Just before it got quiet on the Titan Space Station, just before the famous (or infamous) Isaac Clarke awoke and escaped... just before the darkness became scary... it wasn't quiet. It was loud. Full of screams, glass shattering, items thrown, and the sounds of the Necromorphs roared in every room. It was chaos, bodies being mutilated, people being attacked, bones shattering, There was no taking back the space station, the only thing left to do was to escape, before the madness took you over, too.

The jist? A surviving group amongst the chaos tries to escape, following maps and routes similar to the ones Isaac takes later on. I do consider this roleplay serious, and by serious I only mean, your character can die. However, I'm going to exclude any madness and craziness as also in the movies and some people in the games didn't go mad and stayed alright. Whether it was because they weren't weak willed, or immune, or whatever it was. There will be crazed people, but our group won't go insane. And if/when someone dies, the player may continue in the roleplay as another survivor found along the way. However, this part is where I will include madness. I doubt it will happen but this is the way we will combat stupidity... if a player causes their character to be too stupid and get killed too much... the more characters the player introduces... the more crazed and useless they will be until they become murderous, to the point they will play an enemy in the game.





After we are full, I may allow more survivors to be found (Which can be helpful too, like an example being if we go through any labs, and we find a scientist, they might be able to navigate the area better, have extra gear like medpacks or stasis packs. Or if we find another Engineer they may have special weapons or gear)

Hey, so even though it seems as if you already have four members in your interest check, me and my friend was wondering if you'd be accepting two civilian survivors?

Name: (Alexis) Sergeant Taylor
Appearance:



Profession: Titan Security Officer
History: Taylor was never very fond of being a bruteful or brash security officer, but her father served as one for many years and she looked up to him. Later on after always recognizing her father as a hero and great father for taking care of her after her mother died, they were transferred aboard the Titan Space Station. However soon after the transfer, her father had to leave the security job due to his age, but mostly because he was dying due to an illness he had kept away from her. As he was her father, guardian, and caretaker, he didn't want to look weak in front of his daughter. Now gone, she's been looked at to take his place, and fill his shoes. She even wears his old suit which is much too large for her. It wasn't too hard to get into the Security detail as the other officers trusted her, the ones who knew her father anyway. And also the fact her father encouraged her to become Security as the benefits were good to live off of and it wasn't a hard job. Taking her to the firing ranges, practice runs, and other drills needed for the detail, she grew to know how to get through it rather quickly.

Suit: Standard Security Suit (Aged)
Weapons: EarthGov Pulse Rifle
Additional Gear: 2 Power Nodes, 1 Small Medpack, 300 (3 packs) Pulse Rifle Ammunition (One in use)

Name: Daniel Shepherd
Appearance: Profession: Cook (someone had to make the food)
History: Life was rough for Daniel. Money was tight, as were resources and it seemed no place was willing to give him a damn decent wage. He sort of bounced place to place, taking odd jobs when he could. It was only when he got to an old diner he discovered a love of cooking. He was good at it too, his coworkers agreed. He was a natural and the job paid well enough. Life was good for awhile, at least until the old place shut down. With even less jobs open now, Daniel was desperate, and in this state he found a job offer. Come to a space station to help cook? Why the hell not, the pay was good and it was better than the alternative; besides, he'd always wanted to see space, what could go wrong?

Suit: N/A
Weapons: N/A
Additional Gear: 4 rations, kitchen knife, 200 credits.

Civilians won't have armor or weapons, but can probably stop at a suit/rig shop at some point and get something (But for this roleplay the stores won't sell guns, guns have locations instead). And you could be a cook at one of the shops. It's a city station, not a military installation, haha.

Alright, sorry. This was a little rushed I'm so so sorry.

Alright, sorry. This was a little rushed I'm so so sorry.

Hey no worries yer fine!

I really want to join this but there are two things I want to know:

1) What is the dedication on this going to be? I have a lot of stuff going on over the summer but this is really interesting

2) Is it okay if I don't know the finer points of the DS universe? I know the lore and what's going on but I'm not great with weapons, locations or rig types.

@ClocktowerEchos I know a few things of Dead Space like most of the weapons that you come across from Dead Space 1 and 2 hard mostly either engineering or equipment like the plasma cutter would be an engineering tool, while the line gun was used for mining. The pulse rifle was pretty much the only military weapon. Though its been awhile since I played the games there might be more.

The location of the RP is placed on the space station called Titan Station, or you can simply just call it the Sprawl which is on Saturn's Moon titan which was is the site of the first planet crack.

And there are four types of RIGs, the engineering RIG which is used by Isaac Clarke and is also used for mining. There is the Security RIG which would be what Sprawl security personnel would wear. And theres the Military RIG which is what the soldiers would normally wear. Then the Civilian RIGs which don't have any armor at all. Hope that helps. :)

@Nallore Thanks but I've done some research on the Dead Space wikia and learned enough to know what's going on and what to give my guy.

Name: Zhang Sitrung
Appearance:

Profession: Engineer/Mechanic
History: Zhang knows very little of his past or his parents, the first things he remembers was being taught how to fix a flashlight by a group of Engineers. He grew up around power tools and workbenches, proving himself to be a very handy and creative kid who at the age of 10 was already trying to work on improving plasma cutters (this was met with very mixed results). As the next decade of his life rolled around, he seemed work in his field of engineering and eventually landed on the Titan Station at age 25. Work wasn’t too hard, pay was good and he had time to mess around on his own projects, life seemed to be good as he even started to try to dive into his own past about his parents.
Suit: Makeshift armor consisting of a metal chest piece, fore arm guards, tight protectors and shin guards over his normal work suit*
Weapon:711-MarkCL Rivet Gun with a flashlight duct taped to it
Other Gear: 4 Rivet clips w/ one in the gun, a wrench, a hammer and two batteries

*The reason he isn't wearing an Engineering RIG is since he was on when the infection started and locked himself in his workshop for a little bit to create his armor. If this is a bit too out-there as a concept, I'm more than happy to change it over to an incomplete Engie RIG

Name: Corporal Byron Veikkaus
Appearance:




Profession: Titan Station Security Personnel.
History: Despite his usual pessimistic outlook on things, Byron really loved the station he was living on and wanted to do more for it. Growing up he typically under achieved though he had more than enough of an ability to over do so. He was just lazy, and this did not get very much positive attention from Byron's rather strict parents, in fact it was the opposite. Besides this, his upbringing was quite normal, or even too much for Byron. He got older and wanted more, wanted to do more, experience more things. Byron had always been confident, so he decided to become a security officer for the space station, but was noticed quickly by his fellow comrades and quite frowned upon for his laid back attitude. Surprisingly enough to them, Byron did was he was told, and got stuff done. Efficiently too, but this was only when he wanted to do so. Yet he only found himself at a dead end again, petty crimes and rifle wielding still did not satisfy what he was looking for. This was until recently. Byron's parents were both missing. What would someone want to do with a couple so old of age? He never expected it, and neither did anyone else. A short investigation took place only days before the oncoming storm that was about to be a necromorph outbreak.

Suit: Standard Riot Security Suit.
Weapons: SWS Motorized Pulse Rifle w/ Grenade Launcher Secondary Fire, 211-V Plasma Cutter (Sidearm).
Additional Gear: x1 Medium Medical Pack, x1 Power Node, Various Magazines and forms of ammunition, x2 Ration Packs, x2 Water Sacks, Flashlight & Batteries.

Name: Riley Griffin

Appearance:

Profession: Miner/Engineer

History: Riley was born and raised on Earth both of her parents were Unitologists, or what other people few them as "Marker Heads", or "Rock Heads" whichever people called them, both of her parents were well ranking members of the religion donating their money to the Church even as going as far as using Riley's own college fund to give to the Church of Unitology. The moment she turned eighteen Riley took the first chance and moved as far away from her parents, the only other relative was her sister who had the same opinions as she had. Riley went to college and eventually became an engineer as well as a little bit of mining and spent her early years on some Planet Cracker vessels before being assigned to Titan Station where her sister Amelia had been living for the past several years the two of them sharing the same apartment.

Suit:

Weapons: 211-V Plasma Cutter, Plasma Saw

Additional Gear: Three medium med packs, two large med packs, four plasma cutter clips.

I would prefer not everything be from scratch, as you are a hired Engineer for the space station and not a random, as if you have access to Engineering platforms, you get access to standard gear. You can have up to 24 Rivets, and they can be purchased in any store that is next to a workbench or in a non-civilian area. You can have either the Standard Engineering SUit, Forged Engineering Suit, or the Hazard Engineering SUit. Your options could be that you jammed the lock so you couldn't get out, the armor is having a malfunction, or after locking the door you were knocked out. But the problem with this route is that you are not initially a part of the main group. Which means it is quite possible they don't go the path you are in and find you. There is no solo running, if the group doesn't find the character, the character stays there. But I can put you in a workshop or two in convenient spots.

That Intimid8r is in Dead Space 3, not this time around tech. Yer suits gonna have to be, and look like, the Riot security Rig. And were you gonna be a higher or lower rank than Taylor? Gonna have to get a chat going with @Nallore about the Rock Saw Cutter, since the appearance of it is long before Dead Space 1, but yeah... And no on the Revolver, next gen weaponry.

@Heartfelt Gamer This good?

Everyone is using real pictures, maybe I should get on that bandwagon.

@ClocktowerEchos Yes but... why didn't you just edit your earlier post...?

Changed the suit.

@Heartfelt Gamer Whoops >.<

Changed the suit.

Alrighty. You both are going for forged? Eh alright

@Heartfelt Gamer I'm thinking of going over to the Hazard ver. if you want. Also, will the RIG's in game stats affect our characters?

Something else, I will be removing the idea of me trying to barricade myself since I no longer have a reason to do so.
