Plot: Murder with a side of hell, served up on a silver platter.

Background: The city has a supernatural task force, which is basically freelance, except when the city's police deem their cases are more than meets the eye and delves into the realm of the supernatural. The task force was started by Max Avendir (my character for the RP). All the members of the task force have "powers", if you will. They are able to detect and see the supernatural, as well as use dark magic of witchcraft and wizardry. Most of the cases of the task force deal with missing person stolen items and the occasional murder.
The city is New Horn city. Similar to NYC. Task force is S.I.N. Supernatural Investigative Network. The task force usually deals with both combating monsters by use of their weapons, powers and magic use and non combative tasks. There are swords and guns and silver bullets and magic. Nothing militaristic.

I like you guys to post as much as you can when you can. At least once a day if possible.

Here's my character:

Name: Max Avendir
Age: 25
Gender: male
Weapons: Buster Sword

Appearance:
But he has the buster sword strapped to his back.

Personality: He's a bit set in his ways, sort of cocky and has a dark sense of humor

Bio: Leader of the task force, discovered his "power" when he was 18. He lived with his mother, as his father had left when he was only 2. One night he came home to find his mother killed and her body left on the floor with her eyes still open. Max closed his mothers eyes and prayed for her safe to heaven, but as he closed her eyes he saw the ones who killed her and he freaked out, started crying, fell over and leaned on his mother's body and saw the image of the killers again. It was at this point that he realized this must be something he could do and deemed to find the killers and avenge his mothers death. When he was 20 he met a guy who told him that he should use the gift to help people, but when he started his own freelance detective agency, he encountered all the supernatural occurrences and shortly after the task force was formed.

I am really looking forward to seeing what you guys come up with for characters. And very eager to start the IC.

Age: 23
Gender: Female
Weapons: Long bow and black fetched arrows.
Appearance:
Personality: Kind and warm to everyone, save people she feels are bad, to those she is neutral.
Bio: She discovered her power from a young age, though not an amazing power, it has served her well enough in her life. She has extended site and has spent her life building it up and training it so she can see almost anything on earth as it's happening. She still has trouble getting her site to focus, so she generally just sees as far as an American football field. She lived a relatively normal life until she was invited to join S.I.N.

Grigori (right) and The Cleansuit (left)


Name: Grigori ben Judah

Age: 64

Gender: Definitely male.

Weapons: Grigori wears a spectacularly defensible "suit" of armor he affectionately calls the Cleansuit. The Cleansuit is a thick layer of enchanted clay, reinforced several times over through both runic magic and iron rebars. Movement in The Cleansuit is heavily restricted, but doesn't impede his air circulation and cannot overheat with him in it. While wearing The Cleansuit, Grigori's strength is magically amplified, allowing him to actually move in it. The Cleansuit weighs over three hundred pounds, and has a significant weak point in the form of a hatch in the back, where Grigori enters and exits it from.

Personality: Grigori is monstrously paranoid at all times, because he knows exactly what's waiting for him when he dies. Grigori refuses to ever step out of his suit unless he can confirm that he will be totally safe from outside attack. When not gleefully enjoying the degree of power given by his suit, Grigori is eternally offended by the numerous crimes both real and fake committed by mundane forces against the magical community of New Horn City.

Bio: Grigori was the child of a family of refugees who fled to America during World War II. Born in 1951, Grigori grew up in a small ethnic enclave that would later come to be known as "Little Fincayra". Being that Little Fincayra held the single greatest concentration of witches and wizards in all of New England, Grigori spent most of his childhood either observing or being taught by the enclave's colorful inhabitants. At the age of 15, Grigori moved out of Little Fincayra and began wandering the country with a band of hippies just as the 60s began getting into their cultural upswing. Grigori traveled for 20 years, going on spirit quests, consorting with ancient beings, and consuming prodigious amounts of psychedelic drugs. As the haze of the 70s wound down and the hippie movement began petering out, Grigori gradually realized exactly what he had been doing. All the spirit quests and confrontations with ancient magic had both enlightened him of the nature of the other world and enlightened the other world of him. Grigori spiritually gleamed like a beacon in the abyss, and all the squiggly beasts of the Dungeon Dimensions decided they'd rather fancy a piece of him. Panicking all the while, Grigori hitchhiked and commuted his way across the country back to New Horn City and back to his home in Little Fincayra.

Grigori's mental state rapidly deteriorated as he pored over his family's tomes on the afterlife and the Dungeon Dimensions. With each vivid description of what happens to people in his situation described in the book, Grigori grew more and more fearful of his own death. To die at any point would be to fall right into the arms of the ineffable beings cloying for him at the edge of his mortal coil. And so, Grigori dedicated himself to prolonging his death as much as possible. To this end, he invented the Cleansuit, a battery of magical and mundane defenses designed to prevent as much harm as possible. Decorated like a true juggernaut, Grigori earned the cautious respect of Little Fincayra and notoriety within the community as "Grigori the Watchful". Brimming with confidence in the Cleansuit's defenses, Grigori threw himself into assisting and protecting Little Fincayra as much as possible, earning him the attention of the New Horn City Police Department. After explaining himself, Grigori was given a brief ultimatum: assist the Supernatural Investigation Network, or be arrested for possession of lethal and illegal enchantments. Grigori, too proud and too fearful to give up his Cleansuit, took them up on the offer and became the Supernatural Investigation Network's official magical community liaison. If there was ever a paranormal goings-on that needed to be solved sensitively and socially, Grigori was the one who knew how to solve it best.

Name: Nicholas Grey
Age: 39
Gender: M
Weapons: Whatever his Sponsors Provide; His Favorite Sponsor-weapon is the Home Depot Cold Iron Chainsaw


Appearance: Underneath the mask, Nicholas has rather white skin. He has bright blue eyes, and black hair which goes all the way to the back of his neck. His hair is always combed fairly well (except when he initially takes his mask off). He doesn't have "sharp" facial features, and over-all looks like an average man.

Personality: Nicholas is a glory-hound, who cares most about winning the big race. He is also a vehement defender of humanity, who will go out and strike down all who oppose the righteousness of the human race. Though he wasn't always such a gung-ho fanatic fighter against these creatures, (in fact he used to be a complete coward who would freak out at the sign of non-human lifeforms. And while he is a defender of man, he does care most about his own hide.). He is incredibly narcissistic and rather unrefined. He is also a magnificent mechanic and tinkerer, able to "MacGyver" many strange tools that are useful to him.

Bio: Nicholas Grey lived a normal childhood, in a kind orphanage, for a few years. (Nicholas is rather confused about why so many orphans have tragic stories, but that is besides the point.). He lived in the orphanage until he was adopted by a nice suburban couple. While in their care he learned a lot about racing, as he always watched it with his adopted family whenever a race was on. It was there he decided to train to become a Racer. Once he made it as a driver, he grew arrogant as his wins increased. One day at an unsuspecting casino gig he was attacked by zombies and some vampires (he does not know what set them off, but the casino quickly became infected by zombies and vampire thralls). It was there he learned he had some rare gene which prevented him from being turned into a Super-natural creature, and with that push he became a vehement defender of humanity, sworn to protect man from the creatures that go bump in the night. (It really does appeal to his narcissistic view of himself).

Other: Nicholas Grey is unable to be turned into a Super-natural creature. Nicholas Grey is well known for his incredible success on the race track, a few schlocky Action Films and Romantic Comedies, alongside heroism against spooky supernatural creatures. His Corporate Sponsors are quite happy to supply him with stuff as long as he keeps shilling them on their behalf.

Name: Connor Gylen
Age: 24
Gender: Male
Weapons: Subtle, yet deadly efficient weaponry/gadgets. The first, in fact, is an ordinary umbrella...only, the actual umbrella is bullet-proof - made of a carefully cultivated alloy that resists wear, tear, and high-caliber rounds. At the tip of the umbrella, high-caliber bullets are launched, and it is reloaded by the handle. He can see through the bullet-proof canopy, as the bottom of it is holographic/one-way-see-through, and through the canopy, any enemy targets are highlighted. Other gadgets is a Zippo lighter, which is actually a grenade that is activated by lighting it, a pen that issues a fast-acting venom through the tip, shoes that sprout short daggers from the toes with a click of the heels, and a golden ring on his right index finger, that issues thousands of volt of electricity on contact, whenever Connor applies pressure to the back of the ring - by making a fist, for example. His suit is bullet-proof, as well.

b]Personality:[/b] Connor comes off as a confident, polite, and emotionally distant young man that treats everyone relatively the same ;; obviously, superiors get more respect, but he won't treat anyone like shite unless they ask for it, and no one's going to get their ass licked. He could come off as cocky at times, but it's charming, and he is also not against perversion, as long as the female is accepting.

Name: Agent Jack Bright
Age: Classified.
Gender: Male.
Weapons: Two automatic machine pistols. The grips are made from wood from the True Cross, the barrels are made from a melted-down church bell from the Vatican. The bullets range from ones made with fallen meteors, ones forged from the nails that hung Jesus, ones made from the teeth of a shoggoth, to ones made from the eyes of a Hound of Tindalos.

Personality: Some people have pervasive or extremely noticeable personality quirks, but somehow remain faithfully employed because they are just that good at what they do. Jack Bright is one of these people. While he is untrustworthy, dishonest, and possibly a sociopath, his competence as an Agent is unquestionable. He's worked major cases that he refuses to talk about to "The Man" and has survived encounters with Elder Gods. He's retired from the GOC, and considers working for something like SIN "like the equivalent of being a Wal-Mart greeter"- more of a hobby than a needed career, given the substantial pension from the GOC.
Bio: Agent Jack Bright is an enigma. He has experience with the supernatural, however, having worked for a mysterious organization of Men in Black called the "Global Occult Coalition." Any inquiries into the subject are met with mutterings about "above your paygrade" and "that's classified." A number of his claims check out, however: The sunken cities of Atlantis and Ry'leh HAVE been burnt down. Baron Orlock was found beheaded and hanging upside down by a snare in the Wallachia sunlight in his castle courtyard. All that SIN has Security Clearance for regarding Jack Bright's illustrious career is a single list, which Jack stapled to his resume. But some of the entries are telling as to just what sort of person Jack is- and just what sort of work he did.
4shared.com/office/2Nt5Jq9Xce/Not-Allo..
Other: He's one of the Men In Black. Not the ones from the cartoons- the ones from the Conspiracy Theory and the comic books.

Scorpio's intent is to ride the Brightmobile with Grandpa Grigori and Uncle Jack. It seems like the right thing to do, given Max's suspicious actions. Plus, they really enjoy going for rides.

My personal intention? I intend for Scorpio to be themself. Whatever may come, Scorpio does their thing themself. I just write the words.

What is going on here? I am trying to just go about the RP based on a plot in mind and a few of you are going against my character and seem to think I've been brainwashed. I have not. I'm just trying to convey a plot out in the RP, but you are taking your characters and giving them bias towards my character based on my actions. You're not seeing how this is playing out. You're forming your own opinions off the bat.

I am the GM and i am setting the plot and the guidelines of which the RP is going. If you thought I was "Brainwashed", you could have kindly shot a post in OOC or even PM me to ask, not just go about thinking it. IT is not part of my plot or the game. If you continue this line of thought I am going to have to ask you to leave.

Any issues or questions, please direct them at me and "DO NOT" go about thinking it is what you believe it to be. It may very well not be what you thought.

Thank You.

I'm going by my character's IC knowledge. Basically, he knows:

  • He is wanted by a wide variety of aliens, demons, and other spooky spirits.
  • For some reason, his boss has ordered everyone in the network to, instead of meeting together at the network's base or a top-secret location, meet at a random coffee shop.
  • When not everyone in the network showed up, his boss decided against checking up on them and instead decided to leave with a half-full net.
  • His boss then told everyone there to meet him in a shady alleyway in the bad part of town.
  • His boss was using unusually casual slang when talking about an apparent crime that he supposedly needed to solve.


Going by what Grigori understands about his boss and how a high-class demon-hunting network of detectives should act, he came to the conclusion that this isn't actually Max Avendir who set this all up. Grigori then assumed that something-- or someone-- managed to capture Max, forcibly seize control of him, and is now hunting down the members of S.I.N by luring them into traps disguised as crime scenes.

@Scrapula Well this isn't the case. You can not just assume. It creates chaos because other people will follow based on previous posts and might take it from your perspective and thats not what we want here.

Your reasoning would be correct but in this case this is not what happened and we are not set up as a task force with a base and a secret location or any of that. we work freelance. So we can't meet at a headquarters since we don't have one.

If you need more clarification of things, please ask and do not assume.

Thank You.

@antman0623
So what you're saying here is that you don't want anybody thinking at all. No freedom. No actions except those approved by the ruling body, which is you. No interesting story twists.

No roleplaying.

Why did you make this a roleplaying game if you didn't intend for anyone to roleplay? I'm fine with a few rails on a roleplay, but refusing to allow others to think for themselves because it doesn't line up precisely with what you want? That's underhanded and just stupid. Misunderstandings happen in real life. There is no reason whatsoever for misunderstandings to not happen in a game. They make things more interesting and realistic, and if played well they can be a source of fun.

If you want a story where you control all the characters and everyone agrees on everything, you don't need other people. All you need is Microsoft Word.
