I'm new, I'm old, I've been around the block and back, and now I'm here to bless you with my silliness.

Ladies and gentlemen.

Green grocers and fish mongers,

World of Warcraft drones and DOTA spetznaz,

May I present to you this piece of glorious artwork, the likes of which has never been seen and probably never will be seen again in our life time.

Roll up, roll up, and state thy interest!

Green Life


A wAcKy Role Play


In the Name of Longer Lasting Lettuce!


You're a high flying science whizz, working in some desolate top secret government facility located way out in the Nevada desert. For years, you and your colleagues have strived to alleviate mankind of his great burden - perishable greens, that go bad far too quickly. On the cusp of a substantial breakthrough, however, you and your team accidentally established a wormhole to an alien world.

Naturally, hordes of aliens of every variety have poured through this wormhole, and are running rampant around the Longer Green Life Inc facility. They're confused, somewhat primitive, but absolutely very deadly. Security did what they could, but there's only so much that half full doughnut boxes and tasers can do against extra terrestrial life forms.

So as one may expect, the natural evolution of this catastrophe was for the appearance of government death squads, sent in to kill, kill, kill! Helicopters, blackops squads, nuclear devices with ambiguous count downs - you name it - they've got it!

And to make matters worse? You've still got 5 minutes left on your lunch break. I mean yeah, the possibility of death is climbing by the second, but there's no way you're going to leave the canteen and get to work on saving your ass in your own time. No way. That's how they get you! Better to leave it, so that you're saving yourself on the company's time. That way you're getting paid for doing something that ultimately benefits you, get it? That's why you're a scientist, because intelligent thoughts like these are common in that brain of yours.

Still, when it is time to leave the canteen, bear in mind that you're on the facility's lowest level, encased in rock, and that there's about 50 floors of crazy science shiz, aliens and ooh-rah marines that you've gotta fight through. Good thing you're a scientist, who is perfectly capable of merging the microwave and the toaster into some kind of death ray, or jury rigging the fridge into an ice cannon.

Science!

Rules


There should be a whole bunch of stuff here, but an alien ate it. So um, just be nice to each other I guess, and try to have fun? Certainly don't take anything seriously.

This is like Half-Life meets Airplane.

History: Urgh, I mean, this is totally optional. Don't think anyone is really going to care about your character's daddy issues in this, unless of course they're hilariously relevant.

Character Example


Name: Fordon Mreeman

Age: 27

Gender: Male

Appearance: Fat Caucasian guy, with short ginger hair and goatee. Wears a lab-coat, and thick framed glasses. Has a constant serious expression at all times.

Weapons: Four slice toaster rigged to the microwave, creating a mini-Hadron collider that fires out toast at frightening speeds; capable of penetrating tank armour. Needs bread as ammo.

Known Skills: Manages never to talk, like, EVER. He's not mute, he just doesn't talk. Like, he'll sit there staring at you the whole time you're talking and not say anything. Instead he just stares at you. It gets creepy real quick but for some reason we hired him so yeah whatever.

It's stupid enough to work. And so am I.
I'll see if I can't get something together in a timely-ish manner.
EDIT: Like this:

Name: Dr. Mitch "Joe" Johannes

Age: 32

Gender: Male

Appearance:
Average-built 5'10" white male. Semi-short dark brown hair with sideburns and forward-spiked bangs. Has blue eyes and a somewhat thin face. Always has a tiny bit of stubble around his chin that he just can't quite shave off properly. Typically seen with a neutral near-frown on his face. Wears a half-buttoned labcoat over a black button shirt, red tie, and brown slacks. He's near-sighted, but has fair enough vision; he has rectangular glasses in his coat pocket, but only uses them if he has to.

Weapons:
Managed to make a sort of lighting railgun, with a spare Tesla Coil and a jury-rigged miniature particle accelerator. Powered by a lithium-ion battery; pretty good longevity, but good luck finding a spare one of those. It's like turning a taser into a rifle: it's really powerful, especially against living things. Unfortunately, it lacks punch and is not very strong against materials - anything more than a combat vest can shrug off the electric shots.
(Is probably going to steal a gun at some point.)

Known Skills:
- PhD's in Physics and Natural Science
- Mild ambidexterity
- Not half bad at darts
- A creative linguist (with equally creative cuss words)
- For some reason, his thermoregulation is such that he never feels particularly hot or cold in otherwise normal environments.
- Managing to create the weapon above, obviously

:D you people are gonna go far in life, I can tell. It's almost as if you've all just walked in here, and right away I know I'm talking to the future leaders of the free world... or maybe injecting green tea into my eye balls has given me some kind of weird trip. Time will tell.

But anyway, let's get down to business. I'll see if I can combine my mouse and keyboard into some kind of RP spawning device, that will be super effective against boredom :D

I'll get a link in here somewheres once I got it up.

Woop, woop!

This sounds like the next literary masterpiece, Sir Sentient Shed! As an aspiring author, looking to write the next Hamlet, I'd be honored to have a hand in this glorious undertaking. I can just picture our rise to fame! All the adoring fans, the money, the awards, the free popcorn chicken.... I'm in 100%!

I do have one question, though. Can we have more than one character? I have a jolly good idea for two characters that play off of each other. So I'd like to know if I can use both of them, or if I have to deprive them of each others' company.

EDIT: I made up character sheets of my two characters. I'll go ahead and post them here.

Have as many characters as you want, have an army of them if you want. In fact, you could create so many that you could lead them through the wormhole and invade the alien world and take it over. Take that, sci-fi cliche!

That is quite a nice title! I am impressed at your ability to pick up my innate skills and future job title at a casual glance. That is quite a skill, my friend. I've never told anyone of my secret plan to take over a pharmaceutical company, and I thought my invisibility motocross jacket hid my intergalactic dragon-slaying bouts. Well, I guess you get what you pay for. Stupid infomercial lied to me.

Ah grand! I think two characters shall suffice for me, unless Gerald and Chester find some way to clone themselves. Personally, I don't think the world could handle that much idiocy, though. It might implode.
