I'm caught up (for the most part) on homework. So, I'm about to attempt to put up the IC before I head off to work. The past couple of weeks have been insane for me, guys. :/

If I don't get it up right this second, I may pass the torch to Shelton until I can do something, and let him start us off. His character was kinda the leader of this whole thing, in the last RP anyways :)

I'm really glad you're all still around after my ridiculous absence.

I'm addressing you, but making a note for everyone. So far there are 10 people who have posted CS's. The last time this RP was successful, there were around 20 characters. I'm going to set the limit, for not, to 12.

If you're dropping out, or anything, please let me know so that I can open up your spot. For now...there are two spots left for characters.

And one more thing. I was too busy to get my post up before work. So, I will wait out most of the night, and see if I'm out of class tomorrow (we should be, because we're under like 9 inches of snow and ice). If I am, we can REALLY get this thing rolling. If not, I'll get my post up first thing in the morning, and then you guys can take it from there, until I can pop back in inbetween classes :D

Does that mean that thus far everyone is accepted?

The WASR-10 that is the first time I have seen someone go for that variant of weapon. Curious was it motivated or just random?

Motivated, I read a book not too long ago where the dude buying the featured mercenary squads guns reckoned it was the best make of the weapon. Personally I'm not sure how true that is, but it was memorable enough to motivate me to go for it. :)

I never knew this was up! I'm still in if you want me?

Actually that is quite true because the earlier version had what you call a small trigger problem where when you pulled the trigger the bolt would fly back hit the trigger mechanism and in turn this hits your fingers at the same time. So basically the older version hurt to use for long periods of time. The ten is actually the version where they modified the trigger and bolt action so that it no longer flings back and hurts your finger plus the clip was modified more like the AK-47, however the clip works a lot better with the 10 because the older versions often would malfunction or the feed would get damaged because of the awkward loading of the clip.

Dude wth is wrong with you? Probably how you get your kicks whatever. Reported.

Kodiak/Ozias, glad to have you back and thank you for reporting the troll, saved me and AB the trouble.
That said, I'd like you to pick a different character for this RP, primarily because Nero/Moretti is just too...unrealistic. This RP's crowning achievement has always been how real and brutal things are and how believable the characters are. Dual wielding suppressed pistols (which doesn't work very well by the way) while hack-slashing zombies with a samurai sword doesn't really fit the bill. He doesn't have to be joe-schmo average-guy, but he needs to be really believable, almost tangible. Basically, try to picture meeting him in person right now today and if you can't really envision that, then you should go with a different charrie.

Everyone else is accepted without any issues.

Wired, I would like for our characters to meet and for mine to possibly take on a sensei-ish mentor role with yours. The two would relate well to each other over their murderous hatred for raiders and tragic losses caused by them and I think it'd be neat to see Matt (my guy) training him a little and helping him exact his streak of revenge. To keep from spoiling things and cluttering the OOC, please PM me if you are interested.

So would you like me to just change his weapons then? Idk if the CIA thing has anything to do with your decision but if it did I could just clarify that he was not a secret agent or anything like that. In the last Role play there was a skills section, one in which I put Photographic memory and I made him a CIA Analyst so that he was not how do you say I know every fighting move known to man or I can shoot you from ten miles off with ease type of thing. Its was more or less because his one if only talent is he is intelligent because of his ability to remember things really well. The weapons which I have no real problem changing are synonymous with his small time in the military, I didn't want to give him a high powered rifle or sub machine gun so I gave him two side arms and secondary weapons. Realistically its been a year, and he would know better then to discharge a weapon that was not silenced so I figured the silencer would be ok. Altho the other mods I could see them being a bit out there. He is similar to my first character but will be different this time.

I'm about to make my first post. It's short and sweet, but gets us right into the present day. :)

And Vertical, you're accepted. :)

If you can make all those changes AND get rid of his shitty action movie attitude from Survival, then he might work. But he needs to have a believable personality, everyone can't be a hardass and I'd prefer it if almost no one was in this RP (at least not all the time)
I remind you, in Survival, he killed a sewer alligator with a katana and CUT OUT ITS HEART. This is more the gritty, personal drama type of RP that follows the show. So, yeah, just make sure you take care of that and you're good. Main thing is that a suppressor can be hard to find so having two on (and USING) two pistols at once is a bit much. Duel wielding pistols doesn't work. And in the military, (depending on branch) most people don't get a lot of training with handguns. You would literally get more and better practice at a civilian self defense course taught by a squared away school/instructor. Just for the record.

Well i understand the confusion because you never asked this but I had no real intention of using both pistols at the same time, they are each a weapon of their own. Primary and secondary, because as I mentioned before I didn't give him a rifle or a machine gun, these will be his only weapons for the time being, an the thought was if one runs out then he can grab the other if in intense situations. As for the last role play I had no real intention of playing him like that this time, more or less this time I intended to bring his age out and show him in a newer light. Your third point even as an Analyst he has to take training to work in the CIA, firearms proficiency such as pistols is in fact one such requirement as it is for police FBI etc etc. So he has taken classes in using small firearms thus giving him two pistols main arm and back up. Im not trying to be hardass this time. Im making him how do you say, vulnerable not in a emotional type of way but no more alligator fights def.

Law Enforcement handgun qualification usually isn't much better than the military's (just an FYI so you know what to reasonably expect of him, basic marksmanship would be good but not much else)
Anyway, you're fine, go ahead. You can have two M9s and all that. No swords though. It's a pet peeve of mine. Kinda'.

Ok is having a Machete ok then? Plus i removed the mods and just went with silencers.
