, and to honor his mother's life work. He worked hard to overcome his disability, and trained with NERV as much as they would allow him to. He seeks to eventually design the next generation of Evangelion technology, so as to further his beloved mother's legacy.

    I think the "gender issues" could be explained a bit better, in order to understand why the character struggles with that. Aside from this, it sounds okay.

    Bear in mind, all of you, that as of now, we have four pilot character applications. This means anyone else who applies now will mean some pilots may be redundant. As you understand, it'll be a tough decision for me to make, but 4 pilots is the absolute maximum the RP can start with, and that will not be changed. So if we have 5 pilots or more, at least one character (or more) will have to be left out, no matter how good I think they are. I do not mean to scare people off and cause them not to apply their "pilot" characters, but at the same time I hope if people do not get to play a pilot, they won't leave. I'm making this very clear from the beginning because I can imagine how frustrating it may be for those who may not get to play what they originally wanted, and it's only fair that you know this.

    Something else... the RP will start at the (in-scene) date of April 12th 2015, so every character so far starts at being 13 year old, not 14!! (Unless they were born before April 12th 2001). Just a bit of information I thought I would give so that you guys can have it even more accurate.

    Well darn. That would mean I'm the fifth pilot since I didn't get the profile up in time. :/

    Never mind then. Maybe I can draft up a few other characters. Do you have any organization roles/figures that you need filled, or operators that serve a particular agenda?

    Or, if you're willing, I could draft the designs for the Angels presuming we aren't rehashing the fifteen/sixteen originally fought.

    I posted a list of necessary/helpful OOCs in the IntCheck thread, if you want to look into that.
