Id like to expand on what I said about the character possibly being boring... The insanity-idea is cool for the first few posts because, well, he's crazy. However, it gets boring because a character like that doesnt have character development. Thus the character becomes quite flat. :(

When done well, insane characters are actually very interesting. They can really add to the plot in some cases.

I'm in an RP that's been going for a solid year now. There are two loonies in the group. One is played very well, while the other has gotten a bit stale.

I'd be down to see a crazy in the group.

My favorite crazy character was the type of guy who looked, dressed, and acted pretty damn normal in front of people. He also personally glued/hammered/etc. all his furniture upside-down onto the ceiling, and talked to the voices in his head via his broken cellphone.
Also, his 'broken cellphone' was actually a mushy plantain.
Malkavian fo' life~!

@IVIasterJay: Well, I mentioned to one of the other people who said they were interested, that there was still some form of observation going on early in the quarantine, which allowed the government to catch glimpses of survivors and cross-reference them with people in the records. So you could still include the insanity in the CS, or at least what was observed through the security cameras deep in the city and let people draw their own conclusions from the kind of behavior the CS implies.

I agree, sometimes those character archetypes can be really conducive to the story as well as the character development of other characters. However, I think its kind of hard to pull off and can really rely on everyone else (including the DM and their story) along with one's own skill...

I guess my comments were more of a warning than anything else.

Just a heads up, Voidhawk has changed their character from a citizen to a soldier. will update the list accordingly now =).@Voidhawk: Can I just ask you to clarify what your character's exact role in the operation will be (as I didnt seem to understand it very well). Will he be directing the air units from the Operating Base, or will he be directing them from within Valhalla City?

Number two. Right among the troops like a forward air controller. Really just marking landing sites and all.

@|V|asterJay: I'd say sometime around January 22nd, so there will be a gap of about 6 days from when the Spec Ops teams went silent. The U.N. has been planning a rescue for quite some time, and has only recently been cleared by the W.U. to make it happen. So despite how quickly it was commissioned, the ones going in will still be well-prepared.

Also, I'm sorry for the delay on the IC. I was writing it up, but we had a sudden power outage and it was only recently restored >_<. I'll get back to working on it now...

@|V|asterJay: Hell yes, I'm going to accept that! :D. That's a great CS and a very smart way of creating his insane persona while keeping it within the theme I was going for. Adding to the list now.

Wait until you see his little arsenal of pseudo-weapons of mass destruction. While everyone else was in a rush to grab all the guns and bullets they could for the end of their world, Ian was busy raiding the art and beauty departments. >:D Also, he doesn't call himself Anarchy. No one calls him Anarchy except the underpaid and overworked idiot that put together his citizen file. He's just Ian.

I will be looking forward to that indeed =). I will also look forward to how he shall affect the coming plot, and the role he will play in it. He's added to the list, now. I also added a new rule stating that if one of you guys will be inactive or busy for a while, to let me know in the OOC so we know if we should slow down for you or not.

Holy. Shit.
I was gone for just a few days and BOOM we have like 20 characters and a milion posts!
Naw but seriously I have some catching up to do now I guess xD Will be posting in the IC soon!

EDIT: I updated my CS and changed Lian's origins to that of an asian, to better fit her name. I also found a better appearance photo. Nothing huge has been changed.
