Out Of Character Initial Post: Character Creation
The following is the basic character template which players need utilize to create their characters. Unless specified otherwise, please do not remove portions of this character sheet, but feel free to add expanded or in-depth details; there are only minimums. As a suggestion, I recommend keeping a character "Plot Synopsis" section within your character sheet so that at a quick glance you can refer back to important details regarding your character.
Once you've completed your character sheet and posted it here, please wait until the game master approves it before posting in the topic. Note that the game master reserves the right to discredit portions of the sheet if they do not fit within the previously established rules and decline your application. Most discrediting (if any) will be the result of system gaming - clear, or obvious attempts to get the most effect for the minimal cost, or to power game or twist words with the goal being to make "the best character". While the game master is aware not all things are truly balanced, some semblance of structure is required for an efficient, mostly fair roleplay, and attempts to purposefully be disruptive in this manner will not be tolerated.
PLACE ALL CHARACTER SHEETS UNDER THE "CHARACTERS" SECTION
Name (and or Alias):(Utilize a realistic and or appropriate name. Aliases can be as a simple as one can imagine, but remember they are not actual names.)
Gender:(As gender.)
Age:(As age, minimum 18, maximum 60.)
Lineage:(For humans, treat as race. For inhumans treat as previous race, but also their inhumanity; ex, "Native American - Psychic".)
Fate:(For humans, begin with value of 3. For non-humans, begin with 2 or less. Provide description of expenditures.)
Relationship Status:(For characters who are in a relationship, note this here. For characters not with one, remove this line. Provide description.)

Out Of Character Initial Post: Deadline
The game will begin on 03MAR15 with the following players.
There Are No Heroes: Characters and Players
"Mercer" (Andrew Mercer) - The Harbinger of Ferocity
Henry Grimwald Moore - Orichalk
Moris "Moe" Valberg - Zashes
Michelle Darrens - Howler
The first, initial post will be placed on the in-character portion of this forum on the 3rd of March by the game master and give a general introduction to the setting, people, tone and world at hand. Treat it as a guideline as to how things are intended to be handled, and note, closely key elements such as time; given the nature of the roleplay, day, night, phase of the moon, or even hour are all relevant - consider how, if at all, you're impacting it by giving a flow to the plot.
The initialization post is up, giving a slight background and insight into the environment that is Clear Springs, Utah.
The first player to post will determine where all of the characters will more or less meet - my advice is a neutral place, such as a bar, a store, etc. Interactions from there totally depend on who and what your character is as an individual - I will jump in after there to provide the first few story elements.
Thanks for participating and getting your profiles together, @orichalk, @Howler, @Zashes.
I rather enjoy the (plot) I will get a character up sometime this week coming
Depending on if or when Howler posts will largely determine if I can approve a submission. Should Howler not post in the next few days, I will likely switch your slot to an active one once I approve your submission.
Sorry, I'm actually still alive and was just waiting for a moment to get a solid post out. Either way, got something up.
Excellent. I assumed you were just busy - I had seen you on now and then - so there was little doubt that I'd not see a post in the near future. All the same, thank you for doing so.
You can certainly submit a character for review; I personally would advise it, given that someone might not have the time or availability to continue with this topic and thus would need separate. No guarantee in the slightest such would transpire, but I greatly appreciate your interest all the same.
